Doctor Fish Spa


Originating from the Turkish Springs of Kangal, the 'Garra Rufa' is a fresh water, hot spring fish. Members of the carp family they are harmless and toothless bottom feeders generally living off various planktons and algae, however, living in waters of up to 43 degrees centigrade food sources can at times become scarce and as a result these unique little fish have over centuries adapted to happily feeding on the unwanted dead skin cells of bathers swimming in the hot springs.

Also known as 'nibble fish' and 'little dermatologists' the Garra Rufa have been used for centuries for medicinal purposes all over the Far East, but it wasn't until the 1960's when two German brothers happened to stumble upon one of these hot springs that the unique healing powers of these fish were brought to worldwide attention. They enjoyed the tickling sensation of the fish so much that they returned to the pool day after day, and one of the brothers who had suffered from skin complaints began to notice a dramatic improvement of his symptoms.

Garra Rufa fish have been proven to aid in the healing process of many infamous dermatological conditions such as Eczema and Psoriasis.

 

What's It All About?

The doctor fish experience is a natural ‘sub-aqua’ pedicure originating in Turkey and practiced all over the Far East. The Garra Rufa fish remove your dead skin from your feet by gently sucking and nibbling at the dead skin cells of your feet or hands. They also stimulate reflexology points on your feet, this can help to relax and improve blood flow and circulation.
 
Our doctor fish are very effective at helping to improve the condition of your skin. Whilst removing the unwanted dead skin from your hands and feet the fish secrete a substance called Diathanol which is an enzyme well known to improve the regeneration of skin cells.

Is It Hygienic?

Definitely, the Garra Rufa fish do not transfer diseases to humans. Prior to treatment your feet will be pre-rinsed and each person is given their own individual fish pod. Sterilized water constantly flows through each pod to ensure that the process is as hygienic as possible. At Gem's Nails & Beauty we pride ourselves on maintaining an unrivalled standard of hygiene and customer care, our Spa tanks are state of the art and every effort is made to ensure our fish and equipment receive the best level of care by our qualified staff.

Does It Hurt?
 
Not at all, (they have no teeth!) the doctor fish gently remove the dead skin cells by nibbling and exfoliating with their oval shaped mouths and causing no damage to healthy skin cells thus allowing new skin cells to develop and existing skin to heal quicker. The initial sensation can be described as an intense tingling sensation, this feeling will subside and can become quite relaxing as the Garra Rufa begin to work their magic on your feet and hands!

How Much Does It Cost?

A 15 minute treatment at Gem's Nails & Beauty costs just £10. Please call in to the salon or telephone to make an appointment as this treatment is extremely popular.
