5 Heart Healthy Reasons To Test Your Hearing

Vascular Health

Research shows a correlation between cardiovascular health and hearing
sensitivity. Hypertension is an accelerating factor in the degradation of the
auditory system; where as improved cardiovascular health has been shown
to slow down the progression of hearing loss.

Heart Disease

Individuals with hearing loss of unknown etiology are 8 times more likely to have
Ischemic Heart Disease (IHD). Awareness of hearing loss often proceeded
awareness of IHD. This means hearing loss can be an early indicator of heart
health complications.

Lifestyle Choices

Many of the same lifestyle behaviors that impact heart health, can also impact
hearing. Physical activity, smoking, and fish consumption are three examples of
behaviors that impact both heart and hearing health.

Preventative Care

Having a hearing baseline and through health
history at age 50 will help to monitor for heart
disease, effects of medication, sudden changes to
hearing, and effects of aging. Early detection can
play a large role in better outcomes.

Quality of Life

Addressing hearing loss improves quality
of life. Hearing aid users report less
stress, frustration, and fatigue; as well as
better interpersonal relationships. This
lowers blood pressure and improves
overall health.

Not my first hearing aids - the first ones purchased several years ago failed to assist in hearing, wouldn't stay in the ear; and were just a PAIN!! So they sat in a box in the bathroom..guess that showed them! So after a recommendation from a trusted friend I went to Hear Care, and I''m glad I did. From the moment I entered I felt this was the place to get some answers. I met Megan and was introduced to Danielle who took the time to listen to my story. She took notes on my issues, problems and desires. Only then did we begin the testing. Here we are a couple of weeks into the use of the hearing aids and the follow up has been very successful. I feel comfortable that I can continue to get any assistance I need from Hear Care.

I have a 2.5 year old boy that seems to be a little bit behind in his speech. I just met with Dr. Jeff Olson today to see if his hearing could be a factor in this situation. I am 46 years old and I have seen a ton of doctors over the years but I have never had an experience where the Dr. completely put my son at ease, was able to communicate with him even though his speech is extremely limited and was able to get the necessary testing done without my son throwing a fit. After the tests were complete it showed that there was some blockage in his middle ear and he was not getting the sound needed to hear 100% clearly. I would HIGHLY recommend anyone who has a child to go to Dr. Olson to have their hearing checked to make sure there isn’t any issues. Between the candies, his staff, and his professionalism, my son thought he was at an amusement park and didn’t want to leave. I would give him 10 stars if it were possible.

Heidi is wonderful! She is careful and compassionate. She seems determined that every visit is one where I learn something more about how to make these devices more useful.

Hear Care Audiology Center is a wonderful place staffed by compassionate and knowledgeable people. They make you feel comfortable from the moment you walk in the door. I received my new hearing aids and had all my questions answered. I will follow-up there and go there for any future hearing aid needs!

Today for the second time I had a critical issue with my aids. Unable to reach my audiologist HearCare was there for me. Staff at HearCare are all wonderful, helpful and sympathetic to hearing loss. They had to send one of my aids back to Mfg. but loaned me a pair while waiting. Highly recommend Dr Pulido!
