About us

    Tinzo was born from experience, built with care

    Tinnitus can feel lonely, overwhelming and relentless. Tinzo was created to offer a different path. A path where you feel supported and understood, with practical tools always within reach.

    From noise to calm, the story behind Tinzo

    Tinzo grew out of the personal experience of founder Koen. In 2018 he developed tinnitus and hyperacusis. That changed everything. His work stopped, hobbies faded into the background and his social life came under pressure too.

    The frustration of being told "you'll just have to learn to live with it", combined with the lack of targeted help and long waiting lists, left Koen feeling, like so many others, that he was on his own.

    Today, tinnitus and hyperacusis are no longer a defining factor in Koen's life. Everything that once seemed impossible is possible again. What made the difference? Understanding what tinnitus is, how it works and how you can relate to it differently.

    Tinzo doesn't take tinnitus or hyperacusis away, but it does help you move it to the background. It no longer has to play a defining role in your life. Change is possible. You can experience space again.
