Description

The Oto app is the best way to manage tinnitus.

Founded by military doctors and world-leading tinnitus specialists, the Oto program will teach you to become unaware of your tinnitus and stop noticing it. If you do notice it, it won’t bother you.

It’s like when you fly on a plane. At first the sound of the engines is very loud. But after 10 minutes your brain tunes out the sound and you can read, watch TV or even go to sleep. You don’t notice the sound of the engines.

This process is called habituation.

When you are habituated to your tinnitus it no longer has a impact on your life. You don’t think about it and it doesn’t make you feel bad.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The Oto app uses something called cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). CBT has been proven to be the best way to tune out tinnitus.

CBT is normally delivered by talking one on one with an audiologist or a psychologist.

Oto now recreates this experience.

Each day you listen to one or two audio sessions that use CBT and other therapeutic techniques. You work your way through a structured audio program that lasts approximately 3 months.

The app then tells you to repeat and practice sessions from the program until you have tuned out your tinnitus.

HOW DO I START?

First, Oto will assess your tinnitus stage to then recommend a personalised plan for you. Habituation is when your brain no longer reacts negatively to tinnitus, so that you stop noticing it. Whatever your stage, we can help reduce the impact of your tinnitus.

DAILY GUIDANCE

You can listen to just 5-10 minute audio sessions each day which will introduce you to a range of clinically proven techniques. Over the course of the program, you’ll learn the tools and techniques that work best for you and your tinnitus. Gaining an understanding of these techniques can help to relieve your tinnitus impact. Enjoy the renowned guidance of Anna Pugh - an award-winning audiologist and tinnitus coach - from the comfort of your own home with the daily sessions.

Through patience and commitment, you will learn how to tune out tinnitus.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY ABOUT OTO

“After having a scuba diving accident, I developed tinnitus. I found Oto, wow, what a blessing. I was going off my mind and suddenly this had success. Keep up the sessions, go over it again. Worth every penny, it’s a lifesaver. 10/10 stars Thanks to the Oto team.” - Clinton

“The OTO app has changed my life. I have had tinnitus for 3 years with no success in dealing with it. When I found the app and used it every day my life changed. It hasn’t cured it but has helped me get in with my life instead of being a hostage to the noise. Each day is easier and brighter. Thank you.” - Taylor

Don’t stop doing what you’re doing, Oto!

This app is fantastic. The thing I found most comforting, beyond it being evidence-informed, was that the people who developed it have lived experience with tinnitus. It really shows in the design of the program.

Still Confused

I have been using the app for over a week and it’s early days but I feel hope in it’s efficacy.

However, I’m still unsure how to progress through the various levels and I feel I’m not absorbing the material (ie it’s not reinforced) before I’m into another topic.

I feel the app needs more sigh posts and clearer directions and instructions.
