Managing Tinnitus, Ringing in the Ears and Hearing Loss Holistically; with Acupuncture and Hypnotherapy!

Tinnitus, ringing in the ears, and hearing loss are all issues that can significantly impact your quality of life, let alone your ability to hear. Not only can these symptoms be detrimental to your ability to communicate and your day-to-day life, but they are also annoying and bothersome and can create other symptoms like insomnia or difficulty concentrating.
