The tinnitus and Hyperacusis site
http://www.tinnitus.org
This site is all about tinnitus (and hyperacusis) retraining therapy. TRT for short. In the
1980s Pawel Jastreboff, a neuroscientist, now working in Atlanta, worked out the correct
mechanism of tinnitus. Until then, all the accounts of tinnitus in textbooks said it was due
to ear damage which couldn't be fixed.
