Hearing Loss and Balance

Hearing loss is one of several factors that can cause falls. Individuals who have even a mild degree of hearing loss are three times as likely to experience accidental falls. Studies have shown that wearing hearing aids improves balance compared to an individual who does not wear hearing aids, but who has hearing loss. There are three major ideas for why hearing loss can affect our balance: 1) hearing loss causes less awareness of our environment, which means less awareness of people or activities around us; 2) hearing loss decreases spatial awareness, which makes it harder to know where you are compared to your surroundings; and 3) hearing loss uses more brain energy, which means there is less energy for balance.

Reflexology for Digestive Balance

Many people living with Irritable Bowel Syndrome look for gentle ways to support digestive health. Reflexology focuses on specific pressure points on the feet that correspond with organs throughout the body, including the stomach, intestines, and colon. Practitioners stimulate these reflex areas to encourage better communication between the nervous system and digestive tract. This may help support healthier digestive function, improve bowel regularity, and reduce discomfort such as bloating or cramping. Reflexology also promotes relaxation, circulation and balance which can benefit digestion overall. Many people seek reflexology in spring to help overall body balance after the long winter months.
