There are some causes of tinnitus that have been identified yet for some sufferers the condition remains unexplained.

Identifiable causes include ear wax build- up resulting inpressure on the eardrum. High blood pressure is also a theory. Other causes include a pierced eardrum, middle ear disease and loud volumes that cause permanent damage. Stress, anxiety and age are also influences for tinnitus

The long term consequence of continued anxiety can be serious. Using hypnotherapy along with cognitive behavioural approaches, here at Leeds Hypnotherapy Clinic we are able to teach patients how to manage their tinnitus and therefore have a much more enjoyable life.
