Customer Reviews
Tinnitus GODSEND for an old Army, Vietnam Machine-gunner
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!
I'm 56 years old and I've suffered from tinnitus for many years (as documented by the VA Administration, but they have DONE NOTHING FOR ME!)
Three years ago, my tinnitus was driving me NUTS. I couldn't fall asleep at night, I was having difficulty trying to "focus" during the day. I finally found a place in Dallas, Texas that helped me, called Callier Clinic.
I went to the CALLIER CLINIC (part of the University of Texas at Dallas) for an evaluation of my tinnitus (and I think they agreed I was nearly off my rocker, from the sounds I heard ALL THE TIME from the tinnitus.) My tinnitus by the way sounds like I have a combination of rattle snakes and June bugs in my ears, with an occasional electronic buzz saw. I spent two years wearing what look like hearing aids that basically generate a "white sound" that in essence drown out the tinnitus and "re-train" your brain so it basically "tunes-out" the noises a tinnitus sufferer hears. After two years (and about $3,000) I finally found some relief from my ailment.
I went back to Callier Clinic again for a follow-up (about a year ago). During my meeting with the audiologist, I learned there is a new device on the market that provides additional help for the tinnitus sufferer. My audiologist allowed me to demo the unit briefly in her office.... It was like I had just jumped into a hot-tube after chopping wood all day long. I found immediate relief by this product, that looked almost like an Apple iPod, (made by some folks in Australia.) Except, this device, had I wanted to purchase it, came with a price tag that would set me back $4,000 plus some change. I left the Callier Clinic without buying the device, like a dog with my tail, stuck between his legs (or in my case, between my ears...)
Recently, my wife and I purchased "his and hers" iPhone 3Gs. (I own 4 Mac computers, and took to these "new fangled" iPhones like a "Duck To Water." I may be an old fart, but I was (and still am) having a ball with all the APPS you can download for an iPhone...
I stumbled into "AMBIANCE" and thought I had died an gone to heaven. For 99 cents, I feel as if I robbed a bank and got the snazzy thing-a-ma-bob I saw at the Callier Clinic in Dallas AND I SAVED $4,000 IN THE PROCESS. I am totally, TOTALLY delighted with my iPhone 3G and especially AMBIANCE...
Ambiance has "White Sound, Blue Sound, Brown Sound" and other pleasing sounds that work very effectively for me in regard to the "rattle snakes and June bugs" I hear in my head all the time. You simply CAN NOT imagine how thankful I am for all the wonderful sounds that Matt Coneybeare has in this nice little audio package.
No, I am not related to Matt, (I don't even know who the guy is) but I can tell you, I am one of this biggest fans.
Now, I can take the $4,000 I saved (by NOT buying that audio gizmo made in Australia) and actually buy an airline ticket and FLY to Australia.
Thanks Matt... YOU DONE GOOD!
Great way to focus!
I always work at coffee shops and libraries, but they're never as quiet as I hope. 99 cents is a small price to pay for being able to block out distractions and get good work done.
Purchased because of the highly received reviews but....
....I have to say I'm not that impressed. I purchased the application 'aSleep' and LOVE it, but with the highly rated reviews of this application I decided that 'more options' meant it would be a winner, and I have to admit I was WRONG... This application lacks many things, the volume for one, which is very important changed dramatically between each sound, so either you can't hear it, or when changing sounds you think your ears are going to start to bleed! The 'crickets' sound, sounds just like the iphone ring tone, the waves one is pretty decent. All in all, I just ended up deleting the application. I think the design of the application is really good, but I have to admit I like the 'touch sounds' better on aSleep, but this is only my opinion, check them both out! Take Care.
