The Sound Behind the Science
Built by a Grammy-winning producer
Theron Feemster spent decades engineering sound that moves people. Now he is engineering sound that heals.
Theron Feemster, known professionally as Neff-U, has shaped the sound of modern music. His production credits span Dr. Dre, Eminem, Mary J. Blige, and dozens of platinum records. Behind the studio monitors, Feemster has lived with the persistent reality of tinnitus.
That personal experience became the driving force behind SoundVida, the company Feemster founded to bring 20 years of peer-reviewed acoustic desensitization research into the modern era. SoundVida owns and operates Neuromonics, transforming what was once a legacy hardware treatment into an accessible, app-based platform that delivers clinical-grade tinnitus care to anyone with a smartphone.
I spent my career engineering sound that moves people emotionally. With Neuromonics, we are engineering sound that heals.
It is led by someone who understands both the science of auditory neurology and the craft of sound at the highest professional level.

Why a music producer builds better tinnitus treatment
Precision Frequency Engineering
Generic tinnitus apps use white noise or nature sounds. Neuromonics uses spectrally-modified compositions calibrated to each patient's specific hearing loss profile. This is sound engineering applied to neuroscience.
Psychoacoustic Design
Music production is fundamentally about controlling emotional response through sound. Acoustic desensitization applies the same psychoacoustic principles to retrain the brain's limbic response to tinnitus.
20 Years of Clinical Validation
The acoustic desensitization protocol behind Neuromonics has been validated across 14 peer-reviewed clinical trials with an 83% efficacy rate. This is not a wellness app. It is a clinically validated, HIPAA-compliant medical platform.
The mission is personal
For the estimated 750 million adults living with tinnitus, treatment options have historically been limited to masking devices, cognitive behavioral therapy, or simply being told to live with it. Neuromonics exists because Theron Feemster refused to accept that answer for himself, and he refuses to accept it for anyone else.
Every element of the Neuromonics platform, from the acoustic desensitization protocol to the 1-on-1 virtual specialist model to the accessible subscription pricing, was designed to remove barriers between people who suffer from tinnitus and the clinical-grade treatment they deserve.
Sound Vitamins
Our proprietary algorithms modify music to account for individual hearing profiles, providing targeted stimulation to the auditory system that promotes neurological desensitization to tinnitus.
