On the day of your tinnitus assessment, your Tinnitus UK centre will be able to offer you devices on a free trial so you can assess the benefit before purchasing anything. These devices are
likely to be hearing aids because they have tinnitus modules either built in or will connect to an app that you can control. Don't worry, as these devices are very small these days and there are
totally invisible ones for purchase if you like the effects.
For decades, hearing aids have been prescribed by audiologists to treat patients who have tinnitus even if they don't have a hearing loss. Hearing aids have long been known to be effective in
relieving tinnitus either through amplification and/or providing background sounds. They may also be used along side other strategies to help you.
