Not always. For many, tinnitus stays the same—or improves—with the right care.

Managing stress, making healthy lifestyle changes, and working with a tinnitus audiologist can help you feel more in control and reduce its daily impact.

New research reinforces why tinnitus care should be personalized and comprehensive.

A recent study found that individuals with tinnitus experience elevated brain activity, even during sleep. This constant state of “hyperarousal” can disrupt deep sleep, contribute to fatigue, and intensify how tinnitus is experienced throughout the day.

At Northwest Speech and Hearing Center, findings like these are why we take a whole-person approach to tinnitus care. No two cases are alike, which is why our process starts with a thorough tinnitus evaluation to understand how tinnitus affects you personally, day and night.

If you’re struggling with tinnitus or sleep disruption, we’re here to help. Schedule a tinnitus evaluation on our website: https://nwhearing.com/tinnitus/
