Benefits of treatment
Why it is important to treat hearing loss
Hearing loss can affect your brain, your emotions, and your lifestyle. Fortunately, proper treatment can help your brain hear more naturally, helping you live the life you want.
Individuals who have hearing loss are treated by wearing hearing aids. The benefits of wearing hearing aids include
- Better relationships with family members
- Better feelings about themselves
- Improved mental health
- Greater independence and security
- Significant improvements in the quality of their lives
Studies show hearing impaired people who do not wear hearing instruments are more likely to experience depression, anxiety, paranoia and emotional sickness, compared to people who wear hearing instruments.
Empower yourself
Keep active
Good hearing helps you communicate and makes it easier to participate in healthy physical activities like team sports.
Stay engaged
Your hearing helps you meet new people and pursue new experiences that keep you mentally and socially active in the world.
Feel energised
Hearing well lets you feel at ease while listening because your brain uses less energy on understanding and guessing what people say – preserving more for what you feel like focusing on.
Do you find it hard to hear speech in noisy environments?
Hearing in noise is one of the biggest challenges for people with hearing loss. It often leaves people feeling tired and disconnected.
Get a test performed by a hearing care professional. They can find out whether you have hearing loss or not. If you do, they can measure how much hearing loss you have in each ear, at which frequencies, and of which type. Then they can fit hearing aids to your unique hearing needs.
Hearing health is brain health
Your ears collect sound, but it’s your brain that makes sense of sound. Good hearing can help your brain stay fit throughout your life – which can have a positive impact on your overall health.
Help your brain to hear
If you have hearing loss, your brain must spend more energy to make sense of sound. It also has an incomplete sound picture, so it uses more energy on filling in the blanks by guessing what people say. This means it has less energy left to remember, and less resources for other mental processes. You become more tired by normal situations and conversations.
Giving your brain the full sound picture it needs to work naturally makes it easier and less tiring to focus on the sounds you want to pay attention to.
