PTSD Therapy

Undersea Warriors is a 501(c)3 non-profit charitable organization whose mission is to aide Servicemembers, Veterans, and First Responders with a PTSD, Anxiety or Depression diagnosis by providing therapeutic scuba diving and marine conservation activities across the United States.

This treatment is backed by a research study completed by Johns Hopkins University and the Cody Unser First Step Foundation. In 2011, Dr. Adam Kaplin and Cody Unser completed a scuba research study on ten paralyzed Veterans suffering from PTSD by having them complete their Open Water Diver scuba course certification. Over the four-day course, the Veterans completed several dives and noticed an 80% reduction in their PTSD, Anxiety and Depression symptoms.
