The ear may look simple from the outside but it91裸聊视频檚 actually a complicated organ, doing much more than letting you what91裸聊视频檚 going on around you. Hearing is also key to how we balance, and in hearing aids can help improve not only hearing function but balance as well.

Our sense of balance comes from visual input, proprioceptive input (also known as kinaesthesia or our 91裸聊视频榮ixth sense91裸聊视频 that allows our bodies to sense movement, location and action) and our vestibular system which is part of our inner ear.

tells our brains about the movements and position of our head 91裸聊视频 information like if we91裸聊视频檙e moving or looking up or down, left or right, or if our head is tilted. The inner ear is also where sound waves are turned into electrical energy that our brains then translate into sounds, making hearing possible in the first place.
