Private Tinnitus Treatment
That Actually Works

If you are reading this, there is a sound you cannot escape. You may have tried things that made no difference. You may have been told nothing can be done. That was not a diagnosis of your potential. It was the ceiling of the toolkit they had available. Tinnitus does get better. We have seen it, time and again, even in the cases that looked impossible on paper.

Awajimijana explains why below. Then we will show you exactly what this involves.

A Message From Awajimijana

Why So Many Tinnitus Treatments Leave People More Hopeless Than Before They Started

After three years facilitating Central London's only tinnitus support group and working with patients who had already tried everything, a pattern became impossible to ignore. Every failed treatment shared the same flaw. Awajimijana explains it here.

Once you see it, the rest of this page makes a different kind of sense.

If You Have Been Told to Just Live With It, That Was Not the Full Truth.

So many people are silently carrying tinnitus. If you have already spoken to professionals who meant well but could not offer more than a leaflet and a waiting list, that was not a verdict on your prognosis. It was a reflection of the framework they were trained in.

Three things we need you to know:

You are not alone. Millions of people live with tinnitus, and most of them were never offered the full picture.
Support is available. With the right framework across all three systems, the distress eases in a way single-domain treatments simply cannot produce.
It does get better. Time and again, clinical evidence and our own clinic experience show the same thing: with the right approach, tinnitus can lose its grip.

You may be experiencing one or more of these right now:

Constant ringing, buzzing, hissing or pulsating with no external source
Louder at night, making sleep feel impossible
Anxiety and hypervigilance that builds around the sound
Difficulty concentrating, especially in quiet environments
Withdrawing from social situations or conversations
Constantly monitoring and checking the noise
Told your hearing test was normal, so nobody knows what to do next
Why Almost All Tinnitus Treatments Only Treat One Part of a Three-Part Problem
NeuroQuiet works here AUDITORY SYSTEM How the brain processes sound EMOTIONAL SYSTEM Limbic threat response ATTENTIONAL SYSTEM Cognitive focus capture Signal distress Focus on sound Emotional vigilance
A psychologist treats the emotional circle. An audiologist treats the auditory circle. Most doctors treat none of them in a structured way. NeuroQuiet works across all three simultaneously , which is why it reaches what one-dimensional approaches cannot.

The Real Reason Previous Treatments Stalled

Every Clinician Can Only Use the Tools They Were Trained In

A psychologist may swear by CBT alone. An audiologist may swear by sound enrichment and TRT alone. Most doctors have nothing to prescribe for tinnitus, so they give their best but you need more, and the search continues.

This is not incompetence. It is specialisation. Each clinician treats the one domain they understand and hopes it is enough. It usually is not, which is why so many people say "I tried everything and nothing worked." They tried everything available in one clinic, not everything possible across all three systems.

"You were never the problem. The toolkit was."

A clinician who has only ever managed tinnitus with a leaflet and a referral has never watched habituation happen in their own clinic. So they assume it does not. That assumption gets passed on to patients as if it were clinical fact. It is not. It is a limitation of exposure.

Awajimijana has spent over three years facilitating Central London's only dedicated tinnitus support group, watching habituation happen time and again, in patients who had already been told it was impossible for them specifically.

See How the Assessment Works
1
Auditory Assessment
Full peripheral hearing evaluation plus otoacoustic emissions to map signal processing. Medical clearance to rule out treatable causes before retraining begins.
2
Emotional Profiling
Validated questionnaires including the Tinnitus Functional Index assess how the limbic and autonomic nervous system is responding to the tinnitus signal, and how much distress it is generating.
3
Attentional Mapping
Understanding how much of your cognitive bandwidth tinnitus is consuming, and identifying the attentional patterns that keep the signal at the front of your awareness.
4
Personalised Roadmap
A written treatment plan tailored to your 3D profile. Not a leaflet. Not generic advice. A specific pathway built around your auditory, emotional and attentional presentation.

You Are in the Right Place If Any of These Are True

The NeuroQuiet Tinnitus Programme™ is designed for anyone whose tinnitus is affecting their quality of life, regardless of how long you have had it or how many things you have already tried.

You have ringing, buzzing, hissing or pulsating in one or both ears
Your tinnitus is worse at night or in quiet environments
You find yourself constantly monitoring or checking the noise
You have been told there is nothing that can be done
Your hearing test came back normal but the tinnitus persists
You have tried one type of treatment (CBT, hearing aids, or masking) without full resolution
You are exhausted, anxious or depressed because of the tinnitus
You want a clear explanation and a structured plan, not more vague advice

You do not need to be endlessly resilient for this to work.

One of the most common things patients say in the first session is: "I love that this worked for other people, but you don't understand how bad mine is. I'm not like your success stories."

Awajimijana has seen habituation in patients after cancer treatment, complex medical trauma, and decades of failed interventions. Severity does not disqualify you. It just means you need a multi-domain approach.

You do not need extra hours in the day or extra reserves of courage. You need a better return on the time and energy tinnitus is already stealing from you.

When the Cases Look Hopeless

The patients who benefit most from a 3D approach are often the ones who were told nothing could be done.

"

A woman came to the clinic following cancer treatment and a double mastectomy. She had already been through extraordinary medical difficulty. Tinnitus arrived afterwards and felt, in her own words, like the final cruel joke. By the time she booked her appointment she was convinced she had nothing left to give another programme.

She did not need to start with fighting. She started with making it easy to win. Micro-steps instead of heroics. Two-minute attention drills she could do in bed. Small sound-environment adjustments that required no extra energy. Emotional tools designed for a nervous system that had already been through war.

The turning point was not the day her tinnitus changed. It was the day her belief about herself changed, from "I cannot do this" to "even at my lowest, I can still take small steps that move my brain in the right direction." Once that shift happened, progress followed.

Habituated to tinnitus after a structured 3D programme. No longer describes tinnitus as the dominant feature of her daily experience.

Who You Will See

Every NeuroQuiet appointment is conducted by a named, qualified specialist. Not a locum. Not a trainee.

Mr Awajimijana Otana
MSc Audiology, RHAD, RCCP Registered
Awajimijana did not learn the NeuroQuiet approach from a textbook. He learned it by watching tinnitus change in real patients, under the supervision of one of the UK's most experienced tinnitus clinicians, Mr Tony Kay, who served as President of Tinnitus UK. Mr Kay showed him practically what happens when all three systems are addressed together: patients who had been written off by conventional care began to habituate. One of those cases involved bilateral tinnitus of ten years. Another, a patient who had tried every available treatment without success. Both habituated. That experience became the foundation of everything Awajimijana now does at our Wigmore Street clinic. He has since spent over three years facilitating Central London's only dedicated tinnitus support group, staying close to the lived reality of tinnitus in a way that appointments alone cannot provide.

What People Say After Their NeuroQuiet Tinnitus Programme™

★★★★★

Thanks for your time last week. Straight away I lost any anxiety about the tinnitus. While it is now still occasionally quite loud, I have found I notice it less often and it does not bother me when I do notice it.

Matt K.
Google Review
★★★★★

I was told there is nothing I can do about my tinnitus. Awajimijana did not just help me feel better, he restored my confidence in health professionals.

Sarah H.
Google Review
★★★★★

After years of sleepless nights, the programme helped me stop chasing silence and start living again. The counselling changed how I relate to the sound. I notice it less, and it bothers me much less.

Lenire Bimodal Neuromodulation

Lenire is a CE-marked medical device developed for the treatment of tinnitus. It uses bimodal neuromodulation: synchronised sound delivered to the ears and mild electrical stimulation delivered to the tongue simultaneously.

The clinical rationale is that pairing two sensory inputs prompts the brain to reorganise its auditory circuitry, reducing the neural activity that generates the tinnitus signal. A randomised controlled trial published in Science Translational Medicine demonstrated significant reductions in tinnitus severity as measured by the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI) and Tinnitus Functional Index (TFI).

Lenire is one of the treatment pathways that may be recommended following a NeuroQuiet Tinnitus Assessment™, depending on your clinical profile. Not everyone is a candidate, which is exactly why the assessment comes first.

Where Your NeuroQuiet Tinnitus Assessment™ Can Lead

Your assessment produces a personalised roadmap. These are the treatment pathways it may recommend, depending on your clinical profile.

🧠
NeuroQuiet Tinnitus Programme™
The structured multi-domain programme that addresses auditory, emotional and attentional systems together. Built on neuroplasticity research and clinical experience from 3 years of tinnitus support group facilitation.
💬
CBT-Informed Tinnitus Therapy
Cognitive and behavioural approaches specifically adapted for tinnitus, addressing the emotional reactions and avoidance patterns that keep the alarm signal active. The most evidence-supported psychological intervention for tinnitus per NICE NG155.
🔊
Tinnitus Retraining Therapy (TRT)
Directive counselling combined with sound therapy to retrain the brain's response to the tinnitus signal through habituation. Reduces the contrast between tinnitus-related neural activity and background activity.
🎧
Hearing Aids for Tinnitus
Where hearing loss is also present, appropriately fitted hearing aids reduce the contrast that makes tinnitus more prominent. Not a standalone cure, but a meaningful component of a multi-domain plan.
Lenire Neuromodulation
For suitable candidates identified at assessment, Lenire bimodal neuromodulation offers a home-use device approach to reducing tinnitus severity. CE-marked and backed by peer-reviewed RCT evidence.
🏥
ENT Specialist Referral
Where medical investigation is needed beyond audiological scope, Verified Hearing works with a dedicated ENT tinnitus specialist in London for further aetiology investigations including MRI where indicated.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the Tinnitus Consultation and the NeuroQuiet Tinnitus Assessment™?
The Tinnitus Consultation (60 minutes, £299) is for patients who already have recent medical clearance including a comprehensive hearing test, otoacoustic emissions and tympanometry completed within the past 6 months. The NeuroQuiet Tinnitus Assessment™ (90 minutes, £499) includes all of those audiological tests alongside the full tinnitus consultation in a single appointment, bundling £737 of components at £499. The assessment cost is deducted from any subsequent treatment plan.
Do I need a GP referral?
No. You can book directly without a GP referral. We see patients the same week, often within a few days of booking.
My hearing test was normal. Can I still have tinnitus?
Yes. Between 20 and 30 percent of people who report tinnitus have entirely normal peripheral hearing. A normal audiogram does not rule out tinnitus and does not mean your experience is imaginary or untreatable. Tinnitus often reflects how the brain processes and reacts to sound at a central level, not just what the ear hears peripherally.
Can tinnitus actually get better?
Yes. The goal of treatment is habituation: the neurological process by which the brain learns to classify the tinnitus signal as non-threatening and moves it to the background of awareness. You habituate to your nose being in front of your face even though you can see it, because it carries no threat. The same process can apply to tinnitus. Clinical evidence and Awajimijana's own experience, including cases following cancer treatment and complex trauma, show that with the right multi-domain approach habituation is achievable regardless of severity or duration.
I have tried everything and nothing has worked. Why would this be different?
The most common pattern we see is patients who have tried one dimension of treatment, perhaps CBT alone, or sound therapy alone, or hearing aids alone, and found it insufficient. This is expected, because tinnitus is a 3D problem. The NeuroQuiet approach is specifically designed to address all three systems simultaneously. If you have genuinely tried multi-domain treatment with no change, your assessment will identify exactly why and what else is available.
What is Lenire and is it available here?
Lenire is a CE-marked bimodal neuromodulation device that delivers synchronised sound and tongue stimulation to reduce tinnitus severity. A large randomised controlled trial showed 85 percent of patients experienced improvement in their THI score. Lenire is available at Verified Hearing following a NeuroQuiet Tinnitus Assessment™ that confirms your suitability. Not every tinnitus profile is a suitable candidate, which is why the assessment comes first.
I am exhausted and do not have the energy for another programme. Is this still suitable?
Yes. The NeuroQuiet approach is specifically designed to work within whatever energy reserves you have. Many patients come in depleted. The programme does not add hours to your day; it reallocates the time and attention tinnitus is already consuming and makes that time productive rather than fearful. Micro-steps, not heroics.
Where are the clinics and when are you open?
We have two central London locations. Our main clinic is at 126 Wigmore Street, London W1U 3RY. We also see patients at 1 Harley Street, London W1G 9QD. Evening appointments are available so you can attend after work. Call 020 3011 1280 or book directly below.

Three Things Most Patients Are Thinking at This Point

If you have read this far, one of these is probably running in the background. Let us address them directly.

01
"I've been told nothing can be done."

What was true: the clinicians who told you that did not have a 3D tinnitus framework. They used the tools they were trained with. In most NHS and standard private settings, that means a hearing test, a leaflet, and a referral that leads nowhere useful.

What the evidence actually says: NICE formally recommends CBT as the only evidence-supported psychological intervention for tinnitus. TRT has a clinical evidence base. Lenire achieved 85 percent improvement in a published RCT of 326 patients. The NeuroQuiet approach combines multiple evidence-based pathways, delivered simultaneously across all three systems.

"Nothing can be done" meant "I don't know what else to offer you." It was never a diagnosis of your potential.

02
"My case is too severe, or too complicated."

The cases that benefited most from the NeuroQuiet approach at this clinic include a woman following cancer treatment and a double mastectomy, a patient whose tinnitus followed a CSF leak during surgery, and patients with over a decade of failed treatment history. All habituated.

Severity does not disqualify you. It changes the pathway, not the destination. A more severe presentation simply means you need a more thorough multi-domain approach, which is exactly what the assessment is designed to map.

In our experience, the patients who progress fastest are often the ones who were most convinced they could not.

03
"I don't want to spend money on something that won't work."

This is the fairest objection of the three, and it deserves a direct answer. The NeuroQuiet Tinnitus Assessment™ is not a treatment. It is a diagnostic. It maps your tinnitus across all three systems and produces a written plan specific to your profile.

At the end of it, you will have a clear picture of what is maintaining your tinnitus, a scored clinical assessment of its impact, and a set of specific recommended pathways. Whether you then continue with a programme at this clinic, take the plan elsewhere, or take time to think is entirely your decision. There is no obligation to commit to anything beyond the assessment itself.

You are paying for clarity. What you do with it is up to you.
