  2. 08 8362 6099 • Hearing loss has been a common medical condition, especially among the elderly. • While the advances in auditory technology has introduced a wide array of hearing aids including the likes of Starkey, Phonak, GN Resound and Oticon hearing aids, many people out there are still concerned about hearing loss and uncertain the use of hearing aids. https://hearingaidspecialists.wordpress.com/2016/01/19/breaking-free-from-common-myths-about-hearing-aids/

  3. 08 8362 6099 • The fear and uncertainty with regard to the look and feel different types of hearing devices offer, prevent people with hearing impairment or loss from getting the right treatment for their condition. • Considering that, we have highlighted three of the most common myths and stereotypes that mislead people, particularly first-time users, who may benefit from hearing aids. https://hearingaidspecialists.wordpress.com/2016/01/19/breaking-free-from-common-myths-about-hearing-aids/

  4. 08 8362 6099 Myth#1: I don’t need two hearing aids • For those having hearing loss in both ears, it’s recommended to wear a pair hearing aids. Using two hearing aids would help localise sounds and assist in noisy environments. https://hearingaidspecialists.wordpress.com/2016/01/19/breaking-free-from-common-myths-about-hearing-aids/

  5. 08 8362 6099 Myth#2: Hearing aids are only for the elderly • Contrary to the most widely held stereotype, the use of hearing aids is not limited to the older population. Hearing loss affects people of all ages. While in some it’s present at birth, others acquire it with ageing. No matter the age, there are hearing aids available in varied styles and equipped with unique features to suit every individual’s hearing needs. https://hearingaidspecialists.wordpress.com/2016/01/19/breaking-free-from-common-myths-about-hearing-aids/

  6. 08 8362 6099 Myth#3: My hearing loss is not bad enough to get a hearing aid • Most people with a mild or moderate hearing impairment/loss don’t seek any kind of hearing treatment considering the extent of their condition. However, it is important for all individuals with mild to severe to profound hearing impairment to seek immediate treatment in order to avoid further worsening of their condition. https://hearingaidspecialists.wordpress.com/2016/01/19/breaking-free-from-common-myths-about-hearing-aids/

  7. 08 8362 6099 In addition to the above mentioned myths, it’s always a good idea to consult with a certified audiologist who can perform a comprehensive screening and evaluation to assess your hearing and find a treatment that best suits your needs. https://hearingaidspecialists.wordpress.com/2016/01/19/breaking-free-from-common-myths-about-hearing-aids/
