Give The Gift of Hearing this Christmas

December 9, 2014

Sound is a collection of vibrations and waves that reach your ear and are perceived by your brain as a series of frequencies. This incredible acoustical feat is an important part of the human experience and it adds an incredible layer of dimension to your life. Your hearing allows you to experience music, a child’s laughter, emotions, and even danger. With the holidays just around the corner, the gift of sound may be the best present that you give yourself or a loved this season.

(TheCookieBiteChronicles) Make your own holiday hearing aid covers!

A survey by UK charity Action on Hearing Loss found that conversations with family and friends is what respondents would miss the most if they were to develop hearing loss. Of course, Christmas is largely about sharing time with family and friends, so for those who have developed hearing loss, the holidays can be an especially difficult time. If you already have a great hearing aid, you will know the joy and improvement to the holiday experience that these modern devices can bring. But if you don’t, you may not even realize what you are missing!

At Academy Hearing, we have been helping people to improve their lives and experience the world in a better way for many years. We carry a complete range of hearing aids to help people with all types of hearing loss, and at all budgets. This means that instead of purchasing a new flat screen television for Christmas, you can easily give the gift of hearing; a gift that will be appreciated day in, day out, all year round.

If you suspect that you may be suffering from hearing loss, a diagnostic assessment performed at our Calgary hearing clinic can help determine the extent to which your hearing has been compromised. We can also help you explain the options in today’s hearing aid technology to your loved ones, and get them set up with a new system in time for Christmas gatherings.
