Resolution of severe hypoacusia and first degree tinnitus concomitant with chiropractic care

A ChiroSecure Research Update

Abstract: A 62-year-old female presented for chiropractic care after a medical diagnosis of severe hypoacusia and first degree tinnitus following weight overload.

Discussion: A four-visit course of care was undertaken, using Diversified Technique for the diagnosis and adjustment of subluxations. After four weeks of care, a 90% increase in hearing was noted on the left side. Her subluxation listings remained consistent.

Conclusion: Chiropractic care may be of assistance in the management of hypoacusia. Further research is required.
