Thanks! What has helped me the most so far is improving my diet to include a wide range of nutrients that were missing, plus having chiropractic care and massage. Sometimes after 30 minutes of thai massage I don't notice tinnitus at all. In my case I have physical damage to my jaw too which may be involved, so it has been tough to identify exactly what needs to be repaired - however, I just aim to fix everything anyway!
Resistance to the sound is also something that can make it harder to deal with. Advice I received from a yogi at one time was to ask 'what are you running away from?' - often it is pain.
My brother was sitting on a chair, someone banged and turned his head slightly, he heard a slight "click" in his neck and that was it. The noise has been there 16 years now. He just try not to think about it. The best thing you can do is to get on with your life and learn how to ignore your tinnitus and meditate daily
Numerous people have healed tinnitus permanently - denial doesn't fix anything. The fact that it began for your brother with a neck movement, is a clear sign that chiropractic adjustment may resolve it for him.
