ABOUT EAR SUCTION;
Blocked ears can be very frustrating and can be caused by a range of issues, not just wax build up.
We have two qualified ear suction Registered Nurses available to visually inspect your ears and guide you on the best course of action for your individual circumstances.
If wax build up is the issue, micro suction will be used, along with any required ear tools to gently remove the wax.
We will also provide you guidance in after care treatment and prevention.
Ear camera available to use during appointment if necessary.

WORKSTATION ERGONOMIC ASSESSMENTS
Incorrectly set-up workstations can cause a lot more damage than good- it can increase health related risks.
Workstation Assessments can improve productivity, overall wellness, as well as reduce absences.
We offer full workstation ergonomic assessments with a complimentary report, action plan and handy tips/guides that will be provided following each assessment.
Each assessment takes roughly 20 minutes and is vital for wellbeing of staff. We have two qualified assessors available.
Contact us on jo@loophs.co.nz or admin@loophs.co.nz to book your workstation assessment today!
NOISE ASSESSMENTS
Exposure to loud noises within the workplace can have a great affect on hearing. It is a legal duty required by employers to ensure that workers aren't exposed to unsafe noise levels.
Jarrod completed his noise assessment competency requirements in 2017.
We offer preliminary noise assessments, and full detailed noise assessments.
These assessments include testing hearing protection, recommendations on noise reduction and controls, workplace/worker exposure, as well as workplace designs to minimise/reduce noise.
You will receive a report at the end of our findings, recommendations on noise reduction controls, and workplace design to minimise and reduce noise levels at the source.
If you have any questions, or would like to organise a noise assessment, flick us a message!
