Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/03/2016 -- Spas are ideal destinations for individuals who want to pamper themselves, relax, and have some of their body parts taken cared for. Fish spas have been quite popular in the recent years. However, it seems that the risks they provide outweigh the advantages.
Risk of infection causes fish spas to be banned in 14 states in the U.S. Fish spas have been extremely popular as they provide services that can help clients clean off the dead skin cells of their feet. The entire process is relaxing considering that clients only need to soak their feet in a bin filled with fish.
Fish spas are almost everywhere from shopping centres to tourist areas. Many people find it relaxing and rewarding to have their feet cleaned up and have their calluses removed.
According to the director general of the Public Health Ministry's Health Services Support Department, Somchai Pinyopornpanch, there are 1,341 fish spas that have been registered with the Interior Ministry. However, there are an estimated number of 3,000 spas that are in operation and are unregistered.
Fish spa treatments involve soaking the feet into a water bin filled with the doctor fish, which is otherwise known as the toothless garra rufa fish. Within seconds, the fish will be nibbling the dead skin tissue from the feet of the customers.
The session usually lasts for about 30 minutes. The treatment is generally perceived to be relaxing and harmless. Unfortunately, this assumption may be completely wrong.
According to the president of the Dermatological Society of Thailand, fish spas are not absolutely risk-free. Assoc Prof Nopadon Noppakun reveals that when fish spa operators fail to maintain hygienic standards in their business, they can potentially place their clients at a great risk. He also added that infection can be caused not just by the fish, but also from the water.
There are many fish spas that do not regularly change their spa water on a regular basis. Water can be contaminated with bacteria and fungi, which may enter into the tiniest cuts on the skin.
Individuals who have calluses often find fish spas extremely relaxing and beneficial. However, there are also other callus removal methods such as the use of an electric callus remover.
One of the most popular electric callus removers is offered by Naressa. This product is widely believed to be easy, safe, and effective to use in buffing calluses and making the feet smooth and clean.
