Lumity new hearing aids

New rechargeable hearing aids

For better hearing in background noise.

The most desired request from current hearing aid users is ‘better hearing in background noise’ so this is the main focus for Phonak’s new Audeo Lumity, helping you to fully immerse in conversations in any environment.

Lumity Hearing Aid Features

There are two key developments:

    • StereoZoom 2.0 – designed to focus the microphones of the hearing aids forwards when the hearing aid user is in a noisy surroundings so you can hear what you are looking at with a smoother, more gradual adaption to the sound levels as they change. As the noise levels increase, there’s a gradual focus on the person in front and hopefully should remove that trapped in a bubble, blocked off feeling when you’re in background noise.
    •  SpeechSensor – a 360-degree speech detection algorithm allowing you to hear more conversations from all around you. Phonak say that approximately 80% of conversations come in front of us on a day-to-day basis, with 20% coming from the behind or to the side. This means you will pick up speech without having to turn your head towards the speaker.

In addition Lumity also includes:

  • Universal Bluetooth® connectivity
  • Exceptional sound
  • myPhonak app pairing for make adjustments, creating customised programs and optional goal settings. You also connect directly with your clinical audiologist who can provide remote assistance.

If you have hearing aids currently, or feel you may have hearing loss as you’re struggling to hear conversations in background noise call us for a consultation and you can demo these new Lumity hearing aids.

According to these guidelines, audiology services fall into this category as an “essential service”.  So please feel free to visit us and ensure that your hearing is at its best in time for the festive season!

Instant wax removal service

Microsuction available at our Cheadle clinic for £60.

Wax blocking the ear canal can be annoying and frustrating. We provide a safe and effective ear care service.  No need to wait weeks to see your GP, you can normally be seen within 24 hours.

Microsuction is the most effective and quickest form of wax removal.  Wax can be removed more easily and quickly if you use softening drops, or olive oil, prior to your appointment; but this is not always necessary.

We offer the full range of ear care techniques including Irrigation and instrumentation.

DJ Eddy Temple-Morris earplugs for tinnitus

If you’re a DJ or a muso and you’re reading this and thinking ‘maybe it’s time I got some earplugs…’, hold that thought and listen: there is NO ‘maybe’ about it. I cannot stress to you how important it is to protect your ears, they are your living, and they are under almost daily barrage.

I cannot stress to you how important it is to protect your ears, they are your living, and they are under almost daily barrage.

I’ve been on tour with The Prodigy and played gigs so big the monitoring is 30,000 watts of sound, but if you’re thinking ‘I only play little gigs’ it’s often those sh*tty little sound systems at Camden Monarch or some bar that will cause the most damage.

One day, years ago, my colleague Erol Alkan told me he’d lost 40% of the hearing in one of his ears and that he’d just discovered Geraldine and Paul at Musicians Hearing Services.

That recommendation changed my life. I’d get tinnitus SO badly after every gig, that I couldn’t sleep, and I’d be ill as a result. My immune system was shot through and I was a mess.

Since getting MHS to sort me out with plugs, I carry them EVERYWHERE and use them at big gigs, little gigs, parties, anywhere with a sound system. Now I sleep, I’m healthy and my ears aren’t getting any worse despite my job.

They make it easy, they are nice people, they’ll even get rid of that horrid build up of years worth of wax for you.

The plugs come in varying degrees of sound reduction and they just reduce it, not muffle it like those spongy yellow ones you can get for free at festivals. You’ll still hear the sizzle of a hi-hat and the boom of a kick drum, just at less damaging volume.

Now if you’re final thought is ‘hmmm but its quite expensive…’ Stop. It’s the best money I EVER spent.

Do it now. You will not regret it. Just guard them with your life!

PS – just one more thing – if you’re thinking ‘this is one of those free plugs for a plug thing…’ NO. This is from the heart and I paid the same for my earplugs as you will pay for yours.
