OUR FAQS
If you are covered by the NHS, you may be able to get a hearing aid for free. There are also several other government and charity-funded incentives that may help pay for a hearing aid. We recommend you speak to your GP regarding this as they will be able to provide you with more information on the plans you are eligible for.
Yes, our hearing aid solutions can cater to people of any age whether they’re young, elderly, or anywhere in between.
Hearing Aids come in various different types, with the features present frequently playing a major part in how expensive the overall system might be. Generally, it’s tough to gauge the price of hearing aids without first having carried out the necessary hearing tests.
Whether hearing loss is reversible depends heavily on the cause behind it. Age-onset hearing loss is frequently permanent, while hearing loss due to illness or medication can frequently pass after a certain period of time. Using modern technology such as hearing aids, hearing loss can be combatted but we would normally do a thorough investigation on the severity and causes of the hearing loss before looking to implement this.
Hearing loss can be caused by:
Damage to the inner ear,
Build-up or blockage of earwax,
Ear infections, bone growths, or tumours,
Degradation or damage due to age,
Certain types of medications,
Continuous exposure to loud noise,
Singular exposure to very loud noise.
Microsuction is a modern ear wax removal technique making use of microscope technology to accurately remove blockages. This is far safer than alternatives such as ear syringing as it greatly reduces the chances of damage to the ear drum and canal as well as the chances of infection.
