Sound generators and Tinnitus

How can noise and sound generators help me with tinnitus?
Sound and noise generators can help you manage and live with tinnitus and hyperacusis (sensitivity to noise). They are forms of sound enrichment. Sound enrichment is a vital part of Tinnitus Retraining Therapy (TRT). Noise generators are also used in neurophysiologically based management (NBM), which is similar to TRT but may not include all parts of it.
What kind of equipment is available for people with tinnitus?
Sound and noise generators developed specifically for people with tinnitus include:
wearable noise generators
bedside or desktop noise generators
pillow speakers.
