This paper reports the results of a study to determine whether pulsed
electromagnetic stimulation, applied over the mastoid bone, caused an
improvement in the level of tinnitus in long-standing tinnitus sufferers.
Fifty-eight patients from the Liverpool Tinnitus Association volunteered to
take part in a double-blind placebo controlled trial. Active and placebo
devices were randomly allocated to these patients on their first visit. At
the end of one week of treatment, each patient noted whether their tinnitus
had completely disappeared, was improved, unchanged or made worse by the
treatment Forty-five per cent of the patients who completed the trial were
improved by the active device, but only 9% by placebo (P = 0.0013,
Mann-Whitney test). We suggest that electromagnetic stimulation may be an
effective treatment in some tinnitus sufferers.

Not a lot of relevance here perhaps, but some years ago, long before my
tinnitus onset, I did experiment with a 'brain coil' that fed high-level low
frequency (7-14Hz) spikey electromagnetic pulses into my head. It seemed to
make me sleepy. I concluded it was probably dangerous.
