Abstract

Mindfulness-based interventions are one of the recent techniques that have proven to be very useful in tinnitus management. Mindfulness therapy refers to experiencing the present, which helps control the attention system, which significantly contributes to getting relief from the adverse reactions due to tinnitus. Several systematic reviews and randomized controlled trials report relief from tinnitus perception even with the heterogeneity of the patients with mindfulness therapy. The different study designs and outcome measures reported similar results suggesting the efficacy of mindfulness-based training. Thus, psychologists and audiologists dealing with individuals suffering from tinnitus can attempt this technique in management. The mindfulness-based training can be combined with formal Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Tinnitus Retraining Therapy (TRT) approaches to enhance tinnitus treatment.
