A Loss of Hearing isn’t always Hearing Loss
Just because you can’t hear as well as you used to doesn’t necessarily mean that you are suffering from hearing loss – it could be ear wax, an ear canal infection, or a balance system or middle ear issue. We can identify and deal with all these conditions at Hearology.
And if you do have hearing loss, Hearology will help you identify the right kind of hearing aids for you – to fit with the needs of your hearing, your budget and your lifestyle.

The Positive Impact of Hearing Aid Usage on Dementia and Life Expectancy
Our brains behave like a muscle – if you stimulate them, they develop, if you don’t, they decline in effectiveness and vigour. So, it makes sense that mental decline associated with age and/or dementia will speed up if hearing loss deprives your brain of the auditory stimulation it is used to.
There is an ever-growing body of scientific research to suggest that the use of hearing aids can significantly DECREASE the rate of age-related cognitive decline. The same body of research also indicates that life expectancy itself can be improved by addressing hearing loss.
The three studies available for download here reveal that, amongst the sizeable research samples in question, after adjusting for demographic characteristics and other existing health risks:
- Whilst hearing aids do not halt or reverse cognitive decline, they do slow down its onset by a significant factor.
- Even mild hearing impairment is associated with an increased risk of mortality amongst adults aged 70 or older and this risk factor is a lot higher amongst those with severe hearing loss or who live alone.
“Providing hearing aids…much earlier in the course of hearing impairment may stem the worldwide rise of dementia.”

The Most Important Consideration
Make sure you know before you book a hearing test:
- That it will be carried out by an Audiologist, not a Hearing Aid Dispenser.
- That it will be a comprehensive diagnostic hearing test – not a superficial screening.
Unlike most of our competitors, Hearology does not employ Hearing Aid Dispensers, only Clinical Audiologists. And unlike nearly all of our competitors, we only carry out diagnostic hearing tests that include, amongst other things, a specific test to understand your ability to hear speech in noise.
