Sneezing, itchy eyes, and blocked ears? June's grass pollen peak affects hearing more than most people realise. Allergic inflammation can swell the Eustachian tubes that ventilate your middle ear, and when they cannot equalise pressure, ears feel full, crackly, and muffled.

Treating the allergy helps the ears too: antihistamines and steroid sprays reduce the swelling, and the old tricks (swallowing, yawning, gently blowing with your nose pinched) encourage the tubes to open.

The catch is that ear wax blockage feels almost identical, and summer swimming makes wax swell. You cannot tell the difference from the inside, but a 30-second look with an otoscope settles it. If your ears stay blocked once the pollen drops, that is the moment to get them checked rather than reaching for more antihistamines.

💙 Sometimes the most important part of our job is knowing when not to proceed.

This client is a regular visitor to Hear with Ish and attended expecting a routine ear wax removal appointment. Like many people, he believed a build-up of wax was causing his symptoms.

However, following a thorough assessment, it became clear that something more serious was happening. Rather than proceeding with treatment, he was urgently referred to A&E to ensure he received the immediate medical attention he needed.

Thankfully, he is now receiving the correct treatment and follow-up care.

As Audiologists, our responsibility isn't simply to remove ear wax or fit hearing aids. It's about taking the time to listen, carrying out a comprehensive assessment, recognising when something doesn't seem right, and ensuring our clients receive the most appropriate care.

One of the things I am most proud of is the long-term relationships we build with our clients. Having cared for this gentleman over many years, it was possible to recognise that this wasn't his usual presentation and that urgent medical attention was needed.

This wonderful review is a reminder of why no appointment should ever feel rushed and why personalised, patient-centred care matters so much.

Thank you for your continued trust in Hear with Ish. It is a privilege to support you on your hearing healthcare journey. 💙

People often think owning an audiology practice is all about seeing clients, carrying out hearing assessments, fitting hearing aids, and removing ear wax.

And whilst those are the parts I absolutely love, they're only a small piece of what happens behind the scenes.

Running a small independent practice means wearing many hats every single day.

There are early mornings, late evenings, paperwork, compliance checks, finances to manage, stock takes to complete, and regular clinical professional development to ensure every client receives the highest standard of care.

It's not always glamorous, and sometimes I'm cleaning the clinic after a full day of appointments before heading home to my family. But every challenge is worth it when I see the difference personalised hearing care makes to someone's life.

Being an independent business owner isn't just a job—it's a commitment, a passion, and a responsibility that extends far beyond the clinic room.

And honestly? I wouldn't have it any other way.

Thank you to every client who supports Hear with Ish. Your trust allows this small business to continue doing what it loves most—helping people hear life's best moments. 💙

👂 Your hearing is priceless — protect it.

Today I was preparing a client's custom hearing protection order after taking impressions of their ears. These bespoke ear plugs will be individually made to provide comfortable, effective protection against harmful noise levels.

Whether you work in a noisy environment, attend concerts, play music, ride motorcycles, or simply want to preserve your hearing for the future, custom hearing protection can help prevent permanent noise-induced hearing loss.

The truth is, once hearing damage occurs, it cannot be reversed. That's why prevention is so important.

At Hear with Ish, we take the time to understand your lifestyle and recommend the most appropriate hearing protection for your needs, ensuring you can continue doing what you love whilst protecting your hearing for years to come.

Because hearing isn't just about what you hear today—it's about protecting the memories, conversations and moments you'll want to hear tomorrow. 💙

If your workplace is noisy, your hearing could be at risk without you realising.

Noise-induced hearing loss is permanent, but in many cases it can be prevented with the right protection and regular hearing checks.

A simple rule: if you need to raise your voice to speak to someone an arm’s length away, the noise around you may be too loud.

Custom ear protection can help reduce harmful noise while still allowing you to hear speech, alarms and your surroundings more clearly.

A few weeks back I had the most incredible day at Sonova House in Warrington, and I've been really excited to share it with you 💙

I still can't quite believe I was the first individual ever given a full tour of Sonova UK, and I'm still buzzing about it.

The day started with a warm welcome from Ronnie, my Regional Sales Manager, followed by a brilliant chat with Gareth about marketing and how Sonova can keep supporting Hear With Ish as we grow. Then time with Managing Director Karen Gallagher and Sales Director Jonathan Hale. As a business owner and mum myself, seeing Karen lead with such warmth after so many years with Sonova was something special.

The real highlight was the factory tour with Matthew. Watching ear impressions being scanned, shells being built, electronics fitted, every step in turning what we do in clinic into a finished hearing device that changes someone's life. I asked a thousand questions.

It gave me a whole new appreciation for the detail, precision and teamwork behind every single hearing aid fitting. So much of what we do clinically truly comes to life there.

I also got the chance to do a short Q&A with the team about the future of hearing care and what's coming next. I'll be sharing that in my next post, keep an eye out.

Thank you to the entire Sonova team for such an unforgettable day. I think Ronnie and Matthew were slightly shocked by just how excited I was throughout 😂
