Is the Oxegen music festival, the remainder of the World Cup or the All Ireland at the top of your social life to-do list over the coming weeks? If so, it may be time to turn to the web for some professional help if loud music, vuvuzelas, or the roar of the crowd in Croke Park give you that annoying ringing in your ears.
An online therapy which alleviates temporary tinnitus or ‘ringing in the ears’ which is caused by exposure to loud environments, is available from an Irish company, Restored Hearing. People who listen to their MP3 players through headphones can also benefit from the web-based therapy.
The tailored therapy sessions which have a 99% success rate proven by scientific trials are just one minute long. The therapy is based on sound and wave theory, using a low hum to physically stimulate the cochlear hairs back into their original upright position.
In addition to the alleviation of ringing in your ears, the therapy was also found to restore hearing sensitivity back to the level it was before the damage was incurred (e.g. to pre-concert levels).
All that sufferers require are a broadband connection, a pair of outer ear headphones and a mobile phone for payment by SMS if they don’t have access to a credit card.
Restored Hearing has made its therapy very easy for people to access by making it available online with payment possible by SMS (for single purchases), PayPal/credit card (for batches of 10) or on a subscription basis.
According to Rhona Togher, co-founder, Restored Hearing, “The growing phenomenon of the use of the vuvuzela horn at the World Cup and other sporting events around the globe, including GAA matches here in Ireland, will see sports fan using our temporary tinnitus therapy in the same way concert goers currently benefit. This unexpected new customer base can conveniently access our therapy online so that they can continue to enjoy their sporting events without the annoyance of ringing in the ears.â€
Restored Hearing is currently participating on NovaUCD’s Campus Company Development Programme which assists entrepreneurs in bringing their innovative ideas to fully developed and sound commercial businesses.
