Oto Tinnitus Treatment: How This Digital CBT App Can Help You Tune Out the Noise

Dr. Emily Kiser Au.D.

Jul 8, 2025

Imagine lying in bed, desperate for sleep, but all you can focus on is persistent ringing in your ears. Tinnitus is intrusive, leaving you struggling with stress, disrupted sleep, and increasing anxiety.

You reach for your phone. Enter Oto: an innovative tool at your fingertips designed to help you take control of these sounds.

What is the Oto App for Tinnitus?

By using the Oto app, you gain access to a self-guided, mobile therapeutic program specifically designed for managing tinnitus. Developed by military doctors and world-leading tinnitus specialists, Oto offers an innovative way to address tinnitus without the need for frequent clinical visits.

The foundation of Oto is built on solid expertise. It was created by professionals who understand the unique challenges of tinnitus, and it is supported by evidence-based practices honed in environments that demand reliability and precision.

Oto employs clinically proven methods, notably cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), for tinnitus relief. This evidence-based tinnitus treatment integrates strategies that retrain your brain's response to the sound, helping to make it less noticeable and less distressing over time.

The Science Behind the Success: Digital CBT for Tinnitus

The core mechanism of Oto lies in tinnitus habituation. Unlike methods that aim to silence the sound, CBT focuses on changing your perception and emotional reaction to tinnitus.

Core Modules (Multimodal Therapy)

The app offers key components in daily sessions to support your journey:

  • Guided Audio Sessions: These include CBT exercises and education to help you understand and manage your response to tinnitus.

  • Tinnitus-Specific Mindfulness and Relaxation Techniques: These techniques allow you to relax and reduce stress related to tinnitus.

  • Sound Therapy: Features such as soundscapes and white noise aid in distraction and improve sleep quality.

  • Physical Stretches: Specific exercises are offered to target neck and jaw tension, common in many people experiencing tinnitus.

How Oto Provides Lasting Tinnitus Relief

With Oto, you aren’t just managing symptoms. You are enhancing your quality of life through an accessible, flexible approach that fits seamlessly into your daily routine.

Accessible & Flexible

You benefit from the convenience of daily sessions right from your home, eliminating long wait times for expensive appointments. Oto is designed to be your tinnitus management solution whenever and wherever you need it, taking just a few minutes of your day for sessions that leave a lasting impact.

Customized Journey

Oto begins with a comprehensive assessment from your friendly neighborhood hearing experts.

This allows us to personalize your therapy plan according to your specific stage and experience with tinnitus and make sure that the tools and techniques provided are most effective for your unique needs.

Improving Quality of Life

While Oto cannot directly cure tinnitus (as there is currently no cure for it), it manages and addresses multiple common challenges associated with tinnitus symptoms.

  • Better Sleep: With tools and stories tailored for tinnitus sleep assistance, you reclaim restful nights.

  • Reduced Anxiety: Learn practical techniques for stress management, helping you regain calm in daily life.

  • Long-Term Control: The ultimate goal is achieving tinnitus habituation, enabling you to tune out the noise and regain control over your life.
