#  Tinnitus Healing From Home

**Presentation Date:** 27 October 2021

**Duration:** 1:29:08

**Return to:** [AuDacity Archive](https://www.audiologist.org/audacity-archive)

Tinnitus is experienced by 50 million Americans and can be problematic or debilitating for many. Mindfulness Based Tinnitus Stress Reduction (MBTSR), has shown promise as an effective tool in managing tinnitus. A recent study assessed the effectiveness of an 8-week online MBTSR program during a pandemic using the Tinnitus Functional Index and Perceived Stress Scale. Statistically significant differences (i.e., self-reported improvement) were found between all of the measures and sub-measures between the pre, mid, and post time points. Results were maintained at 6 months follow-up. This seminar addresses the need to gain easy and inexpensive access to evidence-based effective tinnitus treatment from the privacy of one’s home, as it greatly reduces the pressures on audiologists and existing health care systems, which was found particularly helpful during the COVID-19 pandemic period.
