Something Fishy is Afoot at the Marlowes Shopping Centre!

14 December 2010

The ultimate foot spa with a difference is arriving at the  Marlowes Shopping Centre this month and it promises to have its shoppers 'fishing' for compliments!

Dr Spa Fish will hold its official opening at 11 am on Thursday 2nd December 2010 offering a unique walk-in pedicure experience which involves live fish nibbling away the dead skin on feet.

The Garra Rufa or 'Doctor Fish' work through the build up of hard skin on the heels and soles of the feet getting rid of any dry skin, but leaving the healthy flesh untouched. Originating in Turkey over 400 years ago, this unusual treatment is the latest craze to hit the beauty world and is expected to be popular with Maidstone's shoppers. The toothless spa-fish are seen as an alternative to pumice stones and foot scrubs, leaving the feet feeling soft and smooth.

Bradly Carter, managing director of Dr. Spa Fish said: "We are extremely pleased to have the opportunity to share our unique pedicure experience with the people of Hemel Hempstead. It is a fantastic way for adults and children alike to relax and have fun, why not come along and enjoy the experience as a family."

The 'natural pedicure' gets rid of hard or flaky skin on the feet; effectively assists with treating psoriasis and eczema; improves blood circulation in the feet and also relaxes the body to reduce fatigue."

The Garra Rufa tanks are specially fitted with UV light filters and the water is filtered through Dr Spa Fish's unique eleven stage filtration system, which cleanses the water between each treatment and ensures it is completely germ free, without any harm to the fish.

Bradly continues: "Our fish are sourced from breeders with a constant healthy stock of Garra Rufa fish.  Dr Spafish takes pride in sourcing only the best of these very special fish and only provides true breed Garra Rufa."

Centre Director at Marlowes Shopping Centre, Vince Williams said: "It is so exciting to have the latest global beauty treatment coming to Hemel Hempstead, and just in time to pamper those feet for the party season!"
