[Choose #2] I have a broken back. Hate to lodge any bubbles anywhere. But we’ll worry about that later. Let’s go diving!
|
|
|
[Choose #1] Diving has fixed me up many times. Weightlessness and hyperbaric pressure is great for the back and the sinuses. Also, at depth you are receiving Oxygen therapy, even on air (high PPO2).

|
[Choose #2] When I dove Tobermory, I hurt my back the first day. The only time I wasn’t in pain was when I was in the water. Luckily, I had sympathetic dive buddies to help me with my equipment and into and out of the water.
|
|
|
[Choose #1] My experience is with my body I feel much better after diving. I also breath high percent mixes when able. My back and knees always feel better for days. Who needs the FDA, it works for me.

[Choose #5] only idiots take chances diving when not feeling well
|
|
|
|
|
[Choose #1] Of course, it depends on the injury- no diving with lung injury, etc.
|
|
|
[Choose #5] I don’t believe any of this...
|
|
|
[Choose #5] Honestly I don’t know, it would really depend on how bad the injury is (I never had serious back/breathing/tension issues since getting certified). Ya know, survey answers are cool and all but I’d be interested in what DAN has to say on this subject.

[Choose #1] A workout is a workout, either in the gym or humping dubbles over the rocks. You can injuire your self a lot of ways, so stay active and in shape.

|
[Choose #1] depending on the injury and the extent of the pain...
|
|
|
[Choose #2] I am involved with teaching disabled veterans (DVSP) how to SCUBA dive, and I see first hand how it helps them both physically and mentally.
|

|
[Choose #1] I have major damage to my lower back and diving has been a way to take pressure of it and reduce pain for days...
