How we write our guides

Health information has to be right. This is how we make sure ours is.

Sources we use

Every fact in our guides comes from a source we can link to: national health services such as the NHS, professional bodies such as the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA), leading clinics such as Cleveland Clinic, patient organisations, and peer-reviewed research. Each guide lists its sources at the bottom.

How we write

  • We write in plain language and explain medical terms.
  • We say how strong the evidence is. When research is limited or experts disagree, we say so.
  • We do not promise cures or quick results.
  • We point out when something needs a doctor, such as ear pain, sudden hearing loss or dizziness.
  • Our guides are information, not personal medical advice.

Checking and updating

Each guide shows the date it was last updated. We review guides when new guidance or research is published. Clinical review by a qualified audiologist or psychologist will be added and named on each guide as our team grows.

Spotted a mistake?

We want to hear about it. Send us a note through the contact form and we will look into it.

Independence

Our guides do not contain advertising or paid placements. Where we mention Attune's own programme, we make that clear.

Coming soon

Attune is almost ready.

Leave your email and we'll let you know when the programme opens, so you can be one of the first to start.

We only use your email to tell you when Attune launches.

Get in touch.

A question, an idea, or something we got wrong? We'll reply by email.

We can't give personal medical advice by message. If you have ear pain, sudden hearing changes or dizziness, please see a doctor.
