Cop Car should be all ears on this one (ha, ha, ha, ha). Scientists may have discovered the secret to getting rid of tinnitus, from which she suffers. It is called Acoustic Coordinated Reset, or ACR. And much to my amusement, it is being made available to patients at a clinic on Harley Street (in England).
ACR matches the tone the sufferer hears and plays that on headsets for several hours a day. Apparently that shows the brain how boring the tone is and reduces the frequency of the brain making that noise itself.
For a more scientific (although not by much, since it isn't a scientific paper), go to the link and read the whole story.
OMG! Now I have to go to England. ; )
