My tinnitus seems to be worse when my blood pressure is less controlled.

If that isn't just a figment of my imagination, a possible mechanism for your technique is that you are relaxing (or so).

On a similar note, sometimes I feel my tinnitus as much as hearing it - it does feel like a pressure in my ears/head. It doesn't feel like real air pressure so much as the sound is pressing on the insides of my ears. Maybe a blood pressure thing like yours?
