Scuba diving offers disabled people an extra dimension. All disabled person's self esteem will dramatically improve from diving. The challenge of diving is a tremendous stimulant for a person’s mental condition. It is fantastic to hear about the positive results a person can achieve, like improvement of motor functions, muscle tissue development and retention, co-ordination and respiration. Scuba diving also provides real freedom of movement for those who are, "tied to a wheelchair". For many, scuba diving has proven to be invaluable rehabilitation therapy and has clearly aided in the process of "mainstreaming" back into society.
