As a patient you are unique. Discover how our individual treatment can help you to relieve your tinnitus in the long term.
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 in order to determine the cause and extent of your tinnitus.
Based on these findings, an individual treatment plan is drawn up for you that is precisely tailored to your needs as a patient.
The therapy itself comprises a combination of manual techniques, specific exercises and relaxation techniques:
The manual therapies aim to release tension in the head, neck and jaw area and to improve circulation.
In addition, exercises are carried out to strengthen and relax the affected muscles.
After each session there is a follow-up discussion in order to assess progress and adjust your therapy plan if necessary.
„Tinnitus is not just a sound in the ear; it can affect your entire well-being. An individually tailored therapy is therefore crucial in order to improve the quality of life of those affected.„
At the start of the therapy there is a detailed initial consultation in which the physiotherapist records your medical history and your specific complaints.
The physiotherapist carries out various tests with you in order to determine the exact cause and extent of your tinnitus. This can include manual examinations and special hearing tests.
Based on the diagnostic results we draw up an individual therapy plan for you that is matched to your needs and goals.
Where needed, and depending on the findings, your physiotherapist applies targeted manual techniques to release tension in the head, neck and jaw area and to improve your circulation.
In certain cases, targeted exercises to strengthen and relax the affected muscles are used in order to achieve lasting improvements.
At the end of the therapy your physiotherapist discusses the entire course of treatment with you. Where appropriate, you arrange further measures or follow-up appointments in order to secure your results in the long term.

Physiotherapy is an effective primary form of therapy for tinnitus, particularly where problems of the cervical spine or the jaw area are involved.
Manual therapy, mobilisation techniques and targeted exercises release tension and can relieve your symptoms.
In addition, relaxation and mindfulness exercises help you to avoid stress-related aggravation.
An individually tailored therapy that combines active and passive measures is essential for the success of the treatment and for improving your quality of life.
Tinnitus refers to the perception of sounds in the ears or head without an external sound source.
As someone affected, you often hear a ringing, buzzing, whistling or humming. These sounds can be continuous or intermittent and vary in volume.
Tinnitus can be triggered by external factors such as noise exposure as well as by internal causes such as stress, circulatory disorders or conditions of the cervical spine and the temporomandibular joint, as well as neurological conditions.
There are two main forms:
Acute tinnitus occurs suddenly and temporarily, while chronic tinnitus lasts longer than three months and can represent a permanent burden for you.
Tinnitus can be triggered by a variety of causes:
In addition, metabolic disorders, cardiovascular problems and hormonal imbalances can play a role.
Sometimes the cause remains unclear, which is referred to as “idiopathic tinnitus”.
In any case, an accurate diagnosis of your symptoms is important in order to find suitable treatment options for you.
Tinnitus is widespread in Austria: estimates suggest that around 10 to 15 percent of the population suffer from ringing in the ears, which corresponds to roughly 900,000 to 1.35 million people. These figures include both acute and chronic cases.
Chronic tinnitus, in which the sounds persist for longer than three months, affects around 1 to 2 percent of the population and significantly impairs quality of life.
Older people are particularly affected, as the frequency increases with age.
Tinnitus is therefore a common and serious hearing disorder in Austria as well.
Acute tinnitus occurs suddenly and lasts less than three months. It can be triggered by noise exposure, stress, infections or injuries.
The treatment aims to address the underlying cause and to support your healing process.
Typical treatment approaches include medication to promote 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 is on managing your symptoms, as a complete cure is rare.
Treatment approaches include cognitive behavioural therapy, tinnitus retraining therapy, physiotherapy where the causes are muscular, a neurological assessment where this is suspected, and the use of hearing aids or maskers that cover the sound in your ear.
Relaxation exercises and mindfulness techniques also play an important role in making it easier for you to cope with the symptoms and in improving your quality of life.
The cost of tinnitus therapy varies considerably depending on the type and scope of the treatment. Individual physiotherapy sessions can cost between 160 € and 135 €. Psychotherapeutic approaches or specialised tinnitus retraining therapies can be higher, often in the range of several hundred euros per session or course.
In Austria, statutory health insurers generally cover the costs of medical treatments, including medication and certain therapies such as physiotherapy and hearing aid provision. Psychotherapeutic treatments and specialised tinnitus retraining therapies can be covered in part or in full, depending on the specific insurer and the necessity of the therapy.
The treatment of tinnitus depends on the cause. For acute tinnitus, medication to promote circulation or cortisone can help. Rest and stress reduction are also important. For chronic tinnitus the focus is on managing the symptoms, including cognitive behavioural therapy, tinnitus retraining therapy, a neurological assessment where this is suspected, hearing aids and relaxation techniques. There is no universal cure, but a combination of treatments can relieve your symptoms.
With persistent tinnitus, various approaches can help you to relieve your symptoms and improve your quality of life. These include cognitive behavioural therapy, tinnitus retraining therapy, a neurological assessment where this is suspected, physiotherapy where the causes are muscular, and hearing aids or maskers that cover the sound.
Relaxation exercises and mindfulness techniques can also be helpful. Individual therapy planning is crucial in order to achieve the best results for you.
