About The Audiology Method
The Method
Hearing connects us to the world and to one another. Not hearing well triggers a feeling of disconnect and isolation. Social situations that once were fun bring dread and are exhausting. In addition to improving your hearing, we empower you to restore your sense of wholeness and youthfulness.
Hearing is the only one of our senses that is on 24 hours a day. Your lifestyle take center stage in a conversation about your communication goals. We take the time to listen to your concerns and to understand your health history. Did you know hearing loss is not a natural part of the aging process? You may not be aware that high blood pressure, diabetes, and chemotherapy can influence your ability to hear well. We are committed to finding the true source of your hearing changes.
In addition to a thorough evaluation, we follow best practices and screen for balance issues, tinnitus, and depression. We offer solutions that enhance your ability to engage in life again, on your terms.
The majority of people with changes in their hearing are under the age of 65. For some, those changes start as early as adolescence. Years of listening to loud music or operating noisy equipment without protection, common health conditions, and genetics can all impact the ability to hear.
If you’re hearing differently than you used to, come in for an evaluation. Be proactive now to prevent additional loss later. Learning to hear better is a team effort, and support is part of the journey. We connect you with peers who are experiencing similar challenges, and of course we’re with you every step of the way.
There’s a good chance you never had any role models of what good hearing hygiene looks like while you were growing up. Your parents probably saw their dentists regularly but never saw their audiologists. Your parents probably wore sunglasses while in the sun but did not wear earplugs while around loud noises. We get that hearing health is probably new to you. That is why we are committed to education and celebrating you no matter where you are on your hearing journey.
