The invention belongs to the technical field of medical equipment, in particular to an inner ear low-frequency shear stress vibrator for treating Meniere's disease. So far, the principle of endolymphatic shunt for treating the Meniere's disease is that the endolymph is manually opened to replace the non-functional endolymphatic sac in order to ease endolymphatic hydrops. However, the therapeutic theory is challenged by a clinical research specifically designed by Denmark. The invention designs the vibrator which carries out non-invasive low-frequency shear stress on an inner ear via mastoid process skin, and determines a release method and parameters. The clinical application of the vibrator can remove the pain of patients with Meniere's disease receiving treatment in operations, eliminate any risk in operative treatment and remarkably reduce medical cost, thus benefiting the patients and the society.
