If you want to know more about your hearing health, or have questions about hearing aids, come along to our Open Day at Tracy James Hearing - Wharf Street, Newbury between 10 and 4 on the 26th of September.

Meet Audiologists Tracy and Louise and find out about our new facilities and services. Plus, experience product demonstrations from the manufacturers we partner with.

First and foremost, how long it takes to get used to hearing aids is individual and can take anything from two weeks to over a year. There are so many reasons for this, and in some ways, patience and a positive attitude will go far; but if the idea of it taking a while fills you with dread; there are some things you can do to make the process easier. 

As well as providing personalised hearing and ear care, experienced audiology specialists Tracy James and Louise Hart also have a sister company TJ Audiology where they provide training courses for health care professionals, audiologists, GPs and ENT consultants, to hearing aid dispensers, occupational health workers, and professionals working in the music and noise-protection industry.

Learn more about ear wax removal preparation, removal and after care. Never insert anything into the ear canal like cotton swabs or hair pins at any point before or after wax removal, this pushes the wax further down the ear canal and only makes it harder to remove.

Deaf Awareness Week takes place every year to increase public awareness about the issues affecting deaf people and deaf culture as a whole. Various events and activities are held over the course of Deaf Awareness Week for both educational and celebratory purposes.

Since the late 1970’s the use of Bone Conduction Hearing Devices (BCHD) have been a possible way to treat conductive hearing losses (CHL) i.e. where the sound struggles to conduct through either the middle and/or outer ear. Possible situations where this may happen is when someone has a malformed ear, chronic ear canal infections, a hearing loss due to a perforation or even a condition like otosclerosis (fusion of the bones in the middle ear).

In recent years Bone Anchored Hearing Aids (BAHA) have been used for conducive losses with good success rates in treating physical/mechanical hearing losses.

On Friday 12th April 2024 Tracy James Hearing were invited to the BEST IN BUSINESS AWARDS after being nominated, and then shortlisted, for the BEST CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE AWARD, organised by Newbury Weekly News

One in five children will suffer glue ear before the age of two years. Eight in ten children will have had glue ear at least once by the time they are ten years old (NICE guidance). For most of these children the glue ear will go away by itself, usually within three months. Unfortunately it can be very persistent in some children

Glue ear is a condition where fluid builds up behind the eardrum, and the Eustachian tube then becomes blocked as a result. The Eustachian tube is a tube that connects the ears to the back of the nose and throat.
