Article Highlights ENT’s Using "Holistic" Therapies

"Of the more than 13,000 health care providers who are members of the American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery (AAO)_, exactly three of them officially practice holistic otolaryngology as members of the American Holistic Medical Association (AHMA)…," according to the latest issue of ENT Today (April 2008).

The article goes on to describe the individual philosophies and work of these medical doctors and each uses natural supplements, meditation, and acupuncture along with standard conventional medical treatments. Where considered appropriate they will bring their holistic talents to bear basic hearing issues such as tinnitus, sinusitus, and allergies.

While there are only three otolaryngologists who are members of the AHMA, many ENT doctors are embracing so-called "alternative" treatments for a myriad of conditions including tinnitus. Arches Tinnitus Relief Formula® is recommended by nearly 1,500 ENT physicians for their patients with tinnitus.

Michael Seidman, MD FACS, considered by his peers in the AAO one of the preeminent tinnitus authorities, agrees, "I recommend Arches Tinnitus Combo Pack, a three-month supply of Arches Tinnitus Relief, Stress and B-12 Formulas. At a minimum, I tell my patients to take at least four bottles (three months) of Arches Tinnitus Relief Formula® to determine their total degree of relief." While firmly grounded in conventional medicine and surgery, Dr. Seidman’s believes it is important for a physician to avail his patients of "alternative" therapies when warranted. In addition to being co-director of a tinnitus clinic for a major healthcare system he was also named  the Chair of the Complementary / Integrative Medicine Program.

Two of the main active ingredients in Arches Tinnitus Relief Formula are Ginkgo Biloba Extract and zinc, chelated to improve absorption. And though these are considered "natural" and "alternative", both have been shown in numerous placebo-controlled studies to be effective for many in reducing tinnitus noise.

    What is sinusitis, Could you please let me know, what is it?

  2. admin Says:

    According to Wikipedia, “Sinusitis is an inflammation of the paranasal sinuses, which may or may not be as a result of infection, from bacterial, fungal, viral, allergic or autoimmune issues. Newer classifications of sinusitis refer to it as rhinosinusitis, taking into account the thought that inflammation of the sinuses cannot occur without some inflammation of the nose as well (rhinitis).”
