There are several major hearing aid corporations, including ReSound, Oticon, Phonak and Starkey.

ReSound is one of the largest hearing aid suppliers in the world, with units available for purchase in over 80 countries. The ReSound Alera made history in 2010 by being the first wireless hearing aid that didn't require a streamer worn on the body. The company also offers an impressive line called ReSound Unite of hearing accessories including microphones, phone clips, remote controls and TV streamers to complement their hearing aids.

Phonak is headquartered in Switzerland and has been in business for over sixty years. They became even more powerful when they acquired the Canadian hearing aid manufacturer, Unitron in 2000. The merge has allowed the company to produce an even greater range of products. One of their most popular models is the Lyric. It requires zero handling and stays inside the ear 24/7.

Starkey hearing aids are custom made. The brand is a leader in water proof technology for hearing aids. They offer a wide range of digital, invisible and wireless models for both adults and children.

With so many different brands, models and styles of hearing aids there is something available to bring better sound to almost anyone who has suffered with hearing loss. A knowledgeable hearing specialist will advise patients as to the best type of devices for their specific type and degree of hearing loss. It's important to find a hearing aid provider that deals in a wide range of brands to ensure a good selection of brands and models is available.

There is no need to be ashamed or embarrassed to need hearing aids. Modern devices are so small most people won't even notice. Don't let old stigmas keep you from hearing all life offers.
