Are you over the age of 50? Have you experienced ringing or buzzing in your ears? Do you have diabetes or high blood pressure, or sometimes have difficulty hearing? Are you retired and having more and more senior moments? If so, this program is for you! This program is also for you if any of these questions apply to someone you love.
Studies have found an association between hearing loss and the development of dementia and cognitive decline in older adults.
In this talk by Rhee Nesson, Au.D., Doctor of Audiology & Certified Dementia Practitioner, & Founder of Hearing Doctors of New Jersey, you will learn:
● What is hearing loss and how it is diagnosed.
● What is that annoying ringing or buzzing sound in your ears?
● The latest research on the connection between hearing loss and cognitive decline.
● How advanced hearing aid technology can help you stop struggling, get rid of the ringing in your ears, and reduce your risk for dementia.
Dr. Rhee Nesson attended the University of Michigan where she received her undergraduate degree. She went on to attend Hunter College and then the Graduate Center of New York where she earned her Doctorate in Audiology. She is a member of professional organizations, including ASHA (American Speech-Hearing Association) and AAA (American Academy of Audiology). Ever since her grandmother was diagnosed with dementia and hearing loss, she has been interested in the connection between how the ears and brain work and has concentrated much of her independent continuing education in that area of study.
By applying the latest research along with cutting edge technology, she focuses on treating hearing loss early to improve one’s overall health and cognitive function to significantly reduce the risk of developing dementia. By using the gold-standard of best practice audiology, Dr. Nesson developed the proprietary H.E.A.R. Method™ Treatment Program which creates customized hearing solutions for each person she treats so that they stop saying “what.”
This program is open to all and no registration is required.
