How Yoga Helps Hearing
Increases blood flow to the head, neck, and ears through inverted and forward-bending poses
Reduces stress hormones (cortisol) that can worsen tinnitus and hearing sensitivity
Improves overall cardiovascular health which supports inner ear function
Promotes relaxation and mindfulness — helps manage hearing loss-related anxiety
Strengthens neck and jaw muscles — reduces tension that can affect ear pressure
Deep breathing exercises improve oxygen delivery to auditory structures

Bhramari Pranayama for Tinnitus Relief
Sit comfortably in a quiet room with eyes closed
Close both ears gently with your thumbs
Place remaining fingers lightly over your eyes and forehead
Inhale deeply through the nose
Exhale slowly while making a humming sound like a bee
Feel the vibrations in your head and ears
Repeat 5-10 times, twice daily
This practice has been shown to reduce tinnitus perception in many patients
Important Precautions
Start slowly if you are new to yoga — do not force any position
Avoid inverted poses if you have high blood pressure or glaucoma
Consult your doctor before starting yoga if you have vertigo or balance issues
Yoga supports hearing health but cannot replace hearing aids for hearing loss
Practice consistently — benefits develop over weeks and months
