Why New Hearing Aid Users Need Auditory Training

Getting new hearing aids is just the first step toward better hearing. LACE AI Pro auditory training helps your brain adapt to amplified sound faster and more effectively.

When you've lived with hearing loss for years, your brain essentially "forgets" how to process certain sounds. While hearing aids restore access to these missing sounds, your brain needs structured retraining to make sense of them effectively. This is where LACE AI Pro becomes a game-changer for new hearing aid users.

Reason 1: Your Brain Has "Forgotten" How to Process Sounds

Hearing loss rewires your brain over time. When certain frequencies go missing, your auditory processing centers essentially go dormant. Hearing aids suddenly flood these areas with information they haven't processed in years, creating an overwhelming experience.

Think of getting hearing aids like receiving a new prescription for glasses, but more complex. While your eyes adapt to new lenses passively, your auditory system requires active retraining since hearing loss affects neural pathways in ways that vision problems don't. LACE AI Pro provides the systematic exercises your brain needs to rebuild these processing pathways.

Reason 2: Generic Training Programs Don't Work for Everyone

LACE AI Pro (Listening and Communication Enhancement with Artificial Intelligence) represents the latest advancement in auditory training technology. Unlike generic programs that use the same exercises for everyone, LACE AI Pro adapts to your specific hearing challenges and progress in real-time.

The artificial intelligence continuously monitors your performance and adjusts difficulty levels automatically. This means you're never frustrated by exercises that are too hard or bored by ones that are too easy. The personalized approach makes training more effective and helps you progress faster than traditional methods.

Reason 3: Speech in Noise Remains Your Biggest Challenge

The most common complaint among new hearing aid users is difficulty understanding speech in noisy environments. LACE AI Pro specifically targets this issue through focused speech-in-noise training modules that simulate real-world listening situations.

Research shows that LACE AI Pro can improve speech understanding in noise by up to 60%. The program trains your brain to separate important speech signals from background noise, making conversations in restaurants, family gatherings, and social situations much more manageable.

Reason 4: Natural Adjustment Takes Too Long

One of the biggest advantages of LACE AI Pro is its convenience. Each training session takes only 15 minutes and can be completed on your computer at home. The program offers flexible scheduling that works around your lifestyle, whether you prefer morning sessions with coffee or evening training before bed.

Traditional adjustment to hearing aids can take 3-6 months, but patients using LACE AI Pro typically see meaningful improvement within 2-4 weeks. This accelerated timeline means less frustration and faster return to confident communication.

Reason 5: You Need Professional Guidance Through the Process

At Port Jefferson Hearing, we don't just hand you the software and wish you luck. Our audiologist team provides professional oversight throughout your LACE AI Pro training journey. We monitor your progress, adjust your hearing aids as needed, and ensure you're getting the maximum benefit from both your devices and training program.

We use Real Ear Measurements to ensure your hearing aids are programmed correctly, then support that with LACE AI Pro training to optimize your brain's adaptation process. Dr. Martinetti's 35+ years of experience has shown him that patients who combine properly fitted hearing aids with auditory training achieve 40% better outcomes than those who rely on hearing aids alone.
