Tinnitus: ringing in the ear
Tinnitus , more commonly known as ringing, buzzing, ringing in the ear, can be caused by various medical causes such problems in the spine, circulation, vascular origins … or as we have appointed some kind of alteration in the ear or nervous system. In the first case, called objective tinnitus is caused by physical agents such as vascular problems, circulation, which can be detected with the tools needed by an otolaryngologist. It can be solved with a particular medication. The case of subjective tinnitus is those that the problem is as we have explained the principle in the auditory central nervous system. There is no agent to produce it as in the case of goals, so we can say that there really is not as sound, just as subjective perception of the person concerned.
Tinnitus therapy involves the use of headphones with a noise familiar. This sound stimulates the auditory system accustomed, so that we can focus the patient on that sound. The audiologist must configure the sound so that it is also possible to hear the tinnitus, otherwise we will not be able to get a good habituation. To understand this we can say that most of us when we were sitting watching TV in our house, we can hear how it starts to rain by the noise of rain on the windows. But what happens if we focus our attention on television? Get stop listening to that sound, but really follow raining even if the rain is more intense than before.
Child Audiology: Hearing aids or implants for children
The child audiology is the exploration of hearing loss in children and infants, mainly differentiated adult audiology in the methodology used for the screening and diagnosis. This type of examination should be carried out by audiologists who specialize in prosthetic fitting of hearing aids or cochlear implants in children, still needed two professionals in each session for a proper exploration until the child reaches at least 5 years. The performance of audiometric testing children is conditioned by the child’s age and attention span, concentration, motor skills, etc.
We also highlight the achievement of objective evidence such as Steady state evoked potentials and otoacoustic emissions that are normally performed in hospitals at birth and does not require the active participation of the child. We can differentiate the hearing screening for infants with risk factors. In recent years there is a universal screening to all newborns as in most Autonomous Communities in Spain by objective evidence, Evoked Potentials and Otoacoustic Emissions to help detect problems conductive or sensorineural hearing loss in infants without risk factors above. Despite screening, there are cases that go undetected hearing problems, and they can begin to be visible in the months following the different stages of development.
Gene therapy
Hereditary diseases caused by lack of an enzyme or protein are the most suitable for these treatments. But also those in which it does not matter too precise and accurate control of the levels of the protein whose production is to be induced by genetic manipulation (eg, factor VIII in the blood). It is usually monogenic diseases, caused by the alteration of an anomalous single recessive gene in which just the mere presence of the gene product to correct the defect. At the end of the 80 were considered to be suitable alterations of the gene therapy of Lesch-Nyhan disease (caused by the absence of the enzyme HPRT, hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyl transferase, which causes severe mental deficiency and compulsive tendency to self-mutilation) and immunodeficiencies and PNP (very bad, caused by the lack of a purine nucleoside phosphorylase) and ADA (which have the “bubble” children, in which the lack of the enzyme adenosine deaminase leaves them completely defenseless against pathogens, forcing them to live in a completely sterile environment.) In these cases were known and had been cloned the genes involved. Suffice a small presence of the gene products necessary to correct the alteration and slightly higher levels of the same do not seem to have negative consequences.
Massage Therapy to Relieve Stress
Avoid stress , could be that your skin is aging prematurely. The massage therapy can be a great ally to relieve stress. The body’s response to a situation of stress long become tired, fatigue, and sickly. Accuses skin color that state and showing no signs of premature aging. The stress on the skin occurs in two ways: from the bottom of the body due to poor nutrition and stress caused by work, or environmental pollution, etc. We can suffer stress without realizing it, as it is manifested in many ways, such as lack of appetite, difficulty sleeping, tired muscles and mood swings.
All this has a solution. The message over time, has been an ancient remedy from ancient Rome to soothe mind and body of men and women of high birth, just remember to Cleopatra milk baths, herb and mud and hot water soaks and cold. The heat of hot stones is a relaxing and healing experience that incorporates the sense of communion with nature, while it becomes an effective body treatment. This works using basalt stones of varying sizes heated in water and applied with massage on key points of the body. They are used similarly frozen marble stones alternating with the hot.
Stress Management
Stress Management is a collective term for ‘stress management methods’, i.e. for methods to psychologically damaging stress to reduce or completely eliminate. Stress management techniques can be helpful if resilience and self-healing powers due to internal and external pressures to maintain the performance and health of people is not sufficient. The stress in particular in the working population in most countries takes the last few years in the, just by working people with children. Recovery by holiday can quickly reduce stress contribute to the influence, but do not target the fundamental problem. In the context of stress in children and adolescents, for example, the stress is through an increase in workload in the eight-year high school.Stress Management is a collective term for ‘stress management methods’, i.e. for methods to psychologically damaging stress to reduce or completely eliminate.

Stress symptoms such as abdominal pain or fear of audits according to recent studies connect every fifth child in, often accompanied by poor concentration and performance problems, these symptoms are classified as cries for help. For stress management talks are with the child and a good balance between school and leisure. Enhanced performance requirements for the children by their parents turn out to be counter productive. Every person is different, which affects the choice for him individually most appropriate form of stress. Perhaps studies consider the effectiveness of various stress management procedures used in this aspect (yet) take into account enough, but go the same conditions of all the subjects from.
