‘Banish Tinnitus’ is a very well known tinnitus which often advertises in the paid adverts section of most Google searches into tinnitus or related searches.

The creator of the site, Paul Carrington offers a book which he claims reveals three natural steps that will cure your tinnitus, using no drugs or vitamins. There are probably no reliable cures for tinnitus, and so someone who suggests that there are may be making an unsubstantiated claim.

The language of the website is orientated towards “hard selling” making a number of claims that do not appear to be logical.

He alludes to the idea that doctors and the entire pharmaceutical industry are potentially involved in a conspiracy to profit from unfounded medication, while withholding critical information about natural remedies which work just as well. All this serves to do is fuel distrust of the medical community and gain the trust of tinnitus sufferers, some of whom may believe Paul Carrington has the answer. Below is an excerpt from the Banish Tinnitus website:

“Whether or not you like it the drug industry (and that includes doctors) are in it to make money. And while you're health is a large priority, the fat cats in the industry and even the doctors themselves hope and prey that you will never discover this information. What's more, they do everything in their power to make sure information like this never sees the light of day! They'd rather keep selling you and me half-ass solutions that deliver severely lacking results...if any...so that you have no choice but to keep coming back to them.”

Doctors are sometimes not the best people to provide advice on tinnitus as some are unaware of the large number of treatment options available, but to accuse of them of deliberately causing harm to patients by withholding information is simply untrue and dangerous.

There are a number of supposed review sites evaluating whether the ‘Banish Tinnitus’ formula is a scam or a reputable form of treatment. Although, they all give Banish Tinnitus a glowing review, it is possible that these review sites might have been written by the company behind Banish Tinnitus or their affiliates.

Respected Books on Tinnitus

There are a number of other books on the market claiming they can cure your tinnitus. Again to re-iterate, to date, there is no scientifically-based cure for tinnitus, but if you are looking to learn more about tinnitus, it is advisable that you buy a book written by a well-respected scientist in the field of tinnitus. Two recommend books are:

 Tinnitus Retraining Therapy: Implementing the Neurophysiological Model by Pawel J. Jastreboff and Jonathan W. P. Hazell.

And

Tinnitus: Questions and Answers by Jack A. Vernon and Barbara Tabachnick Sanders.
