Hearing Consultants

This month we are focusing on Auditory Processing Disorder. At Hearing Consultants, we deeply appreciate the sacrifices made by our veterans. Many of our brave servicemen and women face unique challenges, including Auditory Processing Disorder (APD).

APD affects how the brain processes sounds, making it difficult to understand speech, especially in noisy environments. This condition can be particularly challenging for veterans, impacting their communication and daily life.

If you or a loved one is experiencing symptoms of APD, our team is here to help. We offer specialized assessments and personalized treatment plans to improve auditory processing and enhance quality of life.

Let’s support our veterans by spreading awareness and ensuring they receive the care they deserve. Contact us today to learn more about our services.

Humanitarian audiology is making a BIG difference around the world! From screening athletes to fitting hearing aids, audiologists are dedicated to improving lives. 🌟

For instance, Pacific Hearing Service has helped people in need, like a young boy in Guatemala with mixed hearing loss. And the Global Hearing Health Coordination Center (GHHCC) works with local partners to fit hearing aids and offer crucial services. 🌏💙

The American Academy of Audiology also honors those who make a difference, like screening athletes at the Special Olympics. And right here, our local Lions Club collects and refurbishes used hearing devices to help those in need. How amazing is that? 🦁👏

Let’s celebrate these efforts and continue supporting humanitarian audiology! 💪💖

Are you ready for these sounds of summer? There is no doubt you have been enjoying some of these sounds already, but we still feel it necessary to mention. Feel free to enjoy everything you can this year, but don’t forget that some summer sounds can be really loud. Things like fireworks, outdoor concerts, car races, and even your own backyard lawnmower can easily damage your hearing if you don’t take some precautions. But that doesn’t mean you have to miss out. Just remember to grab your towel, sunscreen, and to protect your hearing!

Check out some of the summer sounds that can put you and your loved ones at risk for hearing loss.

Fireworks

We all love fireworks, and you can see displays starting around Memorial Day all the way through Labor Day. We also know they’re noisy, but did you know that the average fireworks display can get as loud as 125 decibels (dB) – which is as loud as a jet taking off. These noise levels are unsafe for anyone, but particularly for young children and infants. When bringing little ones to see fireworks, ensure they have ear protection and that they’re viewing from about half a football field away. Adults should also wear earplugs.

Concerts and sporting events

Outdoor music festivals, baseball games, and concerts are other crowd-friendly summer events. However, these venues can sometimes be even louder than indoor venues because of more people and higher noise levels. At any of these types of events, sound and noise levels can reach 100 dB – comparable to listening to your headphones with the volume turned all the way up. Again, this can be detrimental to your hearing health. Pack appropriate hearing protection for the whole family.

Parades and fairs

Another summer and small-town staple, parades and fairs don’t shy away from loud noises either – marching bands, music and rides, sirens, and loud cars or motorcycles. Parades and carnivals are fun and family-friendly, but small children and infants will need hearing protection. Earplugs are recommended for adults, better safe than sorry.

Cars, motorcycles, and boats

Getting out on the open road or water is another great and relaxing way to spend a summer day. Did you know engine noise can be loud enough to damage your hearing? Whether you’re riding in a convertible, boat, or out on your motorcycle, noise levels can reach 125 dB – like we said earlier, as loud as a commercial jet. Be sure to be mindful of your sound exposure while using these vehicles.

And if you aren't sure? Better safe than regret it later! Cover those ears!

With June being and we are coming at you with some regarding hearing aid use, dementia and mental health! Check this fact out!

Next to pain, itching is probably the most uncomfortable physical sensation. It is annoying, distracting, and in some cases, absolutely maddening.

When that itching occurs in a place you can’t reach, it can be difficult to find relief, and your ear canals are the most common place unreachable itching occurs. But don’t start scratching — your ear canal and eardrum are easily damaged by foreign objects.

Fortunately, most causes of deep ear itching are understood, and there are things you can do to alleviate or even prevent it. Find out more in our most recent blog post on our website:
