🌟 Which Sounds Would You Miss the Most? 🌟
Hearing loss and tinnitus can sneak up on you. One day, it's just a faint ringing… and suddenly, it’s the absence of sound that stands out.
💭 Imagine a day without enjoying:
👶 A child’s laughter
🎶 Your favorite song
🌧️ The calming sound of rain
🐦 Birds chirping in the morning
❤️ A whispered “I love you”
These moments are more than just sounds — they’re memories in the making.
🦻 At Salus, we help people reconnect with the sounds that make life rich and full. If you're struggling with tinnitus or noticing changes in your hearing, don’t wait.

🍹 Sipping on Summer? It Might Be Ringing in More Than Fun.
Did you know that your favorite summer cocktails could be worsening your tinnitus?
Alcohol can affect blood flow and nerve health, both critical when it comes to managing those persistent ringing or buzzing sounds in your ears. While an occasional drink is okay for many, overindulging in warm-weather cocktails might make your symptoms spike.
🌞 Stay refreshed and ear-aware this summer.
✅ Hydrate.
✅ Limit alcohol.
✅ Listen to your body — and your ears.

😅 True story from the clinic this week:
One of our own team members came in saying,
“My ear feels blocked — like I’m underwater.”
Even hearing pros get buildup sometimes!
✅ The good news? A quick, gentle cleaning fixed it.
✅ The better news? No permanent damage or infection.
👂 If your ear feels:
• Plugged or full
• Like sound is muffled
• Like you can hear your own voice echo...
..it might not be hearing loss — it could be wax.

🌞 Summer is for fun — not ringing ears.
If your tinnitus seems louder during the summer, you're not imagining it. Heat, stress, travel, and even dehydration can make symptoms worse.
Here are 4 summer-smart tips to help:
👒 Stay cool – Overheating can increase stress and trigger flare-ups.
💧 Hydrate – Dehydration can affect inner ear function. Aim for 6–8 glasses a day.
🛫 Pack your noise tools – Whether it’s white noise apps or earplugs, don’t leave them behind.
🎆 Skip the fireworks (or protect your ears!) – Sudden loud sounds can make tinnitus worse.
Don't let ringing in your ears steal your summer joy.

🎇 Love fireworks? So do we — but your ears don’t.
Fireworks can reach 150+ decibels — that’s louder than a jet engine and well above the safe limit for your ears.
👂Without protection, just a few seconds of exposure can lead to:
• Temporary or permanent hearing loss
• Ringing in your ears (aka tinnitus)
• Increased sensitivity to sound (hyperacusis)
🎆 Protect your hearing now so you can enjoy the sounds of life later.
