This Wednesday, May 6th, eargym officially turns six. I’m amazed by all that’s happened since we incorporated eargym on 6th May 2020. What began as a conversation about the awful impact of unaddressed hearing loss has grown into something far bigger than I ever imagined. As we hit this milestone, my overwhelming feeling isn't just pride in the product—it’s gratitude for the people. 6 milestones we’re proud of We’ve evolved quite a bit from our early days. eargym isn’t just a

In 2026, eargym seeks to bring hearing health to a new population. We’re working with specialists in Cleveland Clinic’s audiology program to co-develop a rehabilitation training pathway for patients who have received cochlear implants, funded by Cleveland Clinic. Cochlear implants are medical devices that bypass damaged parts of the ear to directly stimulate the auditory nerve, enabling people with significant hearing loss to perceive sound and reconnect with spoken language

A vital new debate has just been published in The Gerontologist by Helen Henshaw and her colleagues at the University of Nottingham and NIHR Nottingham BRC. Hearing loss affects an estimated 18 million UK adults (one in three) and is the third leading cause of years lived with disability worldwide. Yet, despite its massive impact, Helen’s research highlights the stark reality that we still lack a systematic adult hearing screening programme in the UK. At eargym, this researc

Have you ever found yourself in a crowded room, able to hear the "noise" of conversation but unable to make out the actual words? You might even have had a standard hearing test only to be told your hearing is perfect. If this sounds familiar, you aren’t alone. You may be experiencing Auditory Processing Disorder (APD). At eargym, we are committed to bridging the gap between hearing science and real-world experience. Here is a deeper look at the research driving our understan

The human brain possesses an incredible, lifelong ability to change and reorganise its connections, a property known as neuroplasticity . While this concept is often applied to motor skills or memory, its application to hearing is revolutionary. For decades, hearing loss was viewed as a passive, permanent sensory deficit. Now, advanced neuroscience confirms that through Auditory-Cognitive Training (ACT) , the central auditory system can be actively optimised, leading to measu

For business partners, investors, and public health strategists, the question surrounding hearing health is not just clinical, it’s economic. Untreated hearing loss is a global health crisis that carries a staggering, quantifiable socioeconomic burden, impacting everything from global productivity to healthcare expenditures. The investment case for scalable, affordable digital hearing solutions, such as those provided by ear gym , rests firmly on mitigating these massive cost

The world of medical research moves incredibly fast. Picture therapies that can correct genetic flaws or drugs that can halt chronic disease. These are real breakthroughs, but they all share one critical challenge: How do we accurately and affordably measure if they actually work? For hearing health and correlated conditions like dementia, diabetes, cardiovascular and circulatory diseases, this measurement gap is especially clear. We know people rarely check their hearing cur
