Detailed Description: Tinnitus is the auditory phantom sensation in the absence of external sound stimulation. Tinnitus that persisted more than six months without improvement can be called chronic tinnitus. One report proposed the neurophysiological model of tinnitus. In addition, tinnitus patients suffered from insomnia, irritability, anxiety and/or depression.

Current management of tinnitus is a drug-based treatment and/or nutritional supplementation. Music therapy, hearing aid therapy, and tinnitus retraining therapy (TRT), were also applied for patients with tinnitus. Even though, success rates of various tinnitus treatments were still unsatisfactory till now.
