As 2025 comes to a close, I can’t help but reflect on what a wonderful year we’ve had. I think of the laughter of family and friends, the music that got stuck in my head, the little moments that made life feel alive. 👂
So here’s my question for you: How’d you hear this holiday season? Did you catch every conversation, every giggle, every “Merry Christmas” clearly? Or were there some not-so-clear moments?
Whether it’s checking your hearing, adjusting your devices, or finally addressing that nagging “huh?”... We're here to help you make 2026 the year of clear sound. 🎶
From our team to you: Happy New Year! 🎉
📌 Friendly reminder: Our office will be closed for the holiday, but we’ll be back on Monday January 5th to help you hear every moment clearly very soon.

💬 What patients often tell me …
“I thought I was too young for hearing aids.”
“I didn’t want to feel old.”
“I was nervous it would be a sales pitch.”

These are real words I hear often… and I get it. Trusting someone with your hearing can feel vulnerable. There’s fear, hesitation, and sometimes even a little denial mixed in.

👂But here’s the thing…every single time someone takes that first brave step and sits down in my chair, they’re not just addressing hearing loss, they’re reclaiming connection.

So to everyone who trusted us this year, THANK YOU. Thank you for letting us walk alongside you, answer your questions, and help you hear the world more clearly again.

You may remember I’ve mentioned Auracast before. Essentially, it is a new Bluetooth LE Audio broadcast technology that’s poised to reshape how hearing aids and assistive listening systems work. Well, I just read a great article from HearingTracker that breaks it down in a really user-friendly way.

Here’s what stood out to me (in plain language):

🎧 Auracast broadcasts let venues (think auditoriums, churches, theaters) send audio directly to your hearing aid, earbuds, or headphones, without needing individual receivers or extra equipment.

👍 Because it works over Bluetooth LE, the connection can be more seamless, with less background noise and interference. This is a big step toward audio accessibility! Making “hearing aid friendly” everyone’s default, not an afterthought. Research predicts that, by 2029, 1.5 million public venues are expected to become Auracast locations!

🦻 Why does this matter to you? Because what good is hearing tech if you still struggle in public spaces? Imagine being at a talk, sermon, or performance where the sound system just works with your devices… no extra gear, no awkward asking for “the loop,” no missing words.

🤔 If you're curious whether your hearing aids are ready for Auracast, or want to learn how this could make your listening life easier, I’d love to walk you through it. Let’s make your world sound clearer, everywhere you go.

🎅 “He’s making a list… and checking it twice…”
…but have you checked your hearing yet? 😉

Santa’s not the only one keeping track this season… make sure you’re on the list to get your hearing checked!

It’s always exciting fitting someone with amplification for the first time in front of a loved one. There was this one moment during a hearing aid fitting this week, the patient turned to his wife, heard her clearly, and they both just paused and smiled.
No words needed. That look said, “Hey! You’re back.”
It never gets old seeing these little wins up close.

Have you ever seen this happen to a friend or family member?

Large family gatherings are supposed to be full of laughter, stories, and connection. However, for people with even a mild hearing loss, it can be very hard.

During a recent consult, a couple shared this with me:
“How did your wife hear during that birthday party dinner?”
“She doesn’t do well, she usually nods like she can hear and then asks me about it in the car ride home…”

Let's just say she didn’t challenge his comment.

Moments like this remind us how isolating hearing loss can feel. People often stay quiet, smile, and nod rather than ask for repeats. They’re trying not to be a burden, but missing out on the joy of connection in the process.

One of the amazing gifts of hearing is the ability to tell different pitches (aka frequencies 🤓) apart…something we often take for granted! 👂✨

Think about it:

🔔 The high-pitched jingle of sleigh bells vs. the deep “Ho Ho Ho” of Santa’s laugh
⛄️ The delicate chime of a snow globe vs footsteps stomping through fresh snow
🎄Tiny ornaments clinking as you hang them on the tree vs the rumble of a holiday train set around the tree

🧠 Our brains help us distinguish all these sounds, letting us fully enjoy every festive moment.
If you’ve noticed it’s harder to pick out these details (or conversations get “blurry” in noisy rooms), consider scheduling a hearing check before the end of the year!

Myth: Louder is better.
Fact: Clarity is key.

It’s a common misconception that people with hearing loss just need others to “speak up.” But here’s the truth 👇

👂Hearing loss doesn’t just make sounds quieter…it makes speech distorted and muffled. That means even if someone shouts, the words may still sound unclear or jumbled.

So instead of raising your voice, try:
💬 Facing the person directly
👄 Speaking clearly (not exaggerated)
📺 Reducing background noise when possible

At Falls Hearing, we hope to equip you with tools to thrive this holiday season. And if you or someone you love feels like voices sound mumbly, unclear, or that everyone’s talking too fast, it might be time for a hearing check. Because communication isn’t about volume, it’s about understanding.

🎶 Hark! The Herald Angels Sing
Fun fact: “Hark” actually means LISTEN! 👂

So when the angels are singing (or the kids are sneaking cookies before dinner 😏), make sure you’re actually hearing it ALL!

12/10/2025

✨ It’s the most wonderful time of the yEAR! (See what I did there?) 😉

I often mention… this season is full of sound and for those with hearing loss, all that joyful noise can sometimes feel… isolating.

When conversations blend into background chatter, it’s easy to feel left out, even in a crowded room. So keep an eye out for any loved ones who are starting to withdraw at holiday gatherings.

Let us know if you need any tips for having a conversation with someone who has hearing loss at a family gathering. We are happy to help!
