Hearing loss can happen at any age, with most people gradually losing their hearing. In people over 60, about half have hearing problems or already suffer some degree of hearing loss. The quality of one’s hearing can seriously affect one’s everyday life. If you really have a hearing loss, it can be very frustrating not being able to hear conversations or interact with friends and family members. Audição Activa offers its clients expert advice throughout the whole process, starting with a free evaluation, advising on the best hearing aid for you, with discounts and special offers.

The Barbearia Ópera, formerly Salão Ópera, owes its name to Rossini’s opera “The Barber of Seville”, as a tribute. Founded in 1962, its first employee was António Emílio de Magalhães. Two years later, the initial society was broken up and the property was definitively transferred to the Magalhães family. In 1986, he left the space to his brother and immigrated to France. He then returns and takes over the space again until, in 2010, with 65 years of experience, he passes the art to his son José de Magalhães, who already had ten years of experience and is the current owner of the space. It is a space where we can count on traditional Portuguese barbershop, with both acquired knowledge and experience.

The Farmácia Vitália is located in the Palácio das Cardosas, former Convent of Lóios or Santo Elói, in the middle of the Praça da Liberdade. It was classified as a “Public Interest Set”, thanks to its façade designed, in 1932, by the architect Manuel Marques e Amoroso Lopes. It is a work in glass and iron with geometric lines, resulting in a deeply modern and contemporary intervention in a historical building, with an austere and sober character, such as that of the Palácio das Cardosas, which also integrates the Intercontinental Hotel. Throughout its history, Farmácia Vitália has been noted for the manufacture, distribution and representation of pharmaceutical specialties at a national level – aspects it still maintains.
