Our office is now offering solutions for Tinnitus sufferers (ringing in the ears.)

Tinnitus is a condition in which a person perceives sound that is not actually present in the environment. It is often described as "ringing in the ears" but can include virtually any type of sound including whooshing, hissing, or whistling.  There are many possible causes for tinnitus but most cases are related to damage to the auditory system.
