Do all hearing aids work the same way?

No. Hearing aids work in many different ways to provide the needed and desired speech signals to the listener.

Some hearing aids deliver sound through the air, some deliver sound through bone conduction. Some hearing aids use FM signals, some use electro-magnetic signals (T-coils). Most hearing aids use digital technology, although some still use analog technology...some hearing aids use noise reduction technology, others don't! In brief, there are dozens of varieties and alternatives in the way hearing aids work! To be sure you get the best hearing aid to couter your particular hearing loss, a visit to your best local audiologist is essential.
