What is Treament

Hearing loss treatment

The same as your orthodontist, dentist, or physical therapist guiding you through your treatment and expecting you to follow it, we prescribe the treatment of your hearing loss and expect you to follow our recommendations.

You don’t just buy braces at the orthodontists’ office. The orthodontist uses the braces for the long-treatment of crooked teeth, overbites, spaces between teeth, the treatment of temporomandibular disorders (TMD) etc.

Just buying a set of hearing aids based on traditional pure-tone and speech in silence test is not a treatment.  It is called shopping. It won’t solve your problems with hearing loss.

Hearing loss is a physiological change in the whole auditory system:

• Hearing cells might be dead and make a dead zone
• Chemical fluid around hearing cells prompt changes
• Worn-out membranes in the cochlea
• Poor blood circulation and lack of oxygen can affect the fast movement of hearing cells
• An undeveloped cochlea doesn’t perform efficiently.
• A lost connection between hair cells and the nerves carrying information to the brain cause zero brain stimulation⁷

We determine whether or not you have any hearing loss, what type of hearing loss it is, the frequencies that are affected; and whatever hearing loss is in one or in both ears.

We will test to indicate how well speech is received or understood.

You need to go through auditory learning, hear a lot of new sounds, accept them and eventually your brain will learn how to separate consonants from noise. To get full benefits from your hearing aids, you must wear them all day, every day

While you go through the adaptation process, we will slowly increase the amount of gain until we reach the targets. It will help your brain slowly adapt to the loudness of the environment.

We will support and counsel you as long as you need, to achieve your goals.

We encourage you to tell us whether the hearing aid fitting is worthwhile for you, so we can continue to improve the results every day.
