Tinnitus treatment at ANDRUKONIS
At ANDRUKONIS, tinnitus treatment begins with a detailed initial consultation and a comprehensive case history. Our physiotherapists record your medical history and carry out targeted diagnostic tests to determine the cause and extent of your tinnitus. Based on these findings, an individual treatment plan is created that is tailored precisely to your needs as a patient. The therapy itself combines manual techniques, specific exercises, and relaxation techniques: Manual therapy aims to release tension in the head, neck, and jaw area and to improve circulation. In addition, exercises are used to strengthen and relax the affected muscles. After each session, there is a follow-up discussion to assess progress and adjust your treatment plan if needed. +43 1 8925 369 About Us

Good to know about Tinnitus Therapy
Physiotherapy is an effective primary treatment approach for tinnitus, especially where the cause lies in the cervical spine or jaw area. Through manual therapy, mobilisation techniques, and targeted exercises, tension is released and symptoms can be relieved. Relaxation and mindfulness exercises also help to avoid stress-related flare-ups. An individually tailored therapy that combines active and passive measures is essential for treatment success and for improving quality of life.
What is tinnitus?
Tinnitus refers to the perception of sound in the ears or head without any external sound source. Those affected often hear ringing, humming, whistling, or buzzing. These sounds can occur continuously or intermittently and vary in volume. Tinnitus can be triggered by external factors such as noise exposure, as well as internal causes such as stress, circulatory problems, or conditions affecting the cervical spine, the jaw joint, or neurological conditions. There are two main forms: Acute tinnitus occurs suddenly and temporarily, while chronic tinnitus lasts longer than three months and can become a lasting burden.
Causes of tinnitus
Tinnitus can be triggered by a variety of causes, including:
- Noise exposure, for example from loud music or machinery, which can damage the inner ear
- Circulatory problems in the inner ear
- Stress
- Conditions affecting the cervical spine
- Conditions affecting the jaw joint
- Neurological conditions
- Inflammation or infections in the ear area (e.g. middle ear infections)
Metabolic conditions, cardiovascular issues, and hormonal imbalances can also play a role. Sometimes the cause remains unclear, which is referred to as “idiopathic tinnitus.” In every case, an accurate diagnosis is important to identify the right treatment options for your specific symptoms.
How common is tinnitus?
Tinnitus is widespread in Austria: it is estimated that around 10–15% of the population experiences ear noises — roughly 900,000 to 1.35 million people. This figure includes both acute and chronic cases. Chronic tinnitus, where the ear noise persists for longer than three months, affects around 1–2% of the population and can significantly impact quality of life. Older people are particularly affected, as prevalence increases with age. Tinnitus is therefore a common and serious hearing condition in Austria as well.
Acute or chronic tinnitus?
Acute tinnitus occurs suddenly and lasts less than three months. It can be triggered by noise exposure, stress, infections, or injury. Treatment aims to address the underlying cause and support the healing process. Typical approaches include medication to improve circulation or cortisone to reduce inflammation. Rest and stress reduction are also important. Chronic tinnitus lasts longer than three months and is often more difficult to treat. Here, the focus of therapy shifts to managing symptoms, as a full cure is rare. Treatment approaches include cognitive behavioural therapy, tinnitus retraining therapy, physiotherapy where the cause is muscular, neurological assessment where indicated, and the use of hearing aids or maskers to cover the ear noise. Relaxation and mindfulness techniques also play an important role in making the symptoms easier to live with and improving quality of life.
Frequently asked questions
What does treatment for tinnitus cost? The cost of tinnitus treatment varies widely depending on the type and scope of treatment. Individual physiotherapy sessions typically range between €135 and €160. Psychotherapeutic approaches or specialised tinnitus retraining therapies can be more expensive, often several hundred euros per session or course. What does health insurance cover for tinnitus? In Austria, statutory health insurers generally cover the cost of medical treatment, including medication and certain therapies such as physiotherapy and hearing aid provision. Psychotherapeutic treatment and specialised tinnitus retraining therapies may be partially or fully covered, depending on the specific insurer and the medical necessity of the therapy. How can I get rid of tinnitus? Treatment for tinnitus depends on the underlying cause. For acute tinnitus, medication to improve circulation or cortisone may help. Rest and stress reduction are also important. For chronic tinnitus, managing the symptoms is the main focus, including cognitive behavioural therapy, tinnitus retraining therapy, a neurological assessment where indicated, hearing aids, and relaxation techniques. There is no universal cure, but a combination of treatments can relieve your symptoms. What helps with persistent tinnitus? A range of approaches can help with persistent tinnitus to relieve your symptoms and improve your quality of life. These include cognitive behavioural therapy, tinnitus retraining therapy, a neurological assessment where indicated, physiotherapy where the cause is muscular, and hearing aids or maskers to cover the ear noise. Relaxation and mindfulness exercises can also be helpful. Individually tailored treatment planning is essential to achieving the best results for you.
