You totally forgot your hearing exam tomorrow, but that’s not really surprising, you’ve been really busy. Luckily, you just received that reminder text from us, and you still have a few hours to get ready. So… what should you do? You won’t need to stay up all night cramming for a hearing test like you […]
You’ve got an active summer planned. Some beach time and lots of swimming for sure. You’ll do some regular running and then maybe take in a baseball game or two before going home and grilling up some tasty dinner. Your schedule is going to be quite full.

Keep your eyes on the road. While this might be sound advice, what about your other senses? As an example, think about the amount of work your ears are doing while driving.

As a swimmer, you love going in the water. The pool is like your second home (when you were a kid, everybody said you were part fish–that’s how often you wanted to go swimming). The water seems a bit…louder… than normal today. And that’s when you realize you may have made a mistake: you wore […]
