Your hearing is more important than you might realize, and at Audicles Hearing Services, a pillar of auditory care in San Antonio since 1944, we understand the deeper impacts of hearing loss that often go unnoticed.

It's not just about missing a few sounds here and there—it's about something bigger and more fundamental to our well-being: our connections with the people around us.

A Problem That’s Bigger Than We Realize

Recent studies have opened our eyes to a major issue—social isolation and loneliness can seriously impact our health. One comprehensive study, which looked at 90 different pieces of research and over two million adults, found some concerning facts.

People who are socially isolated have a 32 percent higher chance of dying prematurely. Those who experience loneliness? They're facing a 14 percent higher risk.

So, how does hearing loss fit into this? When we struggle to hear, socializing becomes hard. Conversations can feel like a struggle, and it’s all too easy to start withdrawing from gatherings and interactions because it feels simpler and less stressful.

But that social withdrawal? It can lead to loneliness and social isolation, which we now know is really harmful to our health. This dangerous cycle showcases how fundamental our hearing is to our overall quality of life.

The study further explains that loneliness and being socially isolated aren’t just emotionally painful—they are also chronic stressors. They constantly pump stress hormones through our body, which, over time, can start to affect our health negatively. This isn’t just a passing problem; it’s a continuous one, and it needs our attention.

We’ve seen firsthand at Audicles Hearing Services the difference addressing hearing loss can make to people’s lives. This is more than just our job—it’s our mission.
