Just like topic says. I'm having tinnitus and I'm worried that I-doser can make it worse. Is it possible?

In contrast to the other poster's responses, YES IT CAN make your tinnitus worse, but not due to the function of the program or the sounds associated with it. ANY sounds that are too loud for too long can make your situation worse. I would reccomend a GOOD set of "closed" headphones WITHOUT and noise cancelling circuitry. Ensure the rest of your environment is as quiet as possible. Unplug the fridge and turn of the HVAC if you have to. Use I-Doser at a low-moderate level, leaning towards the low side. Due to the length of some of the doses, you're ears will "compensate" for the volume, and make it seem "not as loud". This causes many headphone users to "turn it up", greatly increasing their chances of permanent hearing damage.

Actually I dont think binural beat will work very well if you have tinatus because it means your hearing will be not as good in one ear as the other.
