Their basic approach is to evaluate the tinnitus sufferer medically, otologically, audiologically, and psychosocially to establish a "Tinnitus Patient Profile," which is then used as a basis for designing an individually tailored treatment program selected from a menu of available options. The menu includes masking and auditory habituation as well as several complementary approaches such as hypnosis, cognitive therapy, biofeedback, relaxation methodology, pharmacologic management, and similar techniques and procedures.
