Widex Zen, Tinnitus Management Status

The Zen sounds presented on the playlist are intended to provide a relaxing sound background for adults (21 years and older) who desire to listen to such a background in quiet.  The sounds are intended to provide a relaxing sound background for those who suffer from tinnitus.  The Zen sounds may be used as a sound therapy tool in a tinnitus treatment program that is prescribed by a licensed hearing healthcare professional who is trained in tinnitus management.  The Zen sounds presented in the playlist are intended to be used in quiet where hearing everyday sounds is not critical.  WidexZenTinnitusManagement also provides you with access to educational tools, which are intended to increase your awareness about how to live with your tinnitus through education on the basics of tinnitus as well as explained exercises.  WidexZenTinnitusManagement provides you with a sounder player with relaxing Zen sounds.  WidexZenTinnitusManagement is intended to be used with Widex hearing aids (either with streaming capability or via a COM-DEX or UNI-DEX).  It is important the you choose a sound that you find is pleasant, to help you shift your focus away from your tinnitus.  The aggravating ringing in your ears, called tinnitus, can be managed.  We recommend you listen to the selected sound for at least 2-4 hours a day, at a soft level.  It’s a ringing, buzzing or humming noise playing in your ears, and it’s exasperating.  Nobody else can hear it – but you hear it all the time.  Listen to the sound while you are in quiet surroundings doing other things: reading, relaxing, working, etc.   If you use hearing aids, the sounds in WidexZenTinnitusManagement may be used alone (without amplification) in quiet when you are not required to hear surrounding sounds, or they can be used so both the surrounding sounds and WidexZenTinnitusManagement sounds are heard together.
