The EarPopper is a safe, simple, non-surgical, non-drug related prescription device for treating such common conditions as Otitis Media with Effusion, Aerotitis/Barotitis (caused by rapid elevation changes), and Eustachain Tube Dysfunction in children and adults. In other studies published in the Peer Reviewed ENT Journal and the Journal of Audiology, the EarPopper® demonstrated the safety and efficacy of relieving ear pressure problems in both Children and Adults.

Now you can get instant relief from common ear problems and restore your hearing with the EarPopper. This easy-to-use prescription device is the safe, simple way to get rid of fluid or pressure build-up in your middle ear. Treatment can be performed in your doctor’s office and at home.

When the ET doesn't function normally and the middle ear isn't ventilated properly the middle ear becomes a closed space with unbalanced pressure. An unbalanced middle ear forces pressure on the eardrum which is not only uncomfortable, but also affects your hearing. This closed space also cannot drain properly resulting in fluid build up behind the eardrum. Nonsurgical home treatment of middle ear effusion and associated hearing loss of children. Part I: Clinical trial’ ENT JOURNAL Sept. 2005. ‘Nonsurgical home treatment of middle ear effusion and associated hearing loss in children. Part II: Validation study’ ENT JOURNAL Oct. 2005. NOTE: Patients, please print out the medical authorization form andhave your prescription faxed in toll free to 888-685-5455. Always consult your doctor before use. In a four year study sponsored by the National Institutes of Health, 85% of children diagnosed with hearing loss from persistent Otitis Media with Effusion (OME) who where treated with the EarPopper ®regained their hearing. The EarPopper ®restored their hearing to normal without antibiotics or vent tubes. The EarPopper® has been clinically proven to relieve negative ear pressure. Negative ear pressure can cause:

If the Eustachian tube stays closed, as during inhalant allergy, head cold, or middle ear infection, the oxygen trapped in the middle ear cavity is soon absorbed into the mucosa, creating a vacuum. The ensuring vacuum causes the cavity to fill with mucous. If uninterrupted, it will continue to do so until the pressure can cause tympanic membrane perforation. It is that in-between state that presents varying types of possible objective tinnitus: roaring, buzzing, humming, heartbeat, and in some cases, spasm of the tensor tympani and/or venous hum (when the pressure on vascular structures and surrounding tissues become too great). All of this, of course, can be ascertained through tympanometry, otoscopy, and other diagnostic measures.In an NIH (National Institutes of Health) funded the clinical study on children, the EarPopper® restored hearing to normal limits in 85% of the children without surgery or medication.

Part I: Clinical trial and Part II:Validation study (PDF) After 2-3 seconds of air flow, swallow with mouth closed while the motor is running. (Hint: holding a small amount of liquid in mouth prior to procedure may aid in swallowing.)When you mix a dark, moist, unbalanced middle ear space with the common cold or allergies you have the perfect breeding ground for an infection.
