Fish Pedicure

Fish pedicures are getting very popular in the D.C. area thanks to John Ho, who owns the northern Virginia Spa, Yvonne Hair and Nails Salon. John and his wife Yvonne Le have said that more than 5,000 people have tried his innovative idea so far. According to John, anyone who wants to have nice feet, this is the best treatment. The treatment is simple: as the small fish swim in a hot water tub that doesn’t support plants or aquatic life, they would eat whatever food is available, so they devour the dead skin eagerly. Customers may be a little bit intimidated at first, but once they tried it, they just love it! Some say that it has been the best pedicure they ever have had, and some just ended with a big laugh once the fish start doing their job. Ho, who wanted to have something unique to replace the common use of razors to scrape dead skin, came out with this fantastic idea and is now thinking about offering a network of "Doctor Fish Massage" franchises.
