Neat. I've suffered from this since I was single-digits-old; just thought everyone's ears rang. Been a lot of "treatments" over the years, but nothing seems to stick. Will be interested to see how this plays out.

Currently utilizing it in washington state. One of the first. Here's the biggest part: you need to spend one hour everyday doing this. It's basically meditation because you can't have anything interrupt you or do something else. You can split that into two thirty minutes sessions but fuck as a single father Its been impossible to find the time.
You can't even read during treatment? The article doesn't suggest it's meditation-like but I know it surely doesn't cover everything.
You can but you're told not to because you have to focus on the music and the sensation of the electric tingles on your tongue. So no I think it would be hard to read during it. It requires full mindfulness to get the best gain. Additionally, you cannot listen to it before bed, or in bed since it might put you to sleep. It's very soothing. But basically, it's an hour of meditation daily.
Reduced by half would be a game changer for me.
So I believe this is something that's been around for a few years now. At least in Europe. It's considered experimental, no insurance would touch it and it costs €5000.
I'm still very interested to try it.
Edit: For clarification, if this works it will be a godsend for tinnitus sufferers. That's why I'm still very excited to try it.
