New pedicurists have arrived in town. The latest in the spa treatment is dunking your feet into an aquarium where fish (Yes, fish!) eat away your dead skin.
Believe it or not, it is here. Fish are now cleaning our toes and legs and ankles. I saw it on travel channel and I saw it on news. Cambodia has spas where you can immerse your feet into a fish tank and they come out buffed and free of dead skin. Fish, mainly carp, work away on your tootsies and give you a tickling pedicure. And it is not some exotic thing; it is available in north Virginia as well.
As strange as it sounds it is a genius case of win-win IMO. Fish get food and you get clean feet. For anyone who has a fetish for tickles – it is a match made in heaven. Experiments are under way to see if fishies could help with psoriasis and other skin ailments. Who knew?!
However, the first thing I thought of when I looked at this - let us not use Piranhas!
