Additional Hearing Products

treating hear lossMany people are under the impression that Presbycusis, or hearing loss that is caused by the natural aging process is the most common way people lose their hearing. However, hearing loss that is caused by exposure to loud sounds over a long period of time (noise-induced hearing loss or NIHL) is now the most common way peole lose their hearing.

Exposure to noises over 85 decibels damage the hair cells in your inner ear, leading to hearing damage. NIHL is cumulative and it is permanent. Fortunately, with the help of certain products, you can prevent it.

At Harbor Audiology and Hearing Services, we don’t just treat hearing loss, we want to help you prevent it! We offer many options for custom hearing protection to help you preserve your hearing.
