Spanish Fish Spa!

I will post a hand image later today to fulfill my daily hand-obligation... This post is all about one of the most bizarre beauty treatments I have ever experienced.

FISH SPA!

Last month I paid 30 euros to have a hundred or so little Middle Eastern fish (Garra Rufa) nibble the dead skin on my feet at a "Fish Spa" in Spain. The price included about 45 minutes of nibble time, followed by a foot massage, and a mini-pedicure. I had to use a flash when photographing the experience which made the little fish scatter a bit but you get the idea.

  2. Did it tickle? I had a regular pedicure once and I couldn't stand it. My friend said I was extremely entertaining...

  3. Yes - It felt like a thousand teeny tiny fish lips were making raspberries on my feet.
