🧣 It’s cold out HEAR! ❄️

Winter weather is here, and while you’re bundling up, don’t forget to show your hearing aids a little extra love!

Cold temps, condensation, and hat friction can all cause issues if you’re not careful. Here are a few quick tips to keep your devices happy and working their best:

👂 Watch out for moisture: When you come inside from the cold, let your hearing aids dry completely. A dehumidifier or drying kit works wonders!

🧢 Be mindful with hats: Tight beanies or ear-covering hats can knock your hearing aids loose, create feedback, or add extra pressure. Choose a soft, breathable hat that gives your ears a bit of space.

🌡️ Avoid leaving hearing aids in the car: Extreme cold can drain batteries faster (and no one wants a “silent night” because of that).

Because your hearing health matters long after the fitting, and we want you to hear every cozy, wintery moment this season. ❄️

It’s always exciting fitting someone with amplification for the first time in front of a loved one. When they can hear their spouse speaking at a normal volume. A whole new world of sound is back.

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 Shoreline 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!

Hearing aids can be life changing!

Be honest, 😉 have you been missing the sound of sleigh bells, doorbells, or even your oven timer lately?

If you’re thinking “Hmm… maybe,” it might be time to get your hearing checked before the holidays are in full swing!

🎅 “Santa, can’t you hear me?”

If even Santa is missing the message this year, it might be time for more than milk and cookies …maybe a hearing tune-up! 😉

…because the best sounds of the season deserve to be heard loud and clear!

🎵 All I want for Christmas… is CLAAAARITY!

🎶“I don’t want a lot for Christmas
there is just one thing I need…
To hear the laughter, songs, and stories crystal clear and joyfully!” 👂

🎁 Because let’s be honest…hearing the moments that matter beats any gift under the tree.

👂 If your hearing feels a little fuzzy, it might be time to check that list (and your hearing) twice.
