Shirley, I know our little SFQ support group here in No Cal will meditate for your healing. And Nelson, for your friend.
Nelson, does you friend do the SFQ exercises or meditations? That can help a lot. Healing work from the outside does work, but even better when the person is doing the meditations and active exercises. Small Universe can help a lot with inner problems. And take note of Shawn's suggestion to work on the kidney area and the corresponding area of the spinal column.
But I think that at this point, the more your friend does Small Universe and some active exercise, the better. And keep working on him. It probably IS working, but 10 weeks is not a long time when it comes to serious hearing damage from loud volume. And in case you haven't check out that link to that earlier discussion that Shawn gives above. Gallen's suggestions are often very valuable and helpful (at least I find them so).
Hope all of this helps. And again, I and our little SFQ support group will meditate for healing in your friend's case as well.
