The Challenge

Tinnitus disrupts daily life

Persistent ringing affects concentration, sleep, and mood. Consistent vagal engagement with Pulsetto steadies autonomic tone, reduces intrusive noise, and supports calmer days.

You experience tinnitus as a constant disturbance:

Ringing in ears
Perceived buzzing or whooshing
Difficulty concentrating due to sound
Sleep disruption from tinnitus
Frustration from persistent symptoms
Sensitivity to sound increases

How vagus nerve stimulation impacts tinnitus

Vagus nerve as a circuit control

The vagus nerve links body signals to brain regions that regulate stress and perception, shaping how the nervous system responds to tinnitus.

Stability through autonomic balance

Steadying autonomic function reduces sensitivity to tinnitus triggers, helping you regain focus and daytime energy.

Training the rest response

Regular, brief stimulation trains the body to relax more quickly when sounds arise, aiding calmer mornings.

Non-invasive delivery

Pulsetto uses surface electrodes on the neck — no surgery, no implants, just a controlled electrical field.

What to expect

How Pulsetto guides tinnitus management

Four minutes before bed helps signal the body to downshift, supporting calmer sensory processing.

1

Calms physiological arousal

4-minute sessions lower sympathetic arousal, helping the brain interpret tinnitus signals more calmly.

2

Promotes rest–digest state

Vagal engagement nudges the body toward rest-dominant regulation, easing intrusive tinnitus sensations.

3

Reduces stress-linked symptoms

Lower stress markers align with quieter tinnitus perception and improved mood.

4

Supports consistency

Daily use builds a predictable routine that supports gradual tinnitus relief over weeks.

What to expect week by week

Eight-week tinnitus-focused rhythm

Users notice gradual quieting of tinnitus and steadier sleep with daily use.
