Hearing Aid Services: Sound Profile Snapshot
Our hearing experts are life-long learners, immersed in the art and science of rehabilitating hearing loss. We are always seeking out better ways of offering a higher standard of service and more powerful results for clients. The UBHearing™ Sound Profile Snapshot is an example of a hearing aid service, available only at UBHearing™, that solves an important, specific problem for hearing aid users and professionals alike.
Hearing aids are initially programmed based on your hearing test results. However, unlike vision correction, where a measured 20/20 is an easily definable way of knowing a goal has been met, hearing is more subjective and personal. Even when a hearing aid is programmed exactly according to the recommended formula based on your unique hearing loss, clients sometimes still experience discomfort or dissatisfaction with the quality of the sound - particularly in the early weeks after being fitted with new hearing aids. This is where the hearing expert departs from the "science" of their profession and taps into the "art".
When all the measurable factors have been addressed, your hearing professional needs to understand how to adjust for complaints such as sounds being too "boomy" or "tinny", issues with "echo" or feeling as though your hearing inside a "tunnel". Our hearing experts are trained to interpret these descriptions and translate them into corresponding adjustments that, through trial and error, will arrive at the place where any irritants you have been experiencing are eliminated. The problem is that, once we've arrived at this destination, the programming process usually starts all over again when you eventually purchase new hearing aids. All that time spent tweaking and fine-tuning is lost, and you are starting again from square one.
UBHearing™ Sound Profile Snapshot solves this problem, using state-of-the-art technology to capture and preserve the unique sound profile you and your hearing experts worked together to create. This ensures that you don't need to start from scratch when your hearing aids eventually require replacement, regardless of whether you replace them with the same manufacturer or technology level or not. The work of art you and your hearing expert created together is a precious commodity, and UBHearing™ helps you protect it.
