Tinnitus isn’t just about ears.
It’s the way sound is processed — and how it affects focus, sleep, and everyday life.

For some, it sounds like ringing.
For others, buzzing, hissing, or clicking.

Tinnitus is common, but it’s not something people need to face alone.
Professional hearing care can help assess what’s happening and guide supportive management options.

Understanding is the first step.

Sometimes it’s a ringing.
Sometimes a buzzing, hissing, or humming.

Tinnitus affects millions of people — and for many, it comes and goes quietly in the background of daily life.

If you’ve ever noticed sounds that others can’t hear, you’re not alone.
And it’s worth paying attention to.

This week, we’re sharing more about tinnitus — what it is, why it happens, and how professional hearing care can help support those experiencing it.

It’s in shared laughs.
Quiet conversations.
And moments that make us feel close to the people around us.

When hearing feels easier, connection comes more naturally — without effort, strain, or second-guessing.

Because hearing isn’t just about sound.
It’s about staying connected to what matters most.

The nod.
The smile.
The hope it made sense.

Sometimes we nod along, hoping we caught everything that was said.
Those moments can be easy to overlook — but they matter.

They’re often the moments worth noticing.

Hearing is more than detecting sound.

It’s about how the brain makes sense of speech, separates voices from background noise, and turns sound into understanding.

That’s why modern hearing technology focuses on intelligent sound processing — helping speech stand out so conversations feel clearer and more natural.

No two people experience hearing loss in the same way.

It can differ by cause, degree, listening environments, and lifestyle needs — which is why personalised hearing care matters.

Understanding these differences is the first step toward better hearing outcomes.

Step inside the world’s quietest place—an anechoic chamber—and you’ll discover that silence isn’t always peaceful.

With no outside sound, you start to hear your heartbeat, joints moving, even blood rushing in your ears. Stay too long, and your brain struggles to handle the lack of input—some people last only a few minutes!

👂 Your ears (and brain) are designed to process sound. When there’s none, the experience can feel louder than noise.

🌀 Balance Awareness Week | September 14–20
Balance plays a critical role in our daily lives—and as we age, staying steady becomes even more important for our independence and safety.

📊 1 in 4 older adults report falling each year, and untreated hearing loss can increase the risk of falls by 30%.

Here’s why hearing health matters:
👂 Your inner ear contains the vestibular system—your balance control center.
🧠 Hearing loss increases cognitive load, leaving fewer brain resources for balance and movement.
👀 Hearing loss reduces environmental awareness, making tripping and falling more likely.

💡 Good News: Wearing hearing aids can cut the risk of falls by up to 50%!
Starkey’s Edge AI hearing aids go further with a Balance Assessment feature in the My Starkey app—giving you insight into your balance performance and tips to stay steady.

➡️ This Balance Awareness Week, talk to your hearing care professional about better hearing and better balance—because safety starts with awareness.

👂 September is Deaf Awareness Month

This month is dedicated to celebrating Deaf culture, highlighting the importance of equal communication, and recognising the experiences of Deaf and hard-of-hearing South Africans. 💙

Did you know that South African Sign Language (SASL) became our 12th official language in 2023?
It was a major step forward for accessibility and inclusion.

But awareness is just the beginning — together, we can make communication open to everyone and keep building a world where no voice or sign is left unheard. 🌍✨

Fun Fact Friday 🎉
Did you know? 👀

Deaf communities around the world have their own unique sign languages! ✋🤟

South African Sign Language (SASL) is completely different from American Sign Language (ASL) — even though both are used by Deaf communities, they are not the same. 🌍✨

👉 Just like spoken languages (English, Zulu, Afrikaans, French), sign languages have their own grammar, structure, and culture.

👂🤟 : From Global Advocacy to South Africa’s Deaf Awareness Month

In September 1951, the first World Congress of the World Federation of the Deaf was held — a turning point for Deaf rights and recognition worldwide. 🌍

Fast forward to today:
South Africa marks 1–30 September as National Deaf Awareness Month, celebrating Deaf culture, raising awareness about hearing health, and honoring South African Sign Language (SASL) — now our 12th official language.

This September, let’s throw back to how it started… and celebrate how far we’ve come. 💙
