London Ear Centre offers a variety of auditory training services and implants to help rehabilitate your hearing, with everything from tinnitus therapy to auditory brainstem implants available at our specialist hearing clinics in Marylebone, Stepney Green, Canary Wharf, and Orpington in Kent.
LACE® Auditory Training
Auditory training can help you to develop skills and strategies when your hearing levels are inadequate, just as physical therapy can help to rebuild your muscles in the even of physical weakness or injury. LACE® auditory training (Listening and Communication Enhancement) is a home-based, self-paced adaptive auditory training programme that’s designed to help improve your listening and communication skills.
LACE® auditory training can retrain the brain to comprehend speech up to 40% better in difficult listening situations, such as:
- In noisy restaurants
- When in the company of rapid speakers
- When in the company of competing speakers
LACE® auditory training may benefit people who struggle to hear speech when there’s a lot of background noise, regardless of whether their hearing is otherwise normal. At London Ear Centre, we are a certified provider of LACE® auditory training, and routinely offer it as part of our hearing aid fitting appointments, in addition to standalone auditory training sessions for those with clinically normal hearing.

At London Ear Centre, we also specialise in providing high-quality medico-legal assessments, reporting, and auditory training rehabilitation related to hearing and balance impairment. Our team of experts are highly experienced in carrying out comprehensive diagnostic audio-vestibular evaluations to accurately identify, verify, and manage impairments of the ear that may be the result of occupational disease or accidental trauma.
All investigations carried out at London Ear Centre take place in fully compliant clinical environments and in strict accordance with BSA guidelines.
Sometimes, hearing aids aren’t the most suitable option, and they might be of limited benefit for people with some types of hearing loss. If this is the case for you, an auditory implant may be the best solution for your hearing needs instead. Read on to find out more about the different types of auditory implants.
