Auditory Processing Disorder, Tinnitus & Decreased Sound Tolerance Testing in Ottawa

We take a holistic approach to Auditory Processing Disorder (APD) assessments. Our evaluations also include the screening of sensory and behavioural related factors that can affect how individuals process sound. We also collaborate with healthcare and educational professionals to ensure each patient receives well-rounded, practical support tailored to their listening and learning needs.

Our approach goes beyond a standard hearing test. Tinnitus and sound intolerance are often influenced by more than just the ears, and our assessment looks at the full picture. In addition to evaluating the auditory system, we also screen for sensory factors that may contribute to increased sound sensitivity. Because some tinnitus is affected by muscle and nerve input from other parts of the body, we also perform a physical examination of the jaw and neck to check for somatosensory tinnitus.
