Hearing Aid Features

Each one of us is different and no two ears are the same, so we are careful in recommending what will work best for you based on your unique hearing loss, lifestyle, and listening needs.

Noise Reduction

Noise Reduction

Difficulty in background noise is one of the most common symptoms of hearing loss.

Noise Reduction

Today's hearing aids have noise reduction features that can detect voices in noise and remove the unwanted bits to give you clearer access to what is being said.

Clarity

Clarity

If you've noticed you seem to be hearing fine but you're not understanding words very well, you might need a boost in the high pitches.

Clarity

It is common for hearing loss to affect the high pitches first, which is where we hear consonant sounds like "s", "th", and "sh". If you miss one of those sounds, it's difficult sometimes to know what the word was. For example hearing the difference between "sunny" and "funny" is quite tough if you have hearing loss in the high pitches.

Hearing aids are designed to amplify only the sound where you have a hearing loss, making speech clearer, not louder.

Rechargeable

Rechargeable

Many of today's hearing aids have rechargeable batteries.

This feature not only adds convenience and ease, it also saves the planet. Rechargeable hearing aids eliminate the need to change batteries making devices less cumbersome and easier to manage.

Connection

Connection

Hearing aids are Bluetooth compatible and connect with smart phones, tablets, and computers. You can stream music, videos, and phone calls straight to your hearing aids so you never miss out.

Tinnitus Management

Tinnitus Management

Tinnitus often accompanies hearing loss. Use your hearing aids to help manage your perception of the sound.

Tinnitus Management

Many hearing aids can be programmed with different types of tinnitus management systems. Usually, these settings have some form of calming sound to help keep our thoughts away from the ringing. Sounds range from pleasant ocean waves to broadband noise but can be adjusted for exactly what works for you.

Personalized

Personalized

Hearing aids can be manually and automatically set to determine your preferences.

Personalized

Hearing aids can learn our preferences over time, making their automatic adjustments personalized. After your audiologist sets up your devices for your hearing loss, you can make changes to the settings using your smart phone or buttons on the hearing aid. Over time, your hearing aids will remember what your favorite settings are so you are free to roam and hear in every environment, every time.

“I used to nod along in conversations, but now I can finally hear everything clearly”

For years, Gayle managed her hearing loss by quietly nodding along, missing out on the full experience of conversations. After meeting Audiologist Carol Crowther at Brenna Sincock Hearing, she realised just how much she’d been missing.

“I honestly thought hearing aids would be awkward and uncomfortable, but they’re not.” Now, with her new hearing aids, Gayle can fully engage again, hearing everything from voices in noisy cafés to the details of daily life. She even laughs about finally keeping her TV at a volume that can’t be heard outside.

“Hearing aids complete your life because you’re hearing properly again, like you used to when you were younger.” Reconnected to the world around her, Gayle is grateful to finally hear clearly and encourages others to consider the difference hearing aids could make.

“Melanie provided exceptional care and cutting-edge hearing aids that transformed my experience with tinnitus and hearing loss”

As someone with lifelong tinnitus and genetic hearing loss, I was initially reluctant to wear hearing aids. In the UK, the NHS fitted me with a discreet pair during my teenage years, revealing a world of sounds I hadn’t known I was missing. However, technology moves fast, and when I tried one of the latest models, it was a game changer – with Bluetooth and volume control via my phone, clearer speech, and comfort even at a loud gig.

I was nervous about my diagnostic assessment since the process was new to me, but Melanie put me at ease. If you’re experiencing hearing loss or tinnitus, I’d highly recommend booking an appointment with Melanie.

"Everyone should hear the birds like this"

My husband was nagging me that I couldn’t hear him. He felt that I was missing out on so much, that finally made me head for a hearing test. Best thing I ever did.

My husband is a pilot and had done his aviation medical audiogram with Scott and really liked his manner, knowledge and professionalism, so once I had realised I needed to seek expert hearing advice, it was an easy choice.

After about 10mins in the sound booth, my audiogram results showed that I would benefit greatly from wearing hearing aids. Options were discussed with me and once I had made a decision, digital hearing aids were produced on the spot. I went away a little bewildered, hearing everything with crystal clarity.

I recall saying before I had decided to have a hearing test, - I can hear the bird song, so what am I missing? Yes I could hear the birds but not like I can now with hearing aids. They are amazing and so crystal clear. Everyone should hear the birds like this.
