New App helps Tinnitus sufferers

Researchers from Auckland and Sydney Universities have come up with a new therapy for Tinnitus.  “Ringing in the ears” or constant sound is something 15% of Australians suffer from.

In concert with a cognitive psychologist, an app has been developed which can help train the brain to pay less attention to the background sound.
