The Tinnitus Control Center is a company focused on developing and marketing an innovative, non-invasive treatment system for predominant-tone tinnitus called Tinnitus Phase-Out™.

This unique therapy, pioneered by Daniel S.J. Choy, M.D., works through the phase-shifting of sound waves. The system employs an unobtrusive Portable Treatment Device for convenient, in-home delivery of an individually customized therapy, a phase-shifted signal that fades away tinnitus symptoms.
