Sport is an important part of everyday life. If you are passionate about tennis, you don't want to stop, when he needs a hearing aid. But what needs to be considered when the small support in the ear is always with you on the court? In fact, it depends on which hearing aids are used, among other things.
Define your own requirements
Tennis is a ball sport that is played with a lot of power. Unlike running, there is no flow here. Each ball comes differently and the reaction to each ball must also be different. Therefore, it is important that the hearing aid can handle vibrations well. This is one of the requirements that should basically be met. Comprehensive advice from the hearing care professional is important in this context. Anyone who is generally very athletic should also mention this right away when looking for a suitable hearing aid.
Optimal protection of the devices must not be missing
In tennis, the body is in action and there is also a lot going on in terms of sweat. However, wetness and sweat are not the best basis for hearing aids to last long. Today's devices are actually designed to cope well with splashing water. Nevertheless, a lot of technology is processed in them that cannot handle sweat or a permanent wetness well in particular. After all, the devices have several openings where moisture can possibly penetrate as well. Damage to the finely crafted technology is pre-programmed. Often it is enough to wear a sweatband around the head and put it over the ears. Those who are very much active on the court should even look for special solutions that are ideal for athletes.
Secure the hearing aids with clips
A good tip is to look for special sports clips. These ensure that the hearing aids stay where they belong, even during very strong vibrations. In some cases, however, it is even recommended to refrain from wearing the hearing aids during the games themselves. Here, it should be tried out beforehand, without pressure, what feels good for the player.
