Healing Through Scuba Diving
Want to experience weightlessness and have a therapeutic experience using SCUBA? Physical disability scuba therapy is just that. Our PADI instructors have been trained to be adaptive support divers and instructors through PADI, the worlds leading scuba instruction organization, to provide you with a warm water experience that is highly therapeutic.
Underwater, the human body is nearly weightless – which reduces swelling, takes the pressure off joints, and reduces back and neck pain.
A 2011 study conducted by Johns Hopkins University found, that “veterans with spinal cord injuries who underwent a four-day scuba diving certification saw significant improvement in muscle movement, increased sensitivity to light touch and pinprick on the legs.”
