Hearing correction tests & Trial aids
If you are diagnosed with a hearing loss your audiologist will evaluate the benefit of hearing aids via a hearing correction test. This involves programming hearing aids to your individual prescription and assessing how well they can enhance your hearing.
​
If some instances your Audiologist may recommend a hearing aid trial. Trials normally last a week and give you the opportunity to experience first-hand the benefits of hearing aid amplification in the environments you love most.

Is ear wax normal?Ear wax is part of our body's natural immune system and should naturally work its way out of your ears. However, if earwax becomes impacted in the ear canal it may need to be professionally removed.

Is microsuction safe?Microsuction is considered the safest method of ear wax removal. It eliminates the use of water flushing seen in traditional syringing and, maintains the ears natural immune function.​ ​ A typical ear wax appointment is 15 - 30 minutes. Our ear wax microsuction procedure is performed by qualified ear-wax mirosuction clinicians trained to use ENT developed microsuction equipment.

What if my hearing levels do not improve after ear wax removal?If your hearing levels do not improve after ear wax removal at Echo Hearing, our clinicians may provide a complimentary hearing health check.
