EIT ICT Labs proudly announces that the Tinnitracks product will be presented in the Netherlands, on 21 April, High Tech Campus 31, Eindhoven. The company behind the Tinnitracks product is the German startup Sonormed which is member of the EIT ICT Labs Health and Wellbeing Business Community and is coached by the EIT ICT Labs Business Accelerator. The relation with EIT ICT Labs started in 2014 with Tinnitracks winning the Idea Challenge 2014 in the category Health and Wellbeing.
 
Tinnitracks declares the war on the widespread disease of tinnitus that causes a constant ear buzzing. It provides access to an integrated neuro acoustic therapy based on the Tailor-Made-Notched-Music-Training (TMNMT), a scientifically proven therapy developed at the University of Munster, Germany, that addresses the causes of tinnitus in the auditory cortex as opposed to the symptoms. The industry is very interested in this new approach. 

Tinnitracks is a technological solution that treats tinnitus by using your own music. It allows you to target the cause of tinnitus in the brain instead of simply managing symptoms. Or that you have to accept the constant buzz in your ears.
Tinnitracks is possible by means of the brain's lifelong ability to adapt and learn throughout our entire lives, also known as neuroplasticity. Scientific knowledge of neuroplasticity in the brain has led to new therapeutic approaches in treating chronic tinnitus. And that is the point where Tinnitracks steps in. It allows you to filter your music in order to use it for a new tinnitus therapy. With music! Giving you the therapy that can easily be integrated in your daily life.

How it works:

  • Upload any of your music 
  •  
  •  Tinnitracks determines the therapeutic potential of each track.
  •  
  •  After processing just transfer the file to your MP3-player
  •  
  •  You are ready to begin the treatment
