Doctor Fish
Dr. Fish |
Where it is found?: The fish species are found in the river basins of China, Turkey and the Middle East.
How it started?: Back in the 1917, an unknown shepherd dipped his wounded leg into the water with these little fish measuring a little less than 4 inches or 9.7 cm long. It nibbled off the dead skin fron the wound. Miraculously, his wound healed.
How it works?: These fish consume dead skin cells directly off the bodies of people, leaving the healthy skin to grow revealing smoother skin. The process is free pain and does not hurt. Rather, you will feel a pleasant tingling sensation on your feet.
Fish Spa: Our "fish spa" makes no medical claims. However, the nibbling massage of the doctor may cause one to feel relaxed and rejuvenated.
Facts: There is a symbiotic relationship between man and the doctor fish. This means they equally benefit from each other. The doctor fish finds its nourishment from the unwanted dry/dead skin cells it nibbles off the human.
Possible benefits: Physical rejuvenation, release from fatigue, great enjoyment and recreation.
