Taking a hearing test – What actually happens?
A hearing test is the most important step to assess your hearing and detect any potential hearing loss at an early stage. Viele Menschen merken erst spät, dass ihr Hörvermögen nachlässt, da sich der Hörverlust oft schleichend entwickelt. Regular hearing tests with a hearing care specialist help detect changes early and ensure you find the right hearing solutions in time.
What is the procedure for a hearing test?
A hearing test with us is quick, straightforward, and completely painless. Our hearing care specialists take the time to conduct a precise analysis of your hearing The process consists of three steps:
Individual Hearing Consultation
We start with a personal conversation about your hearing situation. Do you have difficulty following conversations in noisy environments? Do you have difficulty perceiving high or low frequencies? Through targeted questions, we can better assess your hearing behavior and tailor the test to your individual needs.Hearing test & evaluation
- Pure Tone Hearing Test: We check which frequencies and volumes you can still hear well. We test at what level you start to perceive quiet sounds and when loud sounds begin to feel uncomfortable.
- Speech test: Here, we measure how well you understand speech at different noise levels. This allows us to determine whether hearing aid fitting makes sense.
- Middle ear examination: If necessary, we also check the function of the middle ear to identify any impairments such as conductive hearing loss.
Evaluation & Individual Solutions
After the hearing analysis, we discuss the results together. If a hearing loss is detected, we advise you on suitable hearing systems and hearing aid technologies that can improve your hearing.
Why a hearing test is so important
Many people unconsciously get used to a gradually progressing hearing loss. This can not only make communication more difficult, but also negatively affect quality of life and brain activity. Studies show that untreated hearing loss can increase the risk of cognitive impairments.
A regular hearing test is therefore crucial to:
- Detect hearing loss early and counteract it.
- To enjoy conversations and everyday situations in a relaxed manner again.
- Find the best solution for your individual hearing needs.
