Is it a problem if water gets in your ear? 💧👂

It’s actually pretty common and usually nothing to worry about.

But if water gets trapped, it can feel uncomfortable and sometimes lead to an infection.

Here’s how to help it drain safely:
✔️ Tilt your head and gently tug your earlobe
✔️ Use a hair dryer on a low, cool setting (from a safe distance!)
❌ Skip the cotton swabs — they can push water in deeper

Ever had water stuck in your ear? What worked for you or didn’t?

Your brain turns sound into meaning

It’s pure magic and science!

✨ Sound waves enter your ear.
✨ Your inner ear (like the incredible cochlea!) transforms vibrations into electrical signals.
✨ Those signals travel via your auditory nerve straight to your brain and suddenly, you’re hearing laughter, music, and voices that matter.

It’s a tiny, high-tech symphony happening every second. Let’s make sure your hearing system is in tune.

📅 Book your hearing test today!

🔇 Turn down background noise
🧘‍♂️ Pick a quieter spot when you can

Small changes = big difference. And if things still feel muffled? A hearing check is the best next step.

July is National Ice Cream Month! 🍦

While our southern neighbours made it official in 1984, Canadians have fully embraced the excuse to cool down with a scoop (or two) during our beautiful, short-lived summer.

: While vanilla still tops the charts, maple walnut and tiger tail are uniquely Canadian favourites. And yes, Tiger tail, that orange licorice swirl is a nostalgic classic for many!

So whether you’re lakeside at the cottage, catching fireworks, or relaxing in the city, treat yourself to a little frozen joy this July. You deserve it.

🍨 Drop your favourite ice cream flavour in the comments. Bonus points if it's one you can only find here!
