Study China 2025

In February 2025, the results of a clinical study were published in Hangzhou, China, investigating the effect of auricular acupressure on chronic, hearing-induced tinnitus.

The results of this Chinese study are consistent with the studies previously published in Germany and confirm the effectiveness of continuous tactile stimulation around the ear.


Furthermore, the study also recognized and confirmed our previous findings.

Study China 2025


In February 2025, the results of a clinical study were published in Hangzhou, China, investigating the effect of auricular acupressure on chronic, hearing-induced tinnitus.

The results of this Chinese study are in line with the studies published so far in Germany and confirm the effectiveness of permanent touch stimulation around the ear.

 Furthermore, the study also recognized and confirmed our previous findings.

ForgTin Real-World-Study 2026

​

As early as 2021, a first observational study with 39 participants showed a significant decrease in perceived tinnitus volume during the combined use of ForgTin® and digital self-help.
A new real-world study with 440 ForgTin users replicates and expands on these findings: The observed improvements were of a similar order of magnitude – and the change in perceived tinnitus volume also proved to be a significant predictor of whether users kept or returned ForgTin®.

Eine neue Real-World-Studie mit 440 ForgTin-NutzerInnen repliziert und erweitert diese Erkenntnisse: Die beobachteten Verbesserungen lagen in einer ähnlichen Größenordnung – und die Veränderung der wahrgenommenen Tinnitus-Lautstärke erwies sich zudem als signifikanter Prädiktor dafür, ob Nutzer ForgTin® behielten oder zurückgaben.
