Take Control of Tinnitus
Breakthroughs in NeuroTechnology™ to Quiet the Ringing
By Dr. Keith N. Darrow, PhD, in collaboration with Dr. Sophia Behrmann, Au.D.
If you live with ringing, buzzing, or hissing in your ears, you’ve probably been told to “just learn to live with it.” This book exists to tell you the opposite: tinnitus is real, and it is treatable.
Written by neuroscientist and clinical audiologist Dr. Keith N. Darrow, in collaboration with Dr. Sophia Behrmann, an audiologist who has lived with tinnitus herself since age 16, Take Control of Tinnitus is a step-by-step roadmap built on clinical success, real patient experiences, and the latest advances in neuroscience.
Inside, you’ll discover:
- Why so many people have tinnitus, and why it’s a bigger deal than most doctors admit
- Why you can still suffer from tinnitus even with a “normal” hearing test
- “My Tinnitus Number,” a personal score that leads to real relief
- The 7 steps to effectively treat tinnitus
- How Prescription NeuroTechnology™ has become the cornerstone of modern tinnitus relief
- How sleep, movement, mindfulness, and biometric monitoring reinforce your recovery
- The path from tinnitus relief to total brain health
You’ll also meet real patients, people who once believed their lives had been hijacked by tinnitus, but who now sleep better, think more clearly, and live more fully. These aren’t miracles. They’re the result of structured, science-based care that works.
