Treatment for Tinnitus
Stress management for tinnitus involves modulating the central nervous system's response to auditory and emotional stimuli through targeted psychological interventions and potential pharmacological approaches. These strategies aim to reduce the hyperactivity of the limbic and autonomic nervous systems, which can amplify tinnitus perception and distress, primarily by downregulating cortisol and norepinephrine levels and enhancing parasympathetic tone. The primary effects include decreased tinnitus-related anxiety, improved neuroplastic adaptation, and reduced subjective tinnitus severity through neurochemical and psychological regulation.
