Fish Spas

[Carly85]

Hey girls,
I was wondering if anyone has had a fish spa? I am new to Singapore and have seen pictures of these, myself and a friend are wanting to go have one. Does anyone know where you can have one and how much they are?? Also any feedback as in if they work and if you also need a pedicure/manicure after you have one.. Thanks

There are a few of these Fish Spas around run by a company called Kenko - if you google the name you will find their web site. They have them at Singapore Flyer, Underwater World at Sentosa, Singapore Zoo and Tanglin Road.

I went to the one on the corner of Tanglin Road and paid for a combo offer they had on at the time which included 20 mins with feet in fish tank and a 10 min back massage - don't bother with the massage - I thought it was awful and hurt like hell. I believe we paid $38 but I think it's about $28 just for the Fish Spa for 20 mins.

I can't say I noticed any difference to my feet/legs after dangling them in the tank for over 30 mins (it was quiet and no-one asked us to move), but the experience was fun and I'd do it again with visitors when they come over.

If you are in need of a pedicure, I would suggest you spend your money on that as the fish don't really do the same job. I think you would have to go ALLOT to actually notice a difference.

We did actually go for the smaller fish though as recommended by the reception lady as it was our first time. There are 2 other (bigger) types of fish which may take off more skin but it looked really scarey.

Thanks for the info. I will look up Kenko I think I will try as it could be a bit of fun and is not that expensive.
