habituation therapy
Treatment for Tinnitus
Habituation therapy for tinnitus involves systematic acoustic desensitization, utilizing low-level sound stimulation to gradually reduce the brain's neurological response to tinnitus perception. The therapy aims to recalibrate neural gain in the auditory cortex, promoting neuroplastic changes that diminish the emotional and perceptual salience of tinnitus sounds by encouraging the brain to reclassify the sound as non-threatening background noise.
