Your ability to hear is valuable – once you lose it, the likelihood of getting it back in its natural form is slim to nil. But strangely, the general public tends to neglect hearing loss. In fact, permanent hearing loss affects one in every eight individuals (about 30 million people) over the age of 12 […]
When you imagine hearing aids, intimacy probably isn’t the first thing you think about. We get it. These tiny devices are usually advertised in rather concrete terms. Less defined expressions like poetry, music, and art are more suited to the subject of love. But you may want to begin viewing your hearing aid as an […]
It’s often said that hearing loss is a slow-moving process. It can be rather subtle for this very reason. Your hearing gets worse not in giant leaps but by tiny steps. And that can make the progressive decline in your hearing hard to track, particularly if you aren’t watching for it. That’s why knowing the […]
Pain is your body’s means of giving you information. It’s an effective method though not a very pleasant one.

We all enjoy a good bargain. But when it comes to your health, be careful what you buy and pay attention to the little details. We know, it’s confusing, the names are very similar, but hearing aids and hearing amplifiers are not equivalent. And your general hearing and health could suffer severe repercussions if you […]
Even if you use glasses (the kind you put on your face, not the kind you drink out of), you still see your eye doctor annually, right? Because your eyes change as time passes. Similar to the rest of your body, your eyes aren’t static and neither are your ears. That’s why, even after you’ve […]
Over the past several decades the public perception of cannabinoids and marijuana has changed a lot. Many states now allow the use of marijuana, THC, or cannabinoid products for medicinal reasons.
