Hearing Aids with Thoreya Audiology
Hearing aids are portable devices worn in or behind your ear to help you hear better. They raise the volume of sounds so that a person with hearing loss can listen, communicate and participate in daily activities more efficiently. In quiet or noisy environments, a hearing aid can help people hear more of what they want to hear and less of what they don't.
All hearing aids have three essential components:
- A microphone, which picks up the sound. The microphone is used to transform sound waves into electric signals and to send them to an amplifier.
- An amplifier, the part that makes the sound louder.
- A speaker, which transmits the sound for you to hear.
Hearing Aid Styles
Hearing aids can be transformative but only if they are the right model, programmed to meet your specific hearing needs. That’s where we come in. We’re excited to work with you to help you find your ideal type and model. There are so many types of hearing aids, it is easy to get confused.
