The Amazing Doctor Fish Pedicure

This is cute but I dont think am ready to have one. Fish doing pedicure has come to Kenya and it is a completely new concept to most of us so what is this doctor Fish pedicure...?

Fish spa therapy: What is it?
During a treatment customers
place their feet in tanks of warm
freshwater containing dozens of
toothless Garra rufa fish, which
are about the size of minnows.
They are also known as doctor or
nibble fish. They suck and gently
nibble away at dry and dead skin.
The end result is said to leave
your feet feeling refreshed and
healthy.

Where did it begin?
Garra rufa are found naturally in
the river basins of the Northern
and Central Middle East, mainly in
Turkey, Syria, Iraq and Iran.
The pedicures are popular in Asia
but have already been banned in
some US states for health and
safety reasons. The RSPCA also
has concerns about the use of
fish in foot spas.
