INSTRUCTIONS: What's great about ear ringing is that it is SOOOO simple
to fix! I am a massage therapist and learned about this just a few
years ago. The REASON that you get ear ringing is because your neck
muscles are too tight - in particular the sternocleidomastoid (the muscle
that runs from right behind your ear to your clavicle at the base of your
neck). By applying gentle pressure to the muscle or stretching, GENTLY,
this muscle, you will get immediate relief. I get ear ringing about
once a month and am now able to treat it within a minute, poof, all
gone!! Enjoy!

I wanted to thank Marian Chapman for her suggestion regarding "ear ringing." It worked, though I never heard the pop she mentioned in her description. Having ringing ears for 3-4 weeks was awful and this worked.

Thanks again.

Instructions: If you have a CD player, you can play sound masking white noise CDs. Unlike white noise machines or generators, which are more expensive, the beauty of white noise CDs is that you can adjust the tone and volume to mask your particular tinnitus or ear ringing symptoms. Just go on the search engines and type in "white noise cd" and you'll find several sources that can help.

While standing, roll the head in a complete circle three times clockwise and three time counter clockwise. Bend the neck left and right three times, and forward and back three times. Do this every day faithfully. In a few days there will be a popping sound in the neck. The ringing will subside, and finally never return again.
