Hearing training made easy

Hearing instruments reproduce an abundance of sounds
which frequently haven't been experienced for many years.
Every person reacts differently the first time he or she wears
a hearing instrument. The familiarisation phase therefore
differs from person to person. There are people who are
quite happy to wear their hearing instruments the whole day
long right from the start. Others will regard it as a foreign
body at first. You'll notice that even after a relatively short
time the positive new hearing experience prevails and you'll
find your hearing instruments to be something quite normal.
Hearing training helps you here. You'll become more and
more perfect, and naturally securer, step by step.
1st step
Discover simple sounds in your direct surroundings
Wear your instruments in different situations in different
rooms. Repeat this exercise and you'll become more
and more familiar with the sounds.
2nd step
Experience sounds outdoors
First choose quiet surroundings for this. For instance, while
taking a stroll you'll discover all sorts of sounds in the "silence"
of the forest.
