What is the tinnitus masking program, and how should I use it?

The Tinnitus Masking program is designed to help relieve tinnitus symptoms.

How to use it

  • Switch to P4: Tinnitus Masking.
  • Use it for short sessions.
  • The manual recommends using it for no more than 30 minutes at a time and no more than 3 times a day.

What to expect

Tinnitus masking plays a gentle background sound to make tinnitus less noticeable. It doesn't cure tinnitus, and results vary from person to person:

  • Some people can't hear their tinnitus at all while the masking sound plays. It returns when masking stops.
  • Many people find their tinnitus is still there but less bothersome, which makes it easier to relax or focus. This is the most common result.
  • Some people notice little or no difference. If masking makes your tinnitus seem more noticeable, stop using the program.

The masking sounds are preset and aren't tuned to your specific tinnitus. For a personalized approach, a hearing professional or audiologist can help.

Important

If your tinnitus is bothersome, new, or worsening, speak with your physician or hearing professional for further guidance.
