DOCTOR FISH
Skin-Renewing, Stress-Relieving, All-Natural Foot Therapy
Among modern spa treatments, one of the most intriguing and enjoyable experiences is the Doctor Fish therapy. But it’s not just about the charming little fish — this treatment also supports skin health, stimulates blood circulation, and offers deep natural relaxation.
At Serenity Thermal, SPA & Wellness, this unique therapy is carried out under hygienic and safe conditions, ensuring you can relax both physically and mentally.
What is Doctor Fish and How Does It Work?
Known scientifically as Garra Rufa and popularly referred to as “doctor fish,” these small fish gently remove dead skin from your feet. They have no teeth; instead, they work by softly sucking and stimulating the skin, exfoliating only the dead cells on the surface. This is not just an aesthetic cleanse — it’s also a therapy that promotes circulation and stimulates reflex points.
The result: smoother skin, lighter-feeling feet, and a refreshed mind.
Scientific Benefits & Natural Therapy
Skin renewal: The gentle touch of the fish triggers the skin’s natural regeneration process.
Microcirculation: Stimulation of the foot’s blood vessels boosts circulation.
Stress reduction: The sound of water and the sensation of the fish calm the nervous system during the session.
Foot health support: Provides relief for conditions like eczema, calluses, and flaking.
Reflexology-like stimulation: Light activation of nerve endings in the soles creates a feeling of relaxation throughout the body.
Hygiene is Our Priority
At Serenity, Doctor Fish sessions follow a personalized hygiene protocol. The pool water is filtered and UV-sterilized for every guest, and feet are cleansed with special antiseptic solutions. This ensures the therapy is not only enjoyable but also completely safe.
“I Can Never Get a Pedicure Again!”
Guests at Serenity describe the Doctor Fish experience not just for its physical benefits, but also for how shareable and memorable it is. Often posted on social media as “the sweetest spa memory,” this session has become a favorite among both adults and children.
Typical feedback after sessions includes:
“It tickles a little at first, but then it’s just peace…”
“The fish didn’t just clean my skin, they cleansed my soul…”
