Guest guest Posted January 15, 2004 Report Share Posted January 15, 2004 > I have a constant ringing in my ears. I've had my hearing checked before, and It's always been normal. It's been a few years since I had it checked, though. Ringing in the ears is called Tinnitus and has nothing to do with how well you hear or don't hear. The description/definition according to the medical dictionary I looked in is: " A sound in one or both ears, such as buzzing, ringing or whistling, occuring without an external stimulus and usually caused by a specific condition, such as an ear infection, the use of certain drugs, a blocked auditory tube or canal, or a head injury. " What it doesn't say is that another potential cause (particularly where chronic, long-term tinnitus is involved and there is no diagnosed basis) is a misalignment of the cranial bones, especially the temporal and/or parietal bones. If this is the cause, it can be treated with cranialsacral therapy. In many instances, the problem can be made to go bye-bye with just one session. Let me know if you would like more info on this.

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Tinnitus, from my experience and from researching, is more common in adrenal issues. I think low cortisol causes adrenaline reactions. This is an interesting article about adrenaline and tinnitus: http://www.cst.eu.com/downloads/what_is_tinnitus.doc Cheri -----Original Message----- Is it a thyroid or adrenal symptom or neither? sol .

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 I think I read that too and it is one of the reasons I am desperate to figure out the thyroid thing. The ringing is incessant and driving me bats!

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 I am with you on this. It sounds as if I have 100 crickets in my head. Last week I could hear it OVER a loud football game on TV. It is driving me nuts.

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Thanks for sharing this Cheri, it was really interesting. Several things resonated with me and I just booked an appointment for craniosacral therapy on Friday. Has anyone else tried this? Does anyone else have past traumas you think might have caused you to lock into the fight or flight mode? It sounds plausible based on my childhood, but then again, doesn't everyone have some sort of physical,social,emotional trauma at some point in their childhood?

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 I think ongoing trauma can affect adrenals like being in an abusive home growing up, because being in a constant fight or flight state can wear down adrenals. Also, when cortisol is low it makes a person's response to trauma worse than a person who had healthy levels. I sent an article on this a couple of weeks ago. So I think addressing the cortisol first and then dealing with any past trauma as a complimentary medicine for those who are still carrying issues around can certainly help. I know with me being in stage 7 my patience and response to stress has diminished dramatically. I am normally very good natured but get irritable when my condition worsens.

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Just last week, Pam posted this: I was fed up with the ringing in my ears tonight, found your post re B3 niacinamide .... had an unopened bottle in the pantry, TOOK THE B3, and within FIVE MINUTES, the ringing stopped. Incredible! If i ever get it again, I will try this.

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 B3 niacinamide is supposed to be good for mercury poisoning too and ringing in the ears is a big symptom of mercury poisoning, so this is very interesting. Thanks for posting that. Something I need to look into further. -----Original Message----- Just last week, Pam posted this: I was fed up with the ringing in my ears tonight, found your post re B3 niacinamide .... had an unopened bottle in the pantry, TOOK THE B3, and within FIVE MINUTES, the ringing stopped.

Has anyone else tried this? I get cranio-sacral and reflexology regularly, I find it very helpful. In fact in reflexology the massage therapist picked up right away on thyroid problems, and also on my liver issues before I got tested. I used to have a very unbalanced spinal rhythm which took a long time to 'fix'. But now I go into a much better balance quickly. Cranio has released painful joints better than any direct massage treatment and without the level of pain I experience from direct body work on joints/muscles. I'm really going to miss these treatments. sol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 I've had craniosacral treatments. There's a woman I know well in our area who does it. I really like it a lot and it's very healing. Re: ringing in the ears English stage 5 burden 12 wrote: > I just booked an appointment for > craniosacral therapy on Friday. Has anyone else tried this?
