Have you ever awoke after a night’s sleep and heard birds singing a beautiful song through your open window? Most people probably don’t even know that those bird songs are called the “dawn chorus”. Birds see the sunrise and, for some reason, decide it’s time to sing out their favorite melody. The songs of these […]
A car isn’t really an impulse purchase (unless you’re very, very rich). So a lot of research is most likely the first step you take. You take a good look at things like gas mileage, price point, and customer reviews. (You’re on Google a lot.) This amount of research makes sense! You’re about to drop […]
The world was extremely different millions of years ago. This steamy, volcano-laden landscape is where the long-necked Diplacusis wandered. Thanks to its really long neck and tail, Diplacusis was so big that it feared no predator. Actually, the long-necked dinosaur from the Jurassic Period is called Diplodocus. Diplacusis is a hearing affliction that causes you […]
Denial is a common first reaction. My loved one must be simply making it seem like their hearing loss is more severe than it really is. She’s too young to require a hearing aid. Maybe, the both of you have started to kid around with each other about it. She is always requesting that you […]
Summer is here! This summer season offers a lot of fun. But don’t forget about your hearing’s health before you head out for a day on the beach, a rocking concert, or maybe a great backyard barbecue.

When you shower, always remember to wash your ears. Whenever you say that, you unavoidably use your “parent voice”. Perhaps when you were a child you even remember your parents telling you to do it. As you get wrapped up in past nostalgia, that kind of memory can take you back to simpler times. But […]
Are you familiar with what a cyborg is? You likely imagine a half human, half machine when you think about cyborgs, especially if you love science fiction movies (these characters are usually cleverly used to comment on the human condition). Hollywood cyborgs can seem wildly bizarre. But the truth is that, technically, anyone who wears […]
You go above and beyond to ensure your hearing aids are well taken care of. When you go to bed, you always put them snuggly on the charger and you clean them every day. But you get pretty distressed when your hearing aids abruptly stop working the way they did once. There are a few […]
If you’re still wearing your older hearing aids, they might be better than no hearing aids, but they also could be costing you in some ways. Within the past few years, hearing aid technology has made significant developments. It’s changed to digital from analog, for one thing, and there are features currently that weren’t even […]
