While it may be true that older hearing aids are better than no hearing aids, it’s likely that what little advantage you get from them comes at a cost. Hearing aid technology has progressed a great deal in the past few years! Ten years ago many of the features of modern hearing aids weren’t even […]
Hearing loss is a common condition that can be alleviated easily by using hearing aids and assistive listening devices. But hearing loss is often ignored and untreated. For individuals with hearing loss, this can bring about feelings of social-separation and depression. It can also cause a breakdown in personal and work relationships, which itself contributes […]
Back in the old days they were called “books-on-tape”. Back then, of course, we didn’t even have CDs never mind streaming services. Nowadays, people refer to them as audiobooks (which, to be honest, is a far better name). An audiobook allows you to read a book by, well, listening to it. It’s sort of like […]
Do you recall the old tale about Johnny Appleseed? In elementary school, you may have been taught that he migrated across the US, bringing the gift of nourishing apples to every community he paid a visit to (the moral of the story is that apples are healthy, and you should eat them).

Aliens aren’t behind the history of hearing aids. But the true story is probably pretty strange too. After all, […]
As we get older, we all know that hearing loss and specific mental health concerns can get worse in spite of a healthy, active lifestyle. And a strong link between the two has been discovered by scientists which should never be dismissed. So don’t turn off that hearing aid. Individuals with neglected hearing loss are […]
We’ve all had that itch that seemed impossible to scratch. Okay, there are two ways to think about it: First, you consider something you always wanted to do with your life but so far you haven’t got around to (skydiving, for instance).
