If it's the fish pedicure that you are referring to, it is my understanding that you can't sterilize the tanks because the chemicals would kill the fish. So to me, the pedicure is unsanitary.

ewww.... that makes sense. Maybe it's salt water? I must investigate further.

I wonder how effective it is at removing dead skin though? I really think I'd like to experience it.

They had them all over Thailand and people loved them. I was too grossed out.

Re: Anyone ever go to a fish spa?
I recently did this on my trip to Cancun. It tickled a lot. Was an interesting experience but I would not pay to do it again. While my feet were a little softer after I didn't think there was a noticable difference.

Re: Anyone ever go to a fish spa?
I remember seeing this on the news awhile back. I think it's illegal, at least in NYS.
I remember them saying about closing places down in Queens.

Re: Anyone ever go to a fish spa?
I freak out if a fish swims near me in the ocean or lake. NO WAY would I ever put my feet in a tank of fish. The thought gives me a panic attack!

I completely agree! I was freaking out in the ocean in Ft. Lauderdale last summer because I could see and feel all the little fish swimming around me!!!!
