mona&lisa - the hearing acoustician for women in Karlsruhe

Some of us are familiar with it: you are in a room with lots of voices and noises and it is difficult to localize and assign them. This is more common in women than in men. But why? "Women have a particularly sensitive sense of hearing and are particularly good at perceiving speech with all its nuances and emotional overtones. However, due to the differences in auditory processing, women find it more difficult to recognize the directions from which sound signals are coming and therefore also to focus on one voice when there are several background noises," explains Reinhard Sorg from mona&lisa. With this in mind, he founded mona&lisa and helps women to train their hearing and support it with the right hearing aids.

From hearing exercises to hearing systems - mona&lisa hearing therapy for the women of Karlsruhe

Reinhard Sorg is the owner of mona&lisa Hörakustik, which won the Freiburg Innovation Award in 2021. After opening in Freiburg in December 2019, the Karlsruhe location followed in October 2020. But what exactly is mona&lisa? "With this method, intensive, personal advice and support from the mona&lisa hearing aid acoustician and the associated hearing systems, which are precisely tailored to the requirements of women's hearing, are essential. Equally important are the specially developed mona&lisa hearing exercises: They are used, for example, to improve directional hearing," explains Reinhard Sorg. In order to be able to analyze the status of hearing, mona&lisa hearing therapy is based on different steps:

• Consulting and analysis
• Ear training with listening exercises
• Hearing tests to monitor success
• Selection and fine-tuning of hearing systems

Mona and Lisa, the two virtual friends, are part of the hearing therapy, providing entertaining moments and guiding through the exercises that many women can identify with.
