Solace

A multi-sensory tinnitus therapy device that uses principles of mindfulness and relaxation to guide users towards habituation.

Approximately 1 in 7 adults in the UK experience tinnitus, which is the perception of sound such as a ringing or buzzing, without an external source for that sound.

There is no cure for it and sufferers look for instant relief by ignoring it and masking it with other sounds, which can intensify awareness and distress over time because the brain perceives avoidance as a threat.

Therapy through light, sound, and breath.

Solace is a multi-functional tinnitus therapy device which is informed by Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), one of the most clinically validated and effective treatments for managing tinnitus symptoms.

The Experience

Silence isn’t the goal – calm is.

Solace prioritises choice and offers the user a variety of features to use as tinnitus treatment:

Soothing sounds
Breathwork
Aromatherapy
Mood lighting
Talking therapy
Sleep cycles

Breathwork cycles are carried out by following the flow of steam from the diffuser.

By engaging multiple senses, the device gently redirects attention away from the tinnitus, reducing the brain’s focus on the ears and creating a space for calm and control.
