Hear for yourself!
Is good hearing something we take for granted?
Are you aware of your hearing loss? You may be surprised when friends and family suggest that you have a hearing problem. Today, one in every ten Americans has a hearing loss. You are not alone. An invisible disability, hearing loss usually comes on gradually, and can cause frustration and stress for you, and the people you are interacting with on a daily basis.
Studies have linked untreated hearing loss to reduced alertness, stress and fatigue, which increase the risk of personal safety. Research from Johns Hopkins University states that hearing loss is now related to both Alzheimer’s disease and dementia. Your ears and brain need to be stimulated again or Auditory Deprivation (a decrease in the ear/brain ability to understand speech clearly) occurs.
No one chooses to have a hearing loss, but doing something about it is your choice
What puts you at risk for hearing loss?
- Noise exposure (recreational or occupational)
- Diabetics and/or smokers: twice as likely to have a hearing loss
- People over the age of 60
- Cardiovascular disease is strongly linked to hearing loss (Better Hearing Institute)
- Genetics – hearing loss runs in the family
Better hearing is not a commodity. It is an art, guided by technology, and delivered with experience.
Hearing loss is often as unique as a fingerprint. Advancements in digital science technology, gives the Hearing Professional the flexibility to customize hearing instruments to a persons particular needs.
You hear with your ears, but understand with your brain. Counseling and follow-up visits are a big part of a person’s success and positive experience with hearing aids. Hofstra Family Hearing will guide you through the process, because our goal is for you to use Hearing Aids successfully.
