The Tinnitus Cure – Master Your Tinnitus
During this Tinnitus Alleviation Therapy (TAT) workshop you will learn to direct chi through the body's energy channels and to align the body with the earth. Tinnitus Alleviation Therapy includes three components:
- physical exercises to mobilize chi
- self-massage to activate blood circulation and the immune system
- special breathing techniques and visualization exercises
"Opening up the body toward the earth relaxes both body and mind, reduces fear, strengthens self-confidence, and enables a new sense of self", says Maria Holl. "In our courses, we have seen that daily practice of these exercises removes the aggravating effect of tinnitus in eight out of ten participants."
Maria Holl, a psychotherapist and alternative medicine practitioner from Aachen, Germany, was asked in 1995 by ear, nose, and throat specialist Dr. Herbert Philipps to help the growing number of his patients seeking relief from tinnitus. Holl observed that the vast majority were "very caring people who would do everything for their family, job and home. But they themselves always got the short end of the stick." So Holl developed TAT to help activate the patient's self-healing powers through a unique synthesis of psychotherapy, self-massage, and ancient Chinese medicine, which activates the body's energy system, or chi.
We are pleased to announce that Maria Holl will be coming to the US in the fall of 2013, following the release of her book Tinnitus Alleviation Therapy, a bestseller in Germany and Switzerland where it’s in its 7th edition.Maria Holl will be in the US for the first time this year, in October and November 2013, conducting a multi-city workshop and lecture series, targeted at both the general public and psychotherapists and health-care professionals.
Tinnitus Alleviation Therapy is an easy-to-read book. It's for Tinnitus sufferers who are looking for a solution to their problems. It offers a new approach based on the newest findings in brain research, practical suggestions, exercises and tested solutions. And it's for therapists who want a ground-breaking approach to come to terms with the symptoms of tinnitus.

Testimonial
I would like to attest to the effectiveness of Maria Holl’s Tinnitus Alleviation Therapy.
On 30 May 2013, I attended Maria Holl’s workshop at the International Institute for Bioenergetic Analysis (IIBA) Conference in Palermo, Sicily.
I went to the workshop out of general interest, not because I had heard anything about Maria’s work, but because I had suffered from tinnitus since about 1987, a period of about 25 years. I did not have any expectations of the workshop, apart from educating myself about tinnitus. My tinnitus was something I thought was a function of aging and that nothing could be done about it. I just had to live with it. Normally I am able to ignore it and get on with my life, but just occasionally, perhaps once or twice a year, it would intrude into my consciousness and nearly drive me crazy.
To my complete surprise, near the end of the workshop, after doing the exercises that Maria introduced, ably assisted by Walter, her husband, I noticed that my tinnitus had completely disappeared. The silence in my ears was profound and I was able to hear people speak clearly and hear birds singing in the trees outside the room, as if for the first time. It was a wonderfully pleasant and completely unexpected experience that I was then able to share with the group and with Walter and Maria.
I did notice a few sceptical looks from some workshop attendees, but that did not detract from the reality of what I was experiencing – the complete absence of an orchestra of crickets and cicadas in my ears, and a crystal clear silence in which I could hear the sounds of the outside world.
This improved state lasted unabated for about four months, but more recently I have noticed that at times of stress the tinnitus has returned. I kept doing several of Maria’s exercises for a month or so after returning home to New Zealand, following the IIBA Conference, and the recent return of the tinnitus can be attributed solely to my personal failure to continue doing the exercises. The tinnitus is still much less severe than before I attended Maria’s workshop in Sicily, and the occasion of writing this attestation is a reminder that the answer is in my own hands now that I have the tools to relieve myself of tinnitus.
I am happy to share my experience, and hope that other tinnitus sufferers can find relief by following the method and exercises that Maria Holl has developed.
