Ayurveda

According to Ayurveda, tinnitus is a vata disorder.

To alleviate this root cause-aggravation of vata in the nervous system-prepare a tea made from equal amounts of comfrey, cinnamon, and chamomile. Steep up to 1 teaspoon of this mixture per cup, and drink 2 or 3 times a day.

Also, you can take yogaraj guggulu (200 mg. 2 or 3 times a day) with warm water, after food. See Also: Herbs for the treatment of tinnitus.

Gently rubbing the mastoid bone (behind your ear) with warm sesame oil may be helpful. Try it twice day, morning and evening, for a week, and see if it helps. See Acupressure.

Garlic oil is often effective. Place 3 drops into your ear at night before going to bed.

Biofeedback

Biofeedback can help people cope with their tinnitus. The effect is probably by relieving stress. Patients are trained to relax the forehead muscles, which tighten during times of stress, and to warm their hands and feet.
