Treatment Results (Statistics)

 

The results of treatments that were published in the literature show significant improvement in 76% of the patients (see articles (1) and (2)). Today the outcome is even better: about 90% of patients treated in the IDF (IDF = Israel Defense Forces) out-patient clinic during the years 1989 - 1994, reported a notable improvement in their quality of life, the tinnitus, and other symptoms.

Many patients reported a complete disappearance of the tinnitus.

Since all those seeking help are chronic tinnitus patients, many came to us with extensive experience with different treatments. For example: many patients tried the acupuncture procedure, homeopathic medications, reflexology, masking instruments or sedative medications. With that background, our patients could compare the degree of improvement following the previous treatments, with the current method. Most of them said that they are very satisfied with the degree of improvement in their condition.

The rate of improvement in the condition of our IDF patients and of those treated in out-patient clinics of the above hospitals, have led to an overflow in the outpatient clinics in the two hospitals with chronic tinnitus and vertigo/dizziness sufferers.
