Your hearing is your key to the outside world, the way in to social situations, a vital element in communication. Conversations sit at the heart of life.
So maybe you have noticed lately that you cannot hear as well as you used to be able to? Perhaps you are struggling to distinguish what people are saying in a crowded room. Or do you need the TV turned up a lot louder? Or even – and this will resonate with many of us – you feel as though everyone around you has started to mumble?
There are simple strategies you could use to help you understand people better, and these may work in the short term.
But for a long-term solution, you need to acknowledge that now is the time to make an appointment with a hearing specialist.
The experts here at Cotswold Hearing can offer a free, no-obligation appointment where your hearing can be fully checked. And if hearing aids are the answer, then we have the perfect solution in Phonak Lumity rechargeable hearing aids.
For people who have hearing loss, being able to take part fully in a range of conversations, with multiple people who have a range of voice tones and pitches, is like seeing a spark of light in the dark.
The Audéo Lumity range is specially designed to focus on finding that spark, helping the user understand speech – even in a situation where it is hard to hear, like a crowded room or when travelling in the car on a busy road. Your Lumity hearing aid is rechargeable, and will remain charged throughout the day.
Lumity uses the very latest in artificial-intelligence-based machine learning to identify and adjust to each individual sound environment and incorporates the reliability of lithium-ion technology to offer improved speech understanding and give precise detection of speech from any direction.
What does that mean? Well, it allows you to fully immerse yourself in conversations. It allows you to enjoy the benefits of this technology from the very beginning, with a great first-fit experience. And it means you can hear the chatter of your grandchildren and the conversation with you partner in the restaurant.
A key feature that make Phonak Lumity hearing aids stand out from the crowd is their use of AutoSense OS. What benefits does that offer?
Situations that many hearing aid wearers rank as very important are one-to-one and group conversations. Programs such as Dynamic Noise Cancellation and Motion Sensor Hearing will work to cancel spatial noise and optimise the audio experience when on the go.
A really common aspect of hearing issues is the loss of high-frequency sounds. SoundRecover2 aims to restore these sounds, while still allowing the listener to hear low-frequency sounds as well. This in turn will help with speech understanding. And if you are struggling to hear while watching TV, the Phonak TV Connector will plug into your device and stream media directly to your Lumity hearing aids.
And let’s not forget softer speech. Many of us will want to listen to people who speak more softly, whether that be an older friend or a younger relative. Speech Enhancer automatically activates when soft speech is detected, and works to specifically target soft and distant speech in a quiet situation.
Audéo Lumity also supports the ActiveVent Receiver – the world’s first intelligent hearing aid receiver. It balances speech clarity in noise and listening comfort – leading to a better understanding of speech in nosy situations.
The Audéo Lumity family includes the perfect hearing aid for your needs, all suitable for hearing loss ranging from mild to profound, and offering health data tracking:
