This month, let’s shine a light on the connection between hearing and brain health.

Better hearing = better living. If you would like to experience the difference, stop by our offices or call, (516) 798-1502.

Do you ever hear ringing, buzzing, or humming in your ears when no sound is present?
That’s called tinnitus — and it affects over 25 million Americans regularly.

Causes can include:
• Noise exposure (concerts, earbuds, loud work environments)
• Hearing loss
• Ear infections or medical conditions
• Stress and certain medications

While there’s no “one cure,” there are proven ways to manage tinnitus: sound therapy, hearing aids, relaxation techniques, and professional audiology care.

You don’t have to live with the ringing alone. Support and solutions are available. Give as a call here at The Hearing Connection at (516) 798-1502.

Protect your hearing. Seek help early. Reclaim the quiet.

Today we celebrate the International Day of Sign Languages — a reminder that communication is a human right.

Sign language empowers millions of people around the world who are Deaf and hard of hearing to connect, learn, and thrive.

As audiologists and hearing health advocates, we honor and support:
• The beauty and diversity of sign languages
• The importance of accessibility and inclusion
• The right of every person to express themselves and be understood

Whether through hearing technology, sign language, or both — everyone deserves a voice.

Let’s work together for a world where no one is left out of the conversation.

What is Hearing the Call?

Hearing the Call is a movement of audiologists and communities working together to bring the gift of hearing to people in need — both here at home and around the world.

We believe:
• Everyone deserves access to hearing healthcare.
• Hearing connects people to family, work, education, and life itself.
• By giving the gift of hearing, we restore not only sound… but hope, dignity, and opportunity.

From local clinics to global outreach trips, Hearing the Call empowers audiologists to serve, and patients to reconnect with the world around them.

Because when people hear better, they live better.

When you support The Hearing Connection, it means you are supporting Hearing the Call and advancing hearing healthcare and awareness around the world. Thank you for taking this journey with us.
