Pedicure: To Fish Or Not To Fish?

3 Comments

Today, we are really proud to feature a blog post from London-based French journalist Raphaele Kranjcevic who has been testing Fish Therapy for Mindbubble.

Fish therapy is THE new upcoming pedicure trend that has been recently expanding through Europe. This far-fetched beauty treatment was developed in Asia and has since proved to be really efficient and seductive.

The concept is simple: plunge your feet into a plastic box full of Garra Rufa fish, and let them do the hard work.They will suck your feet, and nibble the dead skin away to give you the smoothest feet you’ve ever had.

The result is surprising: you feel relaxed, and your feet are soft and revitalised. Although it might sound a bit scary to have your feet ‘eaten’ by fish, the sensation is really pleasant.

You might feel nervous or sceptical right before you put your feet in the water – especially when you see them rising to the surface, full of excitement at the sight of food. The first seconds tickle a bit, but then it becomes really relaxing and enjoyable.

And don’t worry about the fish – they actually love it. The Garra Rufa fish, also called the ‘reddish log sucker’ or ‘Doctor Fish’, can be found in the hot springs of Kangal in Turkey.

They are best known for having the secret of skin regeneration, thanks to their active enzyme called diathanol. Having no teeth, the fish feed themselves by nibbling the dead skin, leaving the healthy skin to grow.

This method is not only used for feet beautification, it is also medically recognised as a cure against skin conditions such as psoriasis and eczema.

In these cases, the treatment is longer and more intense: the patient needs to be completely immersed in the water and renew the sessions every week. But in the long term, it efficiently reduces the skin damage.

Fish therapy is a fun way to take care of your feet, especially during winter when your feet are more sensitive to the cold and wet weather. The sessions are quick – between 15 and 30 minutes – and the price is affordable – between £8 and £30 for 15 minutes. It is also something you can do with your friends, and don’t worry you can keep your clothes on!

Places you can experience fish therapy for yourself:

Aqua Sheko – 14 Holland Street, High Street Kensington, London, W8 4LT

Zoola Fish – Camden Lock Village, London

Appy Feet Derby – Westfield Derby, Derby, DE1 2PQ

Appy Feet Manchester – The Trafford Centre, Manchester, M17 8AA

Appy Feet Sheffield – Meadowhall Shopping Centre (lower level), Sheffield, S9 1EP
