Call (905) 857-5183 to book your complimentary hearing test ($60 value, Age 55+) The ears are just one small part of the hearing system. It is the brain that actually processes the sound that the ear receives. As we age, the filtering ability of the brain begins to diminish making it more difficult to hear in a background of noise and to understand when speech is spoken at a rapid rate or with an accent. Research at the University of Maryland has confirmed that seeing a person who is speaking helps the brain process words faster and more accurately. Three important strategies to assist people in hearing better are: Speak slower, speak clearly and face the listener. If you are having difficulty, book a hearing test. Hearing aids give your brain dramatic assistance in sorting out speech and makes listening less of a daily struggle. Book a hearing test and start the journey to better hearing. If you've forgotten what fair, professional service feels like, call us and prepare to be amazed! Satisfaction guaranteed!
