Hearing loss affects people of all ages.
48 million people have hearing loss but may not realize it. Hearing loss develops gradually. Many individuals don’t notice the signs until the condition has progressed beyond an easily treatable stage.
Hearing loss is a medical condition.
Always see an audiologist when it comes to your hearing health. Audiologists hold a master's or doctorate degree. They have the experience required to correctly assess hearing problems and recommend the appropriate course of action.
Hearing loss is connected to other health issues.
Most people do not realize that hearing is connected to overall health. Research has shown that cognitive health, depression, balance, tinnitus, diabetes and cardiovascular disease are impacted by hearing. This is why it is important to have your hearing checked regularly. Improved hearing leads to improved overall health!
Hearing health care is more than just hearing aids.
Audiologists are the experts in selecting and fitting hearing aids. They can also assist in connecting hearing aids to other technology - such as smartphones. Audiologists provide solutions for those with tinnitus (ringing in the ears) and balance issues. They can help protect your hearing by fitting hearing protection, such as custom earplugs or musician plugs.
