Tinnitus isn’t just a “noise”—it’s a signal as well as a frequent symptom of auditory damage. 🧠⚡️
90% of those with hearing loss report some degree of tinnitus.

Often, that ringing is your brain trying to compensate for hearing loss it can’t detect. Akin to a ‘phantom limb’ phenomenon, your brain attempts to ‘fill in’ the missing auditory information, resulting in an internally perceived sound. This can be frustrating and affect one’s work, relationships and sleep. Higher rates of depression are also found in those with tinnitus.

We can help you “turn down the volume” through:

✅ Specialized Tinnitus evaluations
✅ Tinnitus counseling, written information explaining the causes and effects of tinnitus and interdisciplinary referrals
✅ Discreet tinnitus treatment devices, programmed based on your tinnitus evaluation data and your individual lifestyle needs

You deserve a life where you can truly focus on conversations, not the background buzz.

Reach out to see how we can help!

Our clinicians are all doctorate and master’s-level Ontario-certified
Audiologists - the highest level of training in the field of hearing loss and tinnitus treatment.

Link between autoimmune disease and hearing loss found.

: Certain autoimmune conditions are linked to a greater risk of hearing loss and tinnitus.

In addition, some medications used to treat autoimmune diseases can impact hearing as a side effect, a risk known as ototoxicity.

Because both the condition and its treatment may affect hearing, experts recommend regular hearing screenings for people living with autoimmune conditions.

February is Tinnitus awareness month, so this infographic is both timely as well as important to know!

A tinnitus spike is not always an increase in volume. It can involve changes in pitch, tone, or sound quality, or a period when tinnitus feels more intrusive or distressing, even if the sound itself has not changed.

Spikes can last minutes, hours, or longer, and while they’re tough, they don’t mean you’ve lost progress. They’re a normal part of habituation.

Learn more about why tinnitus spikes occur and how understanding them can support long-term coping.

The link between certain medications and tinnitus is undeniable as the list grows - do you see any of your medications on this list?

Tinnitus is a chronic symptom characterized by a sound ‘heard’ in one or both ears, when there is no actual external sound present.

Often described as a ringing, buzzing, roaring, clicking or hissing - tinnitus can be continuous or intermittent, and vary in pitch and loudness. It can even be pulsatile (in tune with your heartbeat).

It is most often linked to auditory damage, earwax, certain illness or disease, head and neck injuries in addition to certain medications.

Varying from slight to severe in nature, its impact can range from slightly annoying to severely debilitating, with deleterious effects on concentration, work and sleep - causing anxiety, stress and elevating your risk of depression.

What are your first steps?
* See your Audiologist for a tinnitus evaluation
* Ask your doctor or Ear, Nose and Throat specialist

Although stopping or changing medication can sometimes help- it is simply not always an option. You should always check with your Doctor about any prescription questions or changes to see what is medically best for you.

Treating underlying causes of tinnitus (such as hearing loss) can help you manage your tinnitus - contact Sound Hearing Care today to schedule your tinnitus evaluation!
