Wax Removal
Compacted earwax or ‘Cerumen’ can cause temporary hearing loss and adversely affect the performance of hearing aids. ‘Micro-suction’ is a safe, gentle and very effective way of removing wax using a soft suction or vacuum, without using jets of water as with traditional ear syringing. Andrew is one of the few Private Hearing Aid Audiologists clinically trained for micro-suction removal of wax from the ear, all within the comfort of your own home.

Christmas is a time of goodwill. It’s a time to put your feet up in front of the fire and enjoy that chocolate orange.
Unfortunately for many it can become a nightmare of loneliness and stress. To help you avoid the dark side here’s your Christmas List, full of great things to do in your neighbourhood.
To brighten your dark December days, why not get out and do something fun?
Christmas is also a time of massive over consumption. I know from personal experience how easy it is to eat and drink too much over the festive season.
And then it takes ages to recover!
A short lived festive binge can lead to hard to shake off problems in January! So my Christmas resolution this year is to go easy on the turkey, ration out the roasties and cut down on the chocolate... and to be fit enough to celebrate New Year’s Eve in style.
When there’s a sunny day, I’ll be on my bike, cycling Lytham to Fleetwood and enjoying the fantastic finished prom and admiring our sea defences.
Here’s my present to you - your handy Local List of festive fun.
