Why Choose Osteopathy & Physiotherapy for Tinnitus?
Unfortunately, there's no miracle cure for tinnitus. However, a combination of physiotherapy and osteopathy can help alleviate the often stress-related physical tensions. It's important to understand that this is a long-term process aimed at stress regulation and relaxation—from jaw issues and neck stiffness to fascial tensions, which often arise from chronic stress.

Treatment for tinnitus offers promising prospects for relief, although it does not guarantee a complete cure. Success of the treatment varies individually and requires time, patience, and active participation.
What is Tinnitus?
Tinnitus refers to sounds you hear that aren't triggered by external noise sources. This can occur in one ear or both ears. The noises can be extremely uncomfortable for those affected and, when they persist, can lead to significant mental strain.
For tinnitus caused mechanically, often intensified by stress, osteopathy and physiotherapy can be supportive. Important: There is no quick medical fix. The focus is on reducing your stress levels and relieving chronic tension in the jaw, neck, and head areas.

Understanding Tinnitus
Mechanical Tinnitus can be influenced by physical factors related to tension or stress in the body. Often, tension in the shoulder, neck, or jaw area plays a role. In particular, the close connection between the jaw joint and the ear is frequently discussed as a possible influencing factor.
The interaction of muscles, fascia, and joints in the head and neck area is complex—and significantly influenced by stress. Chronic stress leads to tension that can affect your auditory system. While manual therapy isn't a cure-all, it can help break stress-related tension patterns and promote relaxation.

Our Therapeutic Approaches
Stress Management
Targeted relaxation techniques such as progressive muscle relaxation help you reduce stress and decrease tension.
Manual Therapy
Mobilization of the cervical spine to improve mobility
Mobilization of the thorax and thoracic spine
Releasing trigger points in tense muscles
Regulating fascial tension between the head, skull, and chest
Craniosacral Therapy
For tension issues around the skull, brain, and spinal membranes, this gentle to moderate osteopathic technique can help release fascial tension, thereby reducing skull tension and promoting bone elasticity. Additionally, craniosacral therapy influences the autonomic nervous system.
Posture Training
Incorrect postures lead to muscular imbalances and tension. We help you develop a healthy body posture and correct misalignments.
Jaw Treatment
Special techniques to relax jaw muscles and improve jaw joint function. This is often the key in treating mechanical tinnitus.
