Individuals with a hearing loss are at an increased risk for developing cognitive decline and dementia. While your risk increases with the degree of hearing loss, it is important to note that even mild hearing loss can put you at a greater risk by as much as 200%.

Today’s leading treatment options for restoring hearing can help to slow down or prevent the development of dementia, but in order to take advantage of them, we need to identify the type and severity of hearing loss you’re experiencing through a comprehensive hearing assessment.

Analysis by the American Association of Audiology of the responses to a National Council of Aging survey more than 20 years ago demonstrated that senior adults with an untreated hearing loss were far more likely to express feelings of depression, anxiety, and paranoia and avoid social activities. In contrast, those who used hearing aids, which were far less advanced at the beginning of the 21st century than they are today, were less likely to be affected in the same way.

Imagine the results to the same survey if the same respondents had access to today’s advanced hearing aid technology, which has the power to enhance voice and sound clarity while allowing you to connect your hearing device to other digital devices such as your smartphone, television, or PC.

We also work to prevent noise-induced hearing loss through custom hearing protection for riders, rockers, shooters, and everyone in between.

Those with severe hearing and communication challenges can often benefit from the advanced technology cochlear implants you will have access to through South Bay Hearing.

Tinnitus is a medical condition characterized by ongoing ringing, whistling, hissing, buzzing, or pulsing sounds produced by your brain. It makes it difficult to concentrate and threatens to reduce your quality of life. Although most of the estimated 50 million Americans who experience tinnitus only experience it once in a while, many individuals struggle with it 24/7.

There is hope for San Clemente residents who experience the stress, anxiety, loss of sleep, and focus issues due to chronic tinnitus. The team members at South Bay are experts when it comes to helping you manage your tinnitus so you can get some relief.

Because we are passionate about making certain that all residents of the South Bay experience all of the life enhancing benefits of professional hearing care, we take extra steps to meet every hearing-related need with additional services such as hearing aid maintenance and repair, aural rehabilitation, earwax management, and more.

Those in San Clemente who need hearing care attention but aren’t able to attend an in-office appointment for health, scheduling, travel, or other reasons can also take advantage of our tele-health consultations.
