Most people avoid hearing aids like the plague.
There is a stigma attached to hearing aids that has been around since they were first offered as a solution to hearing challenges, but that is slowly changing.
The advancements in digital technology used in today’s smartphones is also transforming hearing aids, making them smaller, lighter weight, more discreet to wear, more powerful, and loaded with features that improve your hearing aid experience.
You are probably wondering, “How do I get my hands on advanced technology hearing aids in Magnolia?”
You’re in luck! Magnolia Hearing provides advanced level personalized amplification for optimal hearing that is designed to overcome the unique hearing challenges you’re facing without making you sacrifice your lifestyle and personal preferences.
Take a moment to learn how advanced hearing technology solutions are transforming hearing care.
More Frequencies
Like a standard radio, older analogue hearing aids amplified sound in two channels: treble and bass. Today’s digital hearing aids provide a “mixer board” of frequencies, allowing hearing aids to be programmed to amplify some frequencies and not amplify frequencies you hear naturally.
No More Whistling
Whistling or squealing sounds were common with analogue hearing aids and were a source of embarrassment for hearing aid wearers. Modern hearing aids are designed to detect the tone and wave shape causing the feedback and eliminate it within fractions of a second.
More Natural Sound
Feedback management made it possible to develop hearing devices that do not obstruct the natural passage of sound into your ears. Open-fitting, which allows non-amplified sounds to enter your ears along with processed sounds, produces a natural and more comfortable user experience.
Elimination of Background Noise
A drawback of analogue hearing aids was that they amplified all sounds, including background noise. Consequently, the distinction between speech and the noise of air conditioners, noise from a crowded room, traffic, and other noises was impossible.
Today’s hearing aids are able to distinguish between speech and background noise, assigning each to different frequency bands. Your hearing aids will amplify the sounds you want to hear and reduce the amplification of the noises you don’t want to hear.
Directional Microphones
Another way modern hearing aids help handle background noise is through the use of multiple directional microphones. Directional microphones pinpoint the location of the sounds and conversations around you and a conversation in front of you, making it possible to separate the sounds and amplify only the conversation you’re engaged in.
Streaming and Connectivity Capabilities
Improving your ability to use your hearing aids more comfortably and more effectively is a benefit of the streaming and connectivity capabilities of today’s hearing aids. Linking your hearing aids directly to your smartphone, digital stereo, television, and personal stereos (e.g., iPods and MP3 players), allows you to enhance the performance of your hearing aids when using external devices.
Preprogrammed Options
You don’t need the benefits provided by directional microphones and noise reduction features in a quiet room like you would in a restaurant, at a sporting event, or a concert. Modern hearing aid technology makes it easier to create listening profiles for different listening environments and then toggle through them as you move from one place to another.
Machine Learning and AI Features
Recent innovations in machine learning and artificial intelligence make it possible for your hearing aids to identify sound environment changes as you move from one location to another. Using the data gathered, your hearing aids automatically adjust to the optimal sound profile of each environment.
Greater Convenience
With older hearing aids, you had to change batteries every few days or once a week, but with advancements in battery and charging technology, you can recharge your hearing aids while you sleep and then have plenty of energy to power your hearing aids the following day.
Your hearing challenges drastically affect your relationships and your ability to enjoy an active and independent lifestyle. Hearing aids have the capacity to restore relationships and help you enjoy a better quality of life.

Discover the Perfect Style for You
Say goodbye to bulky devices! Our wide array of styles offer personalized options that suit your unique preferences and lifestyle:

In-The-Canal (ITC)
Although ITC hearing aids are still visible, they are smaller than full-shell ITE styles, covering only the outer portion of the ear canal. ITC hearing aids still have some of the manual controls of full-shell devices and are easier to insert than smaller devices, but they are less powerful, have smaller batteries, and have fewer or less conspicuous manual controls.

Completely-In-The-Canal (CIC)
The two smallest styles of ITE devices are CIC and IIC styles, which are either invisible or nearly invisible. These options provide improved wearing discretion, but they are only able to address mild to moderate hearing loss, use much smaller batteries, do not have manual controls, and require fine dexterity for insertion and removal.

Receiver-In-Canal (RIC)
Another type of BTE style hearing aid, RIC/RITE hearing aids use speaker wires to transmit sound to a speaker (receiver) in the ear in place of acoustical tubing (like the traditional BTE). If this is your first pair of hearing aids, you will benefit greatly from their nearly invisible open-fit design, which provides unmatched comfort and natural sound.

Behind-The-Ear (BTE)
The best solution for those with a severe to profound hearing loss, traditional BTE hearing aid styles offer directional microphones for improved hearing in background noise and feature more built in manual volume and program controls. They come in a variety of colors, and you can choose among features like custom earmolds and rechargeable or disposable battery options.
