There is an issue around the world that annoys many individuals who are wearing hearing aids, they can’t swim with them. Taking a hearing aid into the water spells trouble. Imagine the thought of ruining your hearing aid simply because you forgot to take it off.

There is good news out there. This issue has been resolved! Siemens, maker of several types of hearing aids, decided to step up to the plate and create the Aquaris waterproof hearing aid.

This is a new way at using hearing aids because, it is waterproof. We are talking about jumping into a swimming pool, swimming for hours then getting out without ever having to worry about if you removed your hearing aid.  This is a great achievement in the hearing world.

The Aquaris is not affected by water, dust or shock. It is built with a very tough exterior, cutting-edge advancements and it is truly the first waterproof hearing aid on the market. It is IP57 certified, which means the device is water (one meter depth for thirty minutes), snow and sand resistant.

The design is also made with a custom soft ear mold designed to keep it comfortable while you are swimming.

That’s not all this machine can do. Many patients have reported that is not the fact that they can swim or get it wet that is appealing about the product – its more that if they are active, sweating is not an issue. I know its not as glamorous, but consider that most have to take their hearing aid out when they sweat – not an ideal situation.

Since it is sweat proof, going walking, biking, exercising and more is less of a hassle. You do not have to sit and worry if your hearing aid is getting ruined from the workout nor do you have to worry about yourself getting lost because you had to remove your hearing aid. Both issues are resolved using the Aqauris.

Finally, the Aquaris also offers the innovative Best Sound Technology for excellent clarity and can connect seamlessly to Tek and miniTek wireless enhancement systems.
