Your local Prescott stores are filling with red, orange and yellow decorations, which can only mean that fall is almost here! Whether you’re looking forward to carving pumpkins or running through a corn maze, hearing aids are a great addition to your favorite autumn activities.
Let’s take a look at four ways these technologically advanced devices can improve your fall.
1. Listen to the Sounds of Nature

There’s nothing like that sharp, satisfying crunch when you step on a fallen leaf. You might have missed this crisp fall sound if you’ve lived with untreated hearing loss for a few years. Hearing aids pick up and amplify environmental noise to bring you every crunch and gust of wind that makes fall so beautiful.
2. Join in on Parties
Halloween parties and backyard autumn get-togethers are an essential part of fall. But those crowded events can also create difficult listening environments filled with simultaneous conversations and distracting background noises. When hearing loss makes communication difficult, hearing aids can step in to bring enjoyment back to every event.
These helpful devices collect and amplify essential speech to help you understand those around you. Some devices even have advanced sound processing that locates the direction of the person you’re speaking to and amplifies their voice while quieting distracting background sounds, further allowing you to focus on time with your friends and family.
3. Enjoy More Energy
Untreated hearing loss can zap your energy. The extra effort it takes to understand the people around you may leave you with nothing left to enjoy all your favorite fall activities. By removing some of the mental load of communicating with hearing loss, hearing aids restore your energy, allowing you to savor every maze, party and pumpkin-centered dinner.
4. Safely Participate in Fall Sports
Whether you like to play or just watch, a game of touch football in Pioneer Park is a classic fall pastime. Hearing aids can bring extra joy to your next match by amplifying plays and ensuring you never miss the score.
If you’re ready to hear every crunchy leaf, family joke and football score this fall, contact Prescott Ear, Nose, Throat & Allergy to schedule a hearing aid consultation with one of our trusted specialists. If you already have hearing aids, bring them in for a service or repair to ensure they’re ready for this season and the next!
