Claims15
An acoustic device configured for the treatment of tinnitus, which acoustic device comprises:
- a wearable support (201), substantially in the form of headset;
- an acoustic signal generator, configured to deliver a treatment acoustic signal;
- a pair of acoustic emitters connected to said acoustic signal generator, wherein each acoustic emitter is arranged on said wearable support in such a way as to be positioned, in use, at a respective auricle of a user;
- an electromagnetic signals generator, configured to deliver an electromagnetic signal of treatment and comprising first inductive stimulation component and second capacitive stimulating means component carried by said support in such a way as to be positioned, in use, at or in proximity of the user's auricles,
- wherein said first inductive means component is configured to deliver a first electromagnetic signal in the area of the acoustic nerve and wherein said second capacitive component is configured to deliver a second electromagnetic signal at the cochlear area, at the organ of Corti.
