The latest Manicure and Pedicure spa to hit Singapore, comes from Middle East. Highly qualified non-humane therapist.

Who are they? Fishes from Turkey. Some people named them as Doctor Fish. There are two species of fish Garra rufa and Cyprinion macrostomus. Other nicknames include nibble fish, kangal fish, and doctorfishen. These fish feed on the skin of patient with psoriasis; a common chronic, inflammatory skin disease characterized by scaly patches. The 'intelligent' fish only feeds on the affected and dead areas of the skin, and leaves the healthy skin to thrive. Enterprising Spa owners from all over the pool, hence, 'employed' these fish, it's main job scope is to help themselve with the 'buffet spread', nibbling and tickling customer's immersed hands or feet. An alternative to traditional Manicure or Pedicure Spa. The whole experience leaves silky and smooth skin on hands and feet envied by all.

Dermatologist, however, advise against - Fish Spa  as a treatment option, only temporary relief of symptoms. Usually patients revisit the spas every few month depending on individual reoccurring situation.
