Sorry about the triple post up there--I have no idea why that happened. I only clicked once! :P
He is trying to set up the program, so it can be used through the internet,
This way you can use it, anywhere in the United States or the world.
I talked to them yesterday, this is something I think is very exciting about it.
Also read my UCLA posting, another exciting therapy.
The downside to dichonics is the cost. It is expensive to develop something like this and because this project is not receiving any funding, it will be fairly costly (estimated $2000-3000 or more). But to some, treatment and relief from T would be worth it. For others like me, it might me more of a challenge. There is a new bill that has been introduced by a Rep from Maine proposing funding for Tinnitus Research and Treatment, I posted it http://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/tinnitus-bill-tinnitus-research-and-treatment-act.575/, so maybe through something like this and Dr Dalton's connections/success with the VA, he can get the funding.
Being located in Amarillo, TX is a problem--Amarillo isn't close to anything, really, so it's good Dr Dalton is trying new ways of getting his methods to the public.
Regarding noise cancellation. You can download software at neurotechno.co.uk/downloads.html which induces temporary residual inhibition (TRI) of tinnitus. The TRI effect only lasts a short time, but it's nice to know that tinnitus can be stopped, even if it's only for a short period.
