About this Event

Have you ever felt left out of a conversation because you just couldn't hear clearly? Or felt excluded from the fun because the whole room is laughing at a punch line to the joke that you missed? Most of us recognize how important inclusion and social connection are to our emotional well-being. Untreated hearing loss can lead to social isolation, anxiety, sadness, and depression.

Did you know that hearing loss is also deeply connected to our physical health? Adults with hearing loss are up to 5X more likely to develop dementia. Hearing loss is linked to a 3X risk of falling. Accidental incidents are up to 50% more likely for people with hearing loss. Clearly hearing loss is crucial to our ability to lead longer fuller more confident lives yet many are still reluctant to take control of their hearing health because of old stigmas or poor experiences with outdated technologies.

Whether or not you feel ready to pursue treatment, keeping an eye on your hearing is important. If you have noticed any changes, or if you would just like to talk through your options, help is here. Even a simple evaluation can provide helpful information and peace of mind.

This presentation is designed to raise awareness and encourage our community to take control of their health and happiness. All participants are invited to make an appointment today for a free evaluation and consultation.
