Hearing test

Can you hear but not understand speech?

Hearing loss is not just a communication problem, as hearing loss starts a chain of mutually reinforcing processes. Those with hearing problems often start to avoid social relationships, as impaired understanding makes it difficult to interpret what is said. Isolation is already a harmful factor in itself, as less slowly but surely leads to atrophy of the brain, the neural network. Interpreting speech keeps the brain in exercise, improves cognitive functions. In the absence of speech sounds, the structure of the brain will certainly be damaged in the long term.
Don't let your family relationships be lost, don't let the opportunity for quality, valuable, shared moments be lost!

Does tinnitus make your life miserable, or does it make you dizzy?

In many cases, tinnitus and dizziness are caused by central nervous system or peripheral pathologies, the first filter of which can be the recording of the hearing threshold. With the hearing test results, we can make recommendations on what tests may be needed.

In the case of small children, it is usually the parents who notice if there is a problem with their child's hearing.

The child asks questions repeatedly, the television is louder. In the vast majority of cases, middle ear processes or complications of upper respiratory tract infections are the cause. If recognized in time, serous and exudative processes accumulated in the middle ear, behind the eardrum, can now be treated and eliminated with medication or a simple procedure. If the problem is not detected and treated in time, a process may begin that causes constantly recurring complaints in the future, resulting in permanent hearing loss. The proper condition of the auditory system, intact hearing, is essential for normal speech development. The ear is the "entrance", and if it is closed or only half-open, information does not reach the brain or only partially does. Therefore, it is important that the ear functions properly. Simple tests can reveal which area of ​​the auditory system is affected and the appropriate steps can be taken to eliminate the underlying causes.
