The first step in hearing health.
Hearing loss is a decrease in sensitivity to sounds that are usually easy to hear. Hearing loss is the cause. The result, however, is an impaired ability to communicate and live life to the full - which can leave one feeling frustrated and socially isolated.
Is your hearing changing?
Hearing loss can affect anyone, at any age. It’s usually caused by one of three things: natural ageing, long-term exposure to loud noise, or a congenital condition. Sometimes, it may be linked to an underlying medical issue that needs investigation. Because hearing loss tends to happen gradually, it’s not always easy to notice when it begins.
At The Well Being BY CUBEX, we offer expert diagnosis and tailored hearing care designed around you. If you’ve noticed any of the signs below, we recommend starting with our online hearing test — a simple first step you can take in your own time and space.
Consider the following:
People often sound like they’re mumbling or speaking too softly.
You’re told your audio volume is too high, or others need to repeat themselves.
Conversations in noisy places feel exhausting, so you tend to avoid them.
It’s difficult to hear someone from another room unless they raise their voice.
Phone calls are frustrating, so you avoid making or taking them.
You miss the doorbell or phone ringing.
It’s hard to tell where sounds are coming from.
Why early action matters.
Over 7.5 million people in the UK suffer from hearing loss and, on average, people with hearing loss wait almost ten years before doing something about it.
Hearing loss can significantly impact your overall health and wellbeing. If you suspect any changes in your hearing, it’s important to act quickly — the sooner you do, the sooner your quality of life can improve.
Our brains, like computers, have limited processing capacity. When too much energy is spent trying to hear, it leaves less for memory, focus, and conversation. This cognitive strain can lead to social withdrawal and even depression.
At The Well Being BY CUBEX, we combine deep expertise with highly personalised care to diagnose and treat all types of hearing loss — so you can stay connected, sharp, and well.
