Do Binaural Beats Cure Tinnitus???

Binaural beats are everywhere online, especially in communities searching for tinnitus relief. You'll see videos promising "miracle cures," audio packs claiming to "retrain your brain," and testimonials that sound almost too good to be true. In this episode, Dr. Layne Garrett breaks down what binaural beats actually are, how they affect the brain, and why the science doesn't support the claims you've probably seen on YouTube or social media.   We explore what recent studies *do* show — including small trials suggesting short-term reductions in distress — while also examining the limitations that marketers often ignore, such as tiny sample sizes, inconsistent results, and short follow-up periods. Dr. Garrett discusses how these mild effects compare to evidence-based tinnitus treatments like cognitive behavioral therapy, tinnitus retraining therapy, hearing aids, and bimodal neuromodulation.   If you've ever wondered whether binaural beats are worth your time, or you're simply looking for trustworthy tinnitus information without hype, this episode gives you the clarity you've been searching for.
