So many of us wear headphones regularly. What we're not always aware of, is that they can damage the inside of our ears if we're not careful.
Here are some tips to help:
1) Be aware of the volume 🔊
A good rule of thumb is to keep the volume lower than 60% of the maximum volume on your device, and switch off after 60 minutes to give your ears a break.
2) Choose Noise Cancelling Headphones 🎧
This way you don't need to turn up the volume to drown out sounds around you.
3) Opt for Over-the-Ear Headphones instead of In-ear models 👂
Even the small difference in distance, between the speakers in your headphones and your eardrums, will reduce your chances of causing hearing loss.
If someone you know is experiencing problems with their hearing, get in touch for a hearing test or to book ear wax removal.
