Rather than cures FOR SCUBA related aches, pains and symptoms, what are some things that SCUBA cures?

I know from personal experience that SCUBA really helps low back pain. Get down around 60 or 75 feet and it's better than a good chiropractor.

I also hear that a few whiffs of enriched air (the more oxygen the better) will cure a headache and according to hangover.net, "Nothing cures a hangover better than a deep deep scuba dive." :D

SCUBA diving has even saved the lives of those not even associated with getting wet. For example, how many of our bosses :lmao: and irriatating co-workers :lmao: would still be alive if we divers didn't escape to tropic seas and relaxing isles from time to time? :D

Any other's?

Good one! AND, you may not have enough left over for food further enhancing the health benefits with a natural way to loose weight (not eating as much).

So, diving is a good form of dieting. Hmmmm, what would be a good name for it? The Divers Diet?

The wise words of AC/DC come to mind.....posted below in part.

Well, I'm upper upper class high society.
God's gift to ballroom notoriety.
And I always fill my ballroom, the event is never small.
The social pages say I've got the biggest balls of all.

Some balls are held for charity, and some for fancy dress.
But when they're held for pleasure they're the balls that I like best.
My balls are always bouncing to the left and to the right.
It's my belief that my big balls should be held every night.

AC/DC Lyrics
