In a substantial proportion of cases, tinnitus is associated with dysfunction of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and cervical spine - this subtype is called somatosensory tinnitus.\n\nThis randomised controlled trial investigates the effectiveness of a multimodal intervention combining: (1) physiotherapy targeting TMJ and cervical spine dysfunction, (2) a structured combined exercise program (aerobic + resistance + breathing), and (3) psychological support (cognitive-behavioural psychoeducation) in patients with chronic somatosensory tinnitus.\n\nThe study also examines the acute effects of different types and intensities of physical exercise on tinnitus perception, and performs psychometric validation of Czech-language tinnitus assessment questionnaires.\n\nParticipants (N=160, aged 18-70 years) will be randomly assigned to either the multimodal intervention group (8 weeks, 5 sessions\u002Fweek) or a control group. Follow-up assessments will be conducted at 3, 12, and 24 months. The primary outcome is the change in the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI) score.",[29,30,31,32,33,34,35],"Ear Noise","Tinnitus, Noise Induced","Tinnitus, Subjective","Headache Other","Temporomandibular Dysfunction","Cervical Migraine Syndrome","Chronic Tinnitus",[37,38,39,40,41,42],"exercise therapy","tinnitus","multimodal therapy","subjective noise","somatosensory tinnitus","physiotherapy","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-03-11",{"date":46,"type":47},"2026-03-12","ACTUAL",{"date":49,"type":23},"2027-01-01",{"date":51,"type":23},"2030-12-31",{"name":53,"class":54},"Charles University, Czech Republic","OTHER"]
