10.01.2022 DO HEARING AIDS IMPROVE YOUR BRAIN? You have probably heard about neuroplasticity, the brain’s ability to change biologically when we learn something new. Hearing loss reduces exposure to sound. But if we amplify the sounds a person with hearing loss does not normally hear, does this make the brain biology change? The answer turns out to be yes of course. ... However, it takes time for the brain to learn to use the new sound information because important biological changes take time. The older the brain, the longer it takes to adapt. When you first use hearing aids, we normally set them at a low level and gradually increase the volume over 3 to 6 months to allow your brain to regrow. Hearing aids in themselves are never the answer. Hearing loss involves complex auditory and speech pathways in the brain. The process of acclimatizing to hearing aids takes time and requires a caring professional. We at Hearingworks will support you through your transition to hearing aids and your journey to better communication and fulfilling relationships.
