The AudioNotch Tinnitus Treatment Blog

Some individuals are fairly excited about the new research being done on Vagal Nerve Therapy. My current understanding is that this involves playing paired auditory tones with vagal nerve stimulation, in an effort to reverse the neuroplastic changes that occur from tinnitus. This firm has released a press release indicating that they are continuing to acquire successful funding to acquire clinical trials.

The Serenity® System is a neurostimulation based system with a small implanted battery and wires that internally connect to the vagus nerve in the neck. As part of the therapy, the patient wears headphones and every time the system plays a tone, it also automatically delivers a small amount of neurostimulation to the patient’s vagus nerve. This paired tone-stimulation treatment method is based on years of neuroscience research published in high impact journals.
