A Clever Way To Use Earplugs On Tube

By: Maya from Bollsen

Introduction: Is Noise Ruining Your Commute?

If you’ve ever traveled on the London Underground’s Northern Line or a similarly noisy subway system, you’ll know how overwhelming the experience can be. The pressure, the loud chatter, and the cramped spaces can turn a simple ride into an unbearable ordeal. In this article, we’ll explore how a simple solution—earplugs—can make your commute more comfortable, productive, and enjoyable.

The Challenges of Public Transport: Noise and Overcrowding

Commuting via public transport, especially in a busy city, comes with its fair share of challenges. Whether it’s rush hour on the Tube or a crowded weekend train ride, it often feels like every seat is taken and every aisle is full.

And then there’s the noise: people talking loudly on their phones, children crying, announcements echoing. It all adds up to an environment that’s far from ideal when you’re trying to get some work done or even just relax.

Noise Pressure and Its Impact

One common problem with train rides, particularly on older lines, is the intense noise pressure. For some people, this noise is more than just an inconvenience. Children and ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) patients can experience real pain due to the pressure fluctuations that occur inside trains and underground systems.

During my own recent journey from Mill Hill East to Morden, the noise felt like being at a rock concert. The pressure built up in my ears, making the ride both physically uncomfortable and mentally exhausting.

How Life+ Earplugs Provide Relief

On my return journey, I remembered the solution that should have been obvious—I work for a company that makes hearing protection! I used BOLLSEN® Life+ earplugs and immediately noticed a significant difference.

The compact design of Life+ earplugs helps stabilize the pressure in your ears, preventing discomfort caused by overpressure or underpressure. This is especially useful for sensitive individuals and those prone to ear pain in noisy environments.

Filter Out the Noise, Stay Focused on What Matters

Another great feature of Life+ is their advanced filter technology. Unlike traditional earplugs that completely block out sound, Life+ are designed to reduce background noise while allowing you to still hear important announcements. With the unnecessary noise minimized, I was finally able to focus on my work without distractions.

Imagine being able to answer emails or even make some progress on a presentation during your train journey, all while staying comfortable. That’s what Life+ made possible for me.

Benefits of Life+ Earplugs on Different Modes of Transport

Life+ aren’t just for the Tube. Whether you’re on a crowded bus or an airplane with fluctuating cabin pressure, these earplugs provide consistent comfort. The filter technology adapts to reduce ambient noise while maintaining awareness of essential sounds, making it versatile for various travel scenarios.

Why Earplugs Are a Must-Have for Your Commute

Here are a few key reasons why earplugs like Life+ should be your go-to companion on noisy commutes:

  • Protect Your Ears: Prolonged exposure to loud noises can lead to hearing damage. Life+ help dampen the sound to safe levels, protecting your hearing during frequent, noisy commutes.
  • Improve Focus: With minimized noise distractions, you can make better use of your commute time. Whether you need to read, work, or just relax, earplugs allow you to maintain focus and block out the chaos.
  • Comfort on Long Journeys: Pressure changes, especially on subway systems or airplanes, can be uncomfortable. Life+ earplugs are specifically designed to regulate ear pressure, making your travel experience more comfortable.
