🎧 Where Technology and Compassion Meet 🎧

Hearing care is more than devices and settings.
It’s the care, patience, and partnership of an audiologist who understands how sound fits into your everyday life.

An audiologist doesn’t simply fine-tune technology.
They fine-tune comfort, confidence, and connection by taking the time to understand how sound behaves, how your ears respond, and how your brain interprets what you hear.

With the guidance of an audiologist, hearing care can support you to:
👂 Follow speech with greater ease
🎵 Experience sound that feels balanced and comfortable
💬 Feel more confident in conversations
⚖️ Reduce listening effort in busy or noisy environments

They help bridge the space between what a device can do and what you need it to do by blending science with empathy to support you through every stage of your hearing journey.

💡 When your world sounds clearer, calmer, and more familiar, it’s because technology was paired with thoughtful, human care.

🎧 Technology can amplify sound, but only care can help you understand it. 💙

At Estelle Novella Audiology, we believe that great hearing care isn’t about the newest device... it’s about the relationship that supports it.

We combine hearing technology with human connection:
🧠 Auditory training that helps your brain relearn clarity
💬 Counselling and education for you and your family
🔄 Ongoing follow-up to adapt as your needs change

Because even the smartest hearing aid is only as effective as the care behind it.

💡 Hearing well is not just about devices, it’s about understanding, confidence, and connection.

Healthy ageing isn’t only about exercise, medication, or nutrition.
It’s also about caring for the senses that keep you connected to the world around you.

Your hearing and balance quietly shape your independence every single day:
👂 They help you stay present in conversations and moments of joy.
⚖️ They support steadiness, confidence, and safety as you move through life.
💬 They allow you to stay engaged with family, friends, and the world you love.

When your sensory health is supported, daily life feels lighter and more manageable, from keeping up with grandchildren to enjoying a peaceful walk outside.

💡 This year, make hearing part of your wellbeing plan. Because ageing well isn’t just about adding years… it’s about adding clarity, confidence, and connection.

💭 “Once I get hearing aids, my hearing will be normal again.”

✅ Fact: Hearing aids give you access to sound, but your brain is what gives that sound meaning.

When you first start wearing hearing aids, everyday noises can feel too sharp, too loud, or simply unfamiliar.
That’s completely normal.
Your brain is adapting and learning how to interpret sound again.

This is where ongoing auditory training and support from an independent audiologist become essential.
With time, guidance, and consistent use, listening becomes clearer, conversations feel easier, and connection grows more comfortable.

🎯 Technology starts the process.
Auditory training helps your brain make sense of sound.

🧠🎧 The Brain’s Most Important Workout 🎧🧠

We train our bodies to stay strong, but how often do we train our brains to listen? 💪

Hearing aids bring sound back into your world, but your brain needs time and guided practice to recognize, interpret, and trust those sounds again.
That’s where auditory training plays an important role; helping your brain adapt and make sense of sound more comfortably over time.

Here’s how auditory training supports your hearing journey:
🎯 Targeted listening exercises to practise distinguishing words, tones, and speech in noise
🧩 Memory and focus activities that strengthen the skills needed to follow conversations
👂 Real-life listening practice, guided by your audiologist, to support understanding in everyday environments

Auditory training helps reduce listening effort and build confidence.
It’s not about louder sound, it’s about clearer understanding, sharper focus, and feeling more at ease in connection.

📞 Start your year strong. Book a session with our for and give your brain the kind of workout that supports everyday life.

👂 How’s Your Hearing This Year? 👂

As the year settles in, it’s the perfect time for a quick self-check not just on your goals, but on your hearing. 🌿

Ask yourself:
💬 Do conversations feel a little more effortful than before?
🎶 Do voices seem softer, or background noise more distracting?
📺 Do you turn up the TV or radio a little higher than others prefer?

If you nodded “yes” to any of these, your ears (and brain) might be asking for a little extra care.

Early hearing assessments and auditory training help you stay sharp, confident, and connected... so you don’t miss a single moment that matters this year.

📞 Start fresh. Book a hearing test with our for because better hearing starts with awareness.

24 Sept 🔥 Heritage Day! Hear the Heartbeat of Home 🔥

Heritage Day is more than boerewors on the grill, it’s the sound of the braai sizzling, the echo of laughter, and the stories passed from one generation to the next.

It’s the music playing in the background, the clinking of plates, and the voices of family and friends woven into the fabric of who we are. 🥩🎶

We believe these moments are priceless and hearing them clearly is what keeps us truly connected to our heritage.

This Heritage Day, let’s celebrate togetherness, tradition, and the sounds that make South Africa home.
