Attune is raising awareness of the link between hearing loss and cardiovascular disease for World Heart Day which is today, Monday, September 29.
A growing body of research shows that a person's hearing health and cardiovascular health frequently correspond.
Attune is challenging people to take a free, confidential, 15-minute hearing check at any of its national clinics.
Studies show that a healthy cardiovascular system has a positive effect on hearing, while inadequate blood flow and trauma to the blood vessels of the inner ear can contribute to hearing loss.
Addressing hearing loss can help to improve quality of life and reduce stress.
According to Attune, eight out of 10 hearing aid users say they're satisfied with the changes that have occurred in their lives due to their hearing aids.
Many say they see improvements in their lives overall, in interpersonal relationships, and that they experienced reduced anger and frustration, and enhanced emotional stability.
Today's hearing aids have improved dramatically and are virtually invisible.
The options are so varied there is an attractive solution for everyone.
For more information on hearing loss and to take the Attune challenge, call 1800 195 155 and make an appointment.
Attune has many clinic locations, the closest to the Southern Highlands is at Goulburn.
