Tinnitus Management
Tinnitus, or noises in the ears or head, is one of the most challenging audiological conditions that we manage. It is crucial to understand that tinnitus case is unique and requires a personalised treatment plan. The first step to treating tinnitus is to have the symptoms fully investigated. We specialise in the assessment and treatment of tinnitus.
Balance Testing
The ear not only allows us to hear, it is central in enabling our balance. The inner ear, which detects sound and passes it to the brain, is connected by fluid ducts to the balance organ, which continuously detects and delivers information about our position and movement. Some disorders of the ear will also be associated with disorders of balance.
We provide specialist balance assessment and treatment services, assisting in accurate diagnosis and treatment of individuals with dizziness, vertigo or imbalance. We are one of only two specialist sites in the Northern Territory that provides such services. In conjunction with a medical evaluation, once correct audiological diagnosis is complete, balance disorders can be effectively and efficiently treated.
Wax Management
Impacted or excess wax in the ear canals can cause significant temporary hearing loss, discomfort and compromise the performance of hearing aids for those who use them. We provide specialist deep-ear canal wax management and removal. Using state of the art microscopes and micro-suction techniques, the process is clean, painless and completely safe. We are one of only a handful of clinics to offer this service in the Territory.
