fish pedicure

27 Mar 2011 21:00

Just wondering if I can get the fish pedicure while on my hols, had it done in glasgow and its the best my feet have ever felt, I know the fish come from Turkey , so might be a idea for someone to start this

You can get it done for free - just go and stand in the shallow water off the beach and the fish will come and nibble your feet! :lol:

Several Bars do the Fish pedicure useing bigger fish and while the fish go about doing their job you can look down and choose your lunch to be served with a portion of chips and a side salad. :wink:

Thre was a recent scare that the fish could pass and carry certain germs but I guess the ones in the sea could as well.

I dont see how the fish could carry aids as they havent any teeth and therefore dont draw blood, its merely a suction type movement that removes the dead skin, had it done myself in Chester and it was very relaxing,amd the tanks are all filtered so fresh water is passing through them all the time and debris removed(if the fish left any)

My thoughts exactly!

Much as I'd love to have a go at this (they say it's brilliant) I'm just not brave enough to physically watch fish nibble away all the dead skin uuuuurrrrgh!

I agree, the very thought makes me sqirm. When I am in the sea and there are quite a lot of those little fish I am outta there and back on my sunlounger sharpish!

So you can sit in a restaurant/bar and have it done whilst eating your lunch? say chips and errrrr....FISH! ugghhhh!

Me & my hubby went,
he was scared but he loved it too, if you closed your eyes it was just like jet of bubbles or a cat licking your feet, it tickles but never hurts,thought if we had it here and the fish came from turkey might get in on hoilday too
Once you have it done you would go back its just the idea of the fish ect,

The other half suffers from Psorosis and when he goes in the sea he has his own shoal of fish, they take away the dry areas and where this has happened in the past the Psoriosis has never come back in those areas. These little fish have drawn blood but I think it's just because of the areas they and nibbling. he wishes they would swarm him when he lies down and then it would be gone altogether.
