Phoenix Hearing Aids The Need for a Hearing AidMost people with hearing loss benefit from the use of hearing aids. Hearing aids decrease the difficulties and frustrations associated with hearing loss by improving your ability to listen and communicate more effectively. Today's advanced technology in hearing instrumentation has helped countless numbers of hearing impaired individuals lead fuller, richer lives. Essentially, hearing aids offer less strain, more freedom to go about and concentrate on your everyday life activities. Digital Hearing Aid TechnologyDigital hearing instruments are computer programmed for a variety of listening situations, and appropriately for the individual's hearing loss needs. In laymans terms, the microchip in the hearing aid monitors incoming sounds millions of times per second, translating those sounds into a digital code of ones and zeros -- known as the digital domain. The ones and zeros are processed in the blink of an eye to match your listening needs and requirements. The sound the listener receives is clearer and more audible. The most attractive feature of these new, high tech hearing instruments is that many are completely automatic. The hearing aids automatically adjust the volume, separate high and low frequencies, and manage background noise and feedback while adapting to the environment around you. And if your hearing loss needs change over time the hearing instruments can be reprogrammed to accommodate those changes. Open Fit

We are proud to offer hearing aid products from the following worldwide leading manufacturers and laboratories. |
Open fit hearing aids do not block the ear canal. They are typically smaller behind-the-ear models that are the most recent development in hearing aid technology. Keeping the ear canal open allows the listener to use their natural hearing for sounds they hear well, while the hearing aid boosts the sounds they cannot hear resulting in a more natural feel on the ear and sound quality.
This style offers the ultimate in concealment. Newer circuit technology allows these instruments to perform better on the telephone. It also reduces wind noise. Placing the instrument closer to the eardrum means less amplification is needed to fit a broader range of hearing impairments.
This style offers more concealment. It fits down in the canal of the ear and is relatively unnoticeable. Today's technology allows this style to fit a broader range of hearing loss.
This style is custom made to fit in your ear with no wires or tubes coming out of the ear. It is comfortable and will meet a wide variety of hearing impairments.
This style places the circuitry and microphone behind the ear. It meets a wide range of hearing needs and frequently is used for more severe hearing impairments or steeply sloping hearing impairments where air ventilation is required.
