An interdisciplinary approach to tinnitus

Historically, tinnitus research has been undertaken by a small number of individuals working independently of each other. Several gathered a small team around them, but worked from within their own discipline, using insights from other disciplines on an ad hoc basis. In the context of modern clinical science, this approach no longer does justice to the depth of knowledge within the various disciplines that have a perspective upon tinnitus.

Craniosacral therapy and tinnitus

When you work with people with tinnitus certain patterns become clear. The core issue seems to be learning how to let go at a deep level. Once a person becomes able to do this, symptoms improve. With the right kind of support, the process of letting go takes place all by itself. I have witnessed great improvements, not only with tinnitus, but also in people's ability to be positive, relaxed and healthy.
