Important notice for prospective noise generator users
The Tinnitus Balance noise generator is a broadband sound
Generator which may have been enabled in your hearing aid.
It provides a means of sound enrichment that can be used
aspart of a personalized tinnitus management program
toprovide temporary relief from tinnitus. It should always
beused as prescribed by your audiologist. The underlying
principle of sound enrichment is to provide supplementary
noise stimulation which can help defocus your attention
from your tinnitus and avoid negative reactions.
Soundenrichment, coupled with instructional counseling,
is an established approach to managing tinnitus.
Good health practice requires that a person reporting
tinnitus have a medical evaluation by a licensed ear
physician before using a sound generator. The purpose of
such an evaluation is to ensure medically treatable
conditions that may be causing tinnitus are identied
andtreated prior to using a sound generator.
