| has anyone seen this before? i was shopping in the metro centre today and there's a new shop, which just had loads of glass tanks lined up full of fish, apparently its a spa treatment from turkey and the fish nibble all the hard skin off your feet and leave them baby soft. £10 for 15 minutes of nibbling. |

| For this reason, up to 14 states in the US have banned the use of fish for spa treatments and in Canada the treatment falls under the individual provincial health units. Salon owners are working with health authorities to reduce risk by changing the water in-between clients, using filtration systems or even replacing the fish with each pedicure, but at a price of approximately $2,500 for the fish, this is not likely to be economically feasible. A second safety concern is the use of look-a-like fish. Some salons are substituting the real, more expensive Garra Rafu with cheaper fish called "chin chin". Not only are clients not getting what they pay for, but these fish actually grow teeth as they age and are potentially more dangerous because they can break the skin and therefore readily spread infection. Clients seeking a fish pedicure should be very wary of impostors. To date, there is no evidence that infections have been spread from client to client through fish pedicures, but health authorities fear that in an unregulated market, the possibility is very real. The only way to be safe is for clients to purchase their own Garra Rufa and keep them well fed with a regular diet of dead skin.
