For some time now, medical research has hypothesised a
link between trauma to the head and neck and the onset of tinnitus. Consulting your
doctor is the first step to better understand the origin of the
cervical pain experienced, while a
hearing check carried out by a
hearing care professional can help form a diagnosis and identify the most appropriate form of treatment.
Cervical tinnitus could potentially be connected to poor posture. Being more aware of your posture and following daily exercises to help improve it may help to relieve some of the symptoms experienced.
Massages may help to reduce the compression of cervical nerves and sweep away some accumulated stress and tension. It’s best to leave massages to the professionals, however, as the wrong movements could accentuate your symptoms.
Cervical tinnitus generally resolves once the underlying cause has been identified and appropriately treated. To better deal with this transition phase, sound enrichment devices may help you relax, using nature sounds such as rain and streams to constantly stimulate the hearing and reduce the severity of the tinnitus symptoms.
