Taking care of your hearing is vital! We all want to live life to the fullest and that is why good ear & hearing health is important to people of all ages. There are many factors that can affect our ear health including age, the misuse of ear buds, constant exposure to very loud noises and of course the build up of wax. If our ear health is compromised then our ability to hear deteriorates, this often causes people to be socially withdrawn.

Being aware of your ear health will allow you to better manage your hearing. The following signs and symptoms could indicate that you have an ear or hearing problem:

• Loss of hearing
• earache
• discomfort
• discharge
• ears feeling full
• ringing and itching
• loss of balance, dizziness

Thanks to modern technology, TympaHealth treatments and procedures can help to quickly diagnose ear & hearing conditions. Infections as well as excessive & compacted wax can be identified & treated quickly & painlessly at any of our clinics in Cheltenham, Worcester or the West Midlands.

Our 30 minute appointments are held with one of our specialist clinicians will carry out the test. Once they have removed some wax the hearing screening will be performed. During the examination, high definition images and videos will be taken. This will identify any hearing issues and whether or not you may require further treatment from specialist doctors. In most cases however, the initial problem is simply the presence of excessive wax itself. If this is the case, a fast & painless procedure can be performed to clear the ear of any debris or built up wax. This procedure could immediately improve hearing capabilities.

All our clinicians have been trained by the award winning Tympa Health Academy accredited by ENT UK, The British Society of Audiology (BSA) and The British Society of Hearing Aid Audiologists (BSHAA).

Combined with the cutting edge Tympa technology and the highest clinical standards, we aim to provide the best treatment options and ear health care.

Ear wax removal is a common procedure aimed at eliminating excess earwax, medically known as cerumen, from the ear canal. Earwax serves a protective function by trapping dust and debris, preventing them from reaching the delicate structures of the inner ear. However, an overproduction of earwax or improper self-cleaning attempts can lead to blockages, causing symptoms like hearing loss, tinnitus, and dizziness. Medical professionals typically employ safe and effective methods for ear wax removal, such as irrigation using warm water, suction, or the use of specialized tools like curettes. It's essential to approach ear wax removal with caution to avoid pushing the wax deeper into the ear canal, potentially causing more significant issues. Seeking guidance from a healthcare professional ensures a proper and gentle approach to alleviate symptoms and maintain ear health.
