Football season has officially kicked off. Fans are rushing to the stores to buy jerseys, heading to Pendleton King Park for a quick game of touch football and getting ready to stock up on Super Bowl snacks.
If football season is your favorite part of autumn, you probably want to make sure you don’t miss a single thing. Hearing aids might just be the tool to make that happen.
How Do Hearing Aids Improve Football Season?
Hearing aids are small but mighty devices that bring you closer to the game. There are a few ways they can improve your football season:
- Amplifying speech. The primary and most significant benefit of hearing aids is the amplified speech they provide. When you wear your devices, you can feel secure knowing that you aren’t missing a single touchdown announcement or penalty call.
- Background noise suppression. You likely don’t want to hear every sound at full volume. Modern hearing aids use advanced AI sound processing to recognize and amplify the sounds you want to hear, like voices and important background details, while gently reducing distracting noises like shuffling in the bleachers or the crinkle of a snack bag being opened.
- Tinnitus management. Approximately 90% of tinnitus cases have an underlying hearing loss. Because that internal ringing often accompanies hearing loss, many new hearing aids offer a tinnitus masking feature that calms the internal ringing, allowing you to focus on the game.
Many people assume that hearing aids are only helpful for those with significant hearing loss, but that’s a common misconception. Even mild hearing loss can gradually affect your communication, relationships and overall quality of life. Addressing hearing loss early can help you stay connected and engaged in the activities that matter most—like cheering on your favorite team with close friends.
