As September is Alzheimer’s Awareness Month, with World Alzheimer’s Day recognised yesterday, we thought it pertinent to highlight the connection between the disease and your hearing!

It has been found that hearing loss has been recognized as one of the risk factors for developing Alzheimer's and other dementias, as it can lead to:
* social isolation,
* increased cognitive load on the brain,
* faster brain shrinkage.

Research has shown that moderate hearing loss could triple your risk of dementia, while severe hearing loss could increase the risk even further! Take the first steps to hearing health by visiting Butlin Hearing for a FREE hearing screening, comprehensive hearing test, or new hearing devices and reduce the likelihood of developing dementia.

Did you know that your ears assist you with more than just listening? They also help with balance! Canals within the inner ear contain fluid and hair-like sensors (cells) that help you keep your balance. These cells are tiny particles that help monitor the position of your head in relation to gravity and motion – such as going up and down or forward and backward while travelling.

If your hearing, or balance, isn’t at its best, it may be time for a comprehensive hearing test with Butlin Hearing! We also offer a FREE hearing screening and advice on, and sale of, hearing devices like Signia Styletto or Signia Silk.

While most of us think that hearing aids are “single-purpose”, they offer multiple benefits by improving communication, reducing social isolation, and boosting self-confidence by amplifying sounds and speech, which can lead to a better quality of life and improved relationships.

In addition, they can also help with symptoms like tinnitus, help maintain sharp cognitive function, and allow users to enjoy subtle sounds in the environment that were previously missed.

If your hearing isn’t at its best, contact Butlin Hearing for a FREE hearing screening, a comprehensive hearing test or a new hearing device!

Did you know that the temporal bone, the hardest bone in the human body, is protecting your hearing? This bone is located on each side of the skull and houses the organs of hearing and balance, including the middle and inner ear, and contains the external auditory canal.
