Abstract

Tinnitus onset is associated with numerous auditory and psychological correlates in the general population, and are compounded in musicians. With the assistance of patient quotes and a case study, this article explores the vocational, emotional, and practical factors which should be considered by clinicians who work with this population. To better serve music-exposed individuals, especially music industry professionals, telehealth has proven to be a viable and advantageous care delivery method due in part to decreased barriers to access.
