Why isn’t hearing considered a priority, until it’s too hard to follow the conversation?

🗣️🤔

We treat vision changes with glasses. We book in for dental cleans. We monitor our blood pressure, weight, sleep, and more. But when it comes to hearing, too many people wait until the strain starts affecting their lifestyle and mental health.

Let’s change the story.

This isn’t about decline or deterioration, it’s about staying connected, sharp, and engaged in life.

Hearing health is health.

It’s time it got the same attention.

Stocking up on notebooks and highlighters?

Worrying you’re ‘losing your marbles’? 😶‍🌫️

You might be better off investing in a simple hearing test.

Your brain could be working overtime to fill in the gaps from unaddressed hearing loss — and that kind of strain shows up as fog, fatigue, and forgetfulness.

The best part is you *can* feel sharper, clearer, and more like yourself again.

We’re here to give your brain a break.

Too fiddly? Too annoying? Not anymore.

Modern hearing aids use AI to adapt, respond and learn from your lifestyle, so you can get on with living.

It’s nothing to be fearful of or worried that you’ll need to upskill!

If it’s been a while since you’ve looked at hearing aids, come and see what’s changed

🙌🏻

Does AI in hearing tech make you feel

Even if you’ve decided that people aren’t always worth listening to 🤣

Nature is calling.

The rustle of leaves, birdsong in the canopy, distant waves lapping — these are the sounds that help our brains slow down, recalibrate, and feel present.

It’s part of what researchers call *The Swedish Prescription* — time in nature as a tool to reduce stress, improve mood, sharpen cognition and even lower the risk of chronic disease.

When hearing is compromised, you’re not getting full access to these deeply grounding and healing properties.

If you’re ready for alllllll the feels, invest in your hearing today 🍃

With age comes wisdom, perspective, and stories — all the amazing stories that deserve an audience.

Hearing well isn’t just about volume. It’s about *belonging*.

When you’re part of the moment, part of the story, life doesn’t pass you by — it includes you.

Because being heard keeps you connected. And connection keeps you seen.

Change is inevitable — but your mindset decides the outcome.

If you’re avoiding noisy restaurants, missing bits of conversation, or second-guessing yourself — it’s time to decide.

Will you stay in the mindset of?
“I’m getting by...”

Or will you tell yourself?
“I deserve better”

Choosing the latter means you’re on a path to reclaim ease, connection, and confidence.⁠

Hearing loss isn’t about ageing — it’s about health. And health is how you enjoy the experience of life.⁠

The tools and support exist now, and they’re better than ever.⁠

Where’s your mindset at?

Learning from those who’ve walked the path before us is one of the greatest privileges of this work.

We’ve collected these common themes from our older clients and shared them with you in the hope they shift something — maybe even your definition of what it means to *really live*.

And if that happens to lead you to prioritise your hearing health…

We’ll be here, ready to welcome you.

Yes, there are a lot of Audiology clinics out there, but you might be surprised by the disparity.

Many of the clinics you see advertised—often linked to big-name retailers—are owned by hearing aid manufacturers. That means the advice you’re given might lean toward one brand or one way of doing things.

Independent Audiology is different. It means we’re not owned by a hearing aid brand. Our only loyalty is to *you*—your hearing, your goals, your life.

And here’s where this gets personal.

Cris, our founder, is 50-ish this year. He’s now walking alongside his own generation, and his parents’ generation, as they start to think deeply about quality of life—about staying sharp and connected at work and long into retirement.

It’s about taking agency, staying connected and living better ✨

That’s why Cris built a network of clinics where Audiologists are free to choose from the best technology across all brands, and tailor care without shortcuts or sales pressure.

Because hearing well isn’t a luxury, it’s part of how you live full bodied!

So yes, you can go anywhere. But when you’re ready to hear better, for real, make sure it’s with someone who sees the whole picture.

✨ Life will always have its highs and lows — but it shouldn’t be flat, dull or muffled.

If things are sounding faded, it might not be “just age” — it could be your ears asking for care. The good news?

With the right support, the soundtrack comes back.

We hate to say it, but your hearing aids are probably NOT what’s letting you down.

If you’ve invested in top-tier tech and you’re still saying, *“they don’t work”* — we hear this all

It’s the support (or lack of it) around them.

Here’s what actually makes hearing aids work:

🔸 A proper, personalised fitting — not a one-size-fits-all setup

🔸 Realistic expectations (aids help, but they don’t make you 20 again)

🔸 Follow-up care to adjust things as your brain adapts

🔸 Someone you trust to listen when it’s still not quite right

If you skipped any of that, or it was rushed, no wonder you’re frustrated.

You deserve more than expensive devices in a box.

You deserve expert care, tailored support, and a team that sticks with you.

If your hearing journey hasn’t gone to plan, we’re here for you.

We don’t care where you started — we only care that you’ve found the right support now.

You’ve built a life on detail. Precision. Seeing the solution 🔎

But without presence, connection and participation that solution isn’t as clear.

At Active Audiology we’ve consulted with lawyers who are missing too much in court. We’ve met teachers struggling to hear in their own classrooms.

And countless professionals who didn’t realise how much detail and confidence they were losing.

Because it’s about the finesse.
The nuance in a conversation, the rhythm in a meeting, the timing of a well-placed word.

It’s the subtlety in conversation and connection that makes you effective, relevant and unforgettable.

Staying sharp is the thread that holds the details — and your legacy — together ✂️

Our Story

Thank you for trusting us to be your chosen hearing experts. We know there are many other companies you could have considered. We are grateful for this opportunity to improve your hearing health.

When I founded Active Audiology in 2011, the need to be independent and ethical was a priority. An independent audiologist has the freedom to prescribe any hearing device that is best suited to your hearing needs. Unbiased brand choice and advice is only possible when a company is not controlled or owned by any hearing aid maker.

I sincerely believe that ethical and unbiased clinical expertise is essential to the integrity of our profession and for delivering the best service to you.

The right hearing solution also comes from years of experience and ongoing education. We pride ourselves on selecting clinicians that are not just academically outstanding, but are motivated to continue their ongoing education in hearing health research. We undergo regular training across the latest for all major brands so we can program every hearing device for optimal performance.
