What better way to get rid of that pesky dry skin on your feet than plunging them in a tankful of hungry nibbles fish? Garra Rufa are a species of fish that gently nibble and bite away dead skin, leaving you with perfectly soft and smooth tootsies.
I am glad I've experienced it, twice.
Ah, ticklish! Ticklish! 
This pedicure is certain to bring a smile to your face.Rest assured, these inch-long fish have no teeth!

Within seconds the feast began!
*controlled giggles*And 30 minutes later, I walked away with happier feet.

Thank you Doctor Fish!

This fish spa looks very tempting to me, and I've never have tried anything close to that before. :-D :-D

Tried with my sisters back home, errr... I think d place was called 1Borneo or something. Yeah, ticklish at first but so fun seeing the fish bite2 your legs/toes... hehehe
But the spa we went to kan, didn't have many fish in the kolam... and they all seemed to favor my sister's feet... cos only a few nibbled at my toes... grrr... >:o >:o

You finally tried the Fish Spa. Ticklish er. :D
Yeer, I don't think I like to go for fish spa! Cos those fish biting other people's legs then go bite yours?
And not to mention ticklish - how you stand it?!
Give me a proper spa anytime, haha! Something that does not involve fishes! LOL!!
I wonder what happens if they replace those fishes with piranhas? Hahaha!

leches?? =-O =-O =-O
My wife and me liked it very much as we did it once in One Utama or Mid Valley in 2008. It's a good laughing therapy, too for the first five - ten minutes.
Only heard afterwards that Singapore and some US states banned fish spas because of health risks. So not sure if it's because of the fishes or because of the other persons feet (as they can't put chlorine in this water, otherwise the fishes would die)
I've been wanting to try it, but...but...the thought of those fish crowd around my feet....I feel the panic attack already heheh
