Sound familiar?

Most muffled hearing is just wax.

Muffled or blocked hearing
Often one ear, often overnight.
Fullness or pressure
That plugged feeling that will not pop.
Wax and hearing aids
Wax can block your aid or stop it sitting well. We clear the ear canal. Your audiologist looks after the aid.
Ringing from wax
Tinnitus caused by wax often settles quickly.

Your appointment

Three simple steps.

You stay sat up and in control. We can pause at any point.

1

We look first

A quick history, then a look in both ears under the microscope so we know exactly what we are dealing with.

2

Gentle suction

A small suction tip lifts the wax out. You feel light pressure and hear the suction as it works. No water at all.

Advice to keep it clear

Most people hear better straight away. We show you what helps stop it building up again.

Does it hurt?

No. You feel gentle pressure and hear the suction while it works. We pause whenever you like.

Do I need olive oil drops first?

Not essential. If your wax is very hard, a few days of drops beforehand can help. Skip them if you have a perforated eardrum.

What if I don’t have any wax?

If we look and your ears are clear, there is nothing more to pay. The £35 you paid when booking covers your assessment. We will tell you what we found and whether anything else needs checking.

Will I hear better straight away?

Most people do. After a long blockage it can take a few days to settle.

How often will I need it?

Some people every 6 to 12 months, others rarely. We will give you a rough idea on the day.
