💬 “Growth is painful. Change is painful. But nothing is as painful as staying stuck somewhere you don’t belong.” — Mandy Hale
I think about this quote often when working with patients who are facing untreated hearing loss.
👂 Hearing loss is more than just “missing a few words.” It affects how we connect, how we communicate, and how we feel about ourselves. And making the choice to address it? That can be scary.
Change is hard.
Wearing hearing aids might feel like admitting something you’ve been avoiding.
The process might feel overwhelming.
You might worry about how others will see you.
But staying stuck in the frustration, the isolation, the constant guessing game. THAT is far harder in the long run.
💡 Choosing to hear better is choosing growth. It’s choosing relationships, confidence, safety, and joy.
And I promise, you don’t have to do it alone. We’re here to guide you, step by step!

While it might not get much love, cerumen is actually a superhero for your ears. 💪
🛡️ It acts as a natural barrier, trapping dust, bacteria, and debris before they can get too far.
💧 It keeps your ear canal moisturized, preventing dryness and itchiness.
😌 It even has antimicrobial properties that help protect against infections.
So the next time you think earwax is “gross,” remember, it’s one of your ears’ best defenses. Just another reason not to reach for that Q-tip!

👀 Did you see in the news?!👂
🔬 Exciting advancements are on the horizon in the field of audiology! Two patients in Tucson have become the first in the U.S. to receive the Acclaim, a FULLY implanted cochlear implant that operates without any external equipment. This innovative device is currently undergoing clinical trials at select centers nationwide, including the Center for Neurosciences at Tucson Medical Center.
🦻 Unlike traditional cochlear implants that rely on external microphones and processors, the Acclaim utilizes a sensor that couples to the hearing bones, effectively turning the eardrum into a natural microphone. A rechargeable battery implanted in the chest powers the device, allowing for induction charging by simply placing a charger on the chest. This design aims to provide users with a more seamless and discreet hearing experience.
📊 While the Acclaim is still in the clinical trial phase, the initial results are promising and represent a significant step forward in hearing restoration technology.
👍 At Hearing Advantage, we stay on top of the latest developments in audiology to provide our patients with informed guidance and care. If you have questions about cochlear implants or other hearing solutions, our team is here to help!

🕯️"Does ear candling really work?"
I love that people ask this, but I DO NOT recommend it. EVER.
Despite the hype, that brown goo left in the candle isn’t your earwax, it’s just melted candle residue. Plus, those hollow candles can drip hot wax into your ear canal and even burn your eardrum. 😱
👍Save yourself the risk. Let a licensed professional handle earwax removal safely.

👂 So apparently… our ears try to perk up when we’re really focused on a sound!
📚 I just read this fascinating article about how researchers are studying tiny ear muscles we don’t even realize we’re using. Turns out, these muscles could potentially help create smarter hearing aids, ones that actually respond to how hard you’re trying to listen in a noisy room. 🤯
🦻 We already know hearing is way more than just volume: it's about focus, fatigue, and effort. This kind of research could totally change how hearing aids work in the future!
If hearing feels more like a workout than it should, let’s chat. There are great solutions already available, and even cooler tech on the way.

🌍 Today is World Humanitarian Day! We take time today to honor those who dedicate their lives to helping others and to reflect on how we can contribute to a more compassionate world.
At Hearing Advantage, we're thrilled to see organizations like Hearing the Call, a nonprofit that provides hearing healthcare to underserved communities worldwide. Through partnerships, they offer immediate care, train local providers, and build sustainable hearing programs in areas with limited access to such services.​ If you want a happy cry, check out any of their “Hearing Smiles” videos on YouTube. Cue the waterworks!
But humanitarian efforts aren't just global, they're local too. Here in Green Bay, we've invested in the ADRC, working to educate the community on hearing loss awareness. Whether it's providing hearing aids, conducting screenings, or offering educational resources, we're committed to making a difference right here at home.​
👂 Because everyone deserves the gift of hearing.

🎓📣 Hear we go again... back to campus!
Whether you’re starting undergrad or diving into a grad program, a new school year means new routines, new environments, and new hearing needs.
If you use hearing aids or assistive technology, here are a few quick tips I always share with my college and grad students:
🔌 Charge up & back up. Keep extra batteries or a charger in your bag. You never know when a lecture might go long!
📱 Use your hearing aid app. Adjust settings on the fly for noisy classrooms, labs, or busy student centers.
🗣️ Take advantage of campus accessibility services. Remote mics, captioning, and preferred seating. All these accommodations are there to support your success!
🎧 Consider additional tools. Bluetooth accessories and streaming devices can make a huge difference for lectures or study time.
✏️ Heading back to class should be exciting, not stressful. If you’re unsure how to make your hearing tech campus-ready, I’d love to help. 💬 Send us a message and we’ll get you set up to hear your best this semester!
