TMS therapy for sound sensitivity (misophonia)
Part of Mental health clinical trials.

This study looks at how people with misophonia react to sounds that are hard to tolerate, like chewing or throat clearing. It explores whether slowly getting used to these sounds can change how you hear them.
This trial tests whether drinking lavender herbal tea can help people with misophonia, a condition where certain sounds cause strong negative feelings. If you are bothered by at least three trigger sounds and meet the other criteria, you may be able to join.
This study tests whether repeated magnetic pulses (TMS) can help people with ongoing tinnitus. If you have had tinnitus for at least 3 months and it bothers you enough to score 38 or more on the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI), you may be eligible.
This trial tests if a non-invasive brain stimulation method called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can reduce stubborn auditory hallucinations (hearing voices) in people with schizophrenia who haven't improved enough with medication.
This trial tests if navigated repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (a non-invasive brain stimulation technique) can help reduce chronic tinnitus symptoms. It aims to find a safe and effective treatment option for people with persistent ringing in the ears.
This study tests a brain-stimulation treatment called TMS to see if it improves how people with PTSD unlearn fear and form safer memories. It may help reduce fear responses by targeting specific fear-circuit areas in the brain.
