Investing in hearing aids is a life-changing first step to better hearing and better health. But are you getting the full benefits from your hearing aids?

Consistent daily usage is essential for your brain to adapt to new hearing aids and improve your brain’s ability to recognize and process sounds. However, to get the most from your hearing aids you also need to visit your hearing professional on a regular basis to have them updated, cleaned and optimized.

Modern hearing aids use artificial intelligence to analyze the environment, helping the user focus on speech and hear clearly even in a crowded restaurant. The ability to reach this level of performance depends on the technology in the hearing aids and the skill of your hearing care professional. Only with regular visits, adjustments, and a little experimentation can your hearing aids be set optimally for your specific hearing needs.

Today’s devices also have capabilities that extend far beyond sound amplification:

1. Health monitoring. Some devices can track physical activity, monitor respiration rates, and help users stay on top of their fitness goals.
2. Balance support. Certain models integrate with smartphone apps that provide exercises designed to help improve balance.
3. Tinnitus management. For the more than 20% of older adults who experience tinnitus (a persistent ringing in the ears), hearing aids are frequently the most effective tool for managing and reducing its perceived annoyance.

Hearing aids are no longer just for hearing; they are tools that support overall quality of life, cognitive health, and social connection.

To get the most from your hearing aids, it is essential to have an ongoing partnership with your hearing care professional for regular checkups, cleaning, and fine-tuning.

The specialists at Hearing Help Plus are dedicated to helping clients maximize their investment by leveraging every available tool and adjustment opportunity.
