Wearing your <a href=\"https:\/\/nelsonhearing.com\/hearing-aids\/benefits-of-hearing-aids\/\">hearing aids<\/a> can help you stay aware of your surroundings, ensuring you can hear any potential dangers. For activities like running or walking through Hills Park, being able to hear traffic or hazards becomes crucial.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Better communication: If you enjoy participating in team sports, effective communication with your teammates is essential. Background noises can make it challenging to hear and interact effectively. By wearing your hearing aids, you&#8217;ll be able to engage in conversations, stay focused and even hear instructions during workout classes. Additionally, working out can be a social activity, and your hearing aids will enable you to fully participate.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Listening to music: Music often serves as a motivator during workouts. Fortunately, many hearing aids come equipped with Bluetooth\u00ae technology, allowing you to stream your favorite music directly through your hearing aids. This feature provides a seamless and immersive workout experience.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember, you\u2019ll need to care for your hearing aids during and after any physical activity. Regardless of your workout routine, make it a habit to clean your hearing aids daily. If you haven&#8217;t received a hearing aid maintenance or cleaning kit from your hearing specialist, you can easily purchase one online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, it&#8217;s important to dry your hearing aids thoroughly after they have been exposed to moisture, such as during a workout. Moisture can damage the internal components and compromise their functionality. To prevent the possibility of losing your hearing aids during physical activity, consider using a hearing aid clip. These handy devices attach your hearing aids to your clothing, ensuring they stay securely in place even during rigorous workouts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have any questions about your hearing aids or would like to <a href=\"https:\/\/nelsonhearing.com\/hearing-loss\/\">schedule a hearing test<\/a>, contact Nelson Hearing Clinics today.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><ul class=\"related-posts\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/nelsonhearing.com\/maximizing-the-lifespan-of-your-hearing-aids-essential-care-tips\/\" class=\"related-post\">Maximizing the Lifespan of Your Hearing Aids: Essential Care Tips<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/nelsonhearing.com\/is-hearing-loss-preventing-you-from-hearing-the-world-around-you\/\" class=\"related-post\">Is Hearing Loss Preventing You from Hearing the World Around You?<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/nelsonhearing.com\/how-do-hearing-aids-work-and-how-to-you-acquire-them\/\" class=\"related-post\">How Do Hearing Aids Work (And How to You Acquire Them?)<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nearly 28.8 million people in the U.S. could benefit from hearing aids.
