If you suffer from tinnitus (ringing in the ears) and possess a hearing loss that would benefit from hearing aids, new technology positions the audiologist to effectively relieve this condition through hearing instrument programming. Siemens Micon technology features four therapy signals including white noise, pink noise, speech noise, and high-tone noise. These therapy signals can be used to lower the perceived level of tinnitus over time. While other treatment approaches utilize sound generators to distract the tinnitus sufferer from the sounds of this condition, the Micon empowered hearing aid can "mix" these therapy signals into the hearing aid programming settings. The signals can also be introduced through a separate signal generator and adjusted accordingly. The goal of this approach is to provide customized relief from tinnitus for the hearing aid user. Siemens Micon technology is available in Ace, Life, Pure, and Aquaris hearing aids.
