Fitness for diving

Assessment of fitness for diving

It is of the utmost importance to have your fitness for diving assessed by an ENT specialist, as diving places enormous strain on the ears and sinuses. If these organs are unable to compensate for the changing pressure conditions at depth underwater, this can lead to significant damage. We therefore strongly advise against undertaking dives without a prior medical examination by a specialist.

Have your physical fitness for diving assessed

During the diving fitness examination, we follow the criteria of the German Society for Hyperbaric and Diving Medicine. These are precisely defined, internationally recognised standards.

The examination includes a detailed medical history, an assessment of hearing and the sinuses as well as nasal airflow, a lung function test and various pressure measurements.

We provide expert examination and advice on all matters relating to diving. Furthermore, following the appropriate examination, we will issue you with your diving fitness certificate. This will allow you to dive with peace of mind and experience the fascination of the underwater world at first hand.

If you would like to obtain your diving licence or are planning a diving holiday, we can professionally assess and confirm your fitness for diving. Please get in touch with us to arrange an appointment at our practice.
