Neuromonics has hit the news in Australia. http://news.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=10195 http://seven.com.au/todaytonight/story/?id=15728 http://www.neuromonics.com I am only passing on the information.

If it cost a lot, private health insurance would cover most of it, wouldn't it?. If it does what it says it does after 6 months there may be a lot of second hand ones around, but they may have to be changed for the individual.

Thanks very much for your interest in ADP. The treatment is a six month-long process with around 8 hours in the tinnitus clinic and the home use of your own highly individualised processor at those times when normally you would be disturbed by your tinnitus. The cost for the whole package is comparable with that of a pair of mid-priced digital hearing aids. There are currently no medicare or health fund rebates for the treatment, but it is subject to the safety net tax rebate of around $800, and pensioners are given this amount as a discount instead. In the first instance we offer a self-contained assessment session in which I measure your hearing, tinnitus and sound tolerance levels, then integrate these test results with a comprehensive case history to determine what has caused and exacerbated your tinnitus. An explanation of this is provided and your most appropriate treatment options outlined. This hour and a half long assessment session costs $170, and is subtracted from the cost of the ADP package if you go ahead with it. If you would like to book an assessment session, please call the clinic on 9266 3436. We also hope to run information evenings soon for both those afflicted with tinnitus and separately for the relevant health professionals. Would you like ot be placed on the list for one of those? best wishes, paul davis Glenn wrote in message ... >Sounds interesting and hopeful. > [quoted text clipped - 33 lines] >> >> >> >>For email: elly at eebee.cjb.net from another newsgroup. There are some decent quality samples of this cd here: http://www.silverlakemusic.com/pmp/marinercov.html http://www.synchronicity.org/Products/Meditation_Music_by_Artist/Tony_Oconnor.aspx Maybe you can put these on repeat and see if they help... >So, my understanding is that one would have to listen to this >music for quite a while before it had any noticable impact? 3-4 hours per day for 6 months is the initial Neuromonics protocol I believe. Tinnitus is a pain in the neck Elly's Tinnitus Resources http://eebee.net/ For email: elly at eebee.cjb.net This is extremely expensive, 90% of people can not afford $5000 for the treatment. Something needs to be done, either reducing the price or government support. I think paying something like $1000-2000 would be more appropriate. Please dont be money hungry and give help to the people that need it so they can have a better life.

Does anyone understand how the music fits in with the masking? The Neuromonics web site says: "...the acoustic stimulus is provided in the context of music which promotes relaxation and positively interacts with the limbic and autonomic areas of the brain, which are regarded as key contributors to the disturbance associated with tinnitus." Would it be possible or desirable to simulate this to some extent by mixing one's own masking sounds with some "relaxing music"? Seems like it would be easily doable with audio software. > Neuromonics has hit the news in Australia. > http://news.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=10195 [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > For email: elly at eebee.cjb.net There is a discussion about neuromonics at www.tinnitusinfo.org >This is very interesting although apparently only available in Australia >and very expensive currently.
