Out of this world meeting with Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield.🚀

After yesterday’s rocket launch, it’s a great reminder that whether you’re in a spacecraft or at a family gathering, communication is everything.

Fun fact: because sound can’t travel in space, astronauts rely on advanced communication systems that use electromagnetic waves.

Helping people hear their best in our clinic might not get us to the moon, but it does help keep us connected here on Earth. 🌎✨

Repeated exposure to loud sounds can harm the delicate hair cells in your inner ear, leading to issues like noise-induced hearing loss and even tinnitus.

If music doesn’t sound as loud as it used to, that’s not tolerance—it could be early hearing damage.

Here's a couple simple ways to protect your hearing:
• Keep volume below 60%
• Take listening breaks

👂 Your hearing is for life—don’t turn it down permanently.

Not all ringing in the ears comes from the brain or inner ear.
Sometimes, it’s linked to a tiny middle ear muscle: the tensor tympani.

The muscle may become overactive due to stress, anxiety, or heightened sound sensitivity—almost like your ear is “overprotecting” itself.

Because it’s mechanical (muscle-based), it may respond to Relaxation Techniques and/or Sound Therapy.

This type of tinnitus is different from the classic ringing tinnitus linked to the inner ear or nerve-related issues.

Why Treating Hearing Loss Early Matters

When you don’t hear well, it’s not just your ears missing out—your brain is too.

Your auditory system relies on regular stimulation. When fewer sounds reach the brain, those neural pathways become weaker, just like a muscle you don’t use.

And as a result, the brain becomes less efficient at interpreting speech.

Even if something is loud enough, you may still struggle with clarity.
That’s because hearing loss often affects the brain’s processing abilities, not just volume.

Using hearing aids or getting proper care early keeps the brain actively engaged with sound.
This maintains strong pathways for:
✔️ Speech understanding
✔️ Sound localization
✔️ Cognitive function

Treating hearing loss early helps protect your brain health, not just your ears.
The sooner sound is restored, the easier it is for the brain to keep those pathways working.

Need a reminder on how to change the wax filters on your hearing aids? Watch the video below to help refresh your memory!

https://youtu.be/d9qlpZd0NlQ

Wax guards (wax filters) sit at the end of the receiver and protect your hearing aids from earwax and debris. If a wax guard becomes blocked with wax, you may notice reduced, distorted, or no sound. Replacing it regularly helps restore sound quality and prevent damage to the hearing aid.

👂 Hearing aid brands that commonly use CeruStop wax guards:

Phonak, Unitron, Oticon, ReSound, Widex, Signia / Siemens

⚠️ Not all hearing aid models use CeruStop. If you’re unsure which wax guard your device uses, contact your audiologist before changing it.

🔧 Helpful tips:

-Always use the correct wax guard
-Do not reuse old filters
-If sound does not return after changing the filter,
contact your hearing clinic or book an appointment online: www.lakehuronaudiology.com
