Fish Spa @ Limb's Care

Limb's Care, a newly-opened centre for fish spa, foot masssage, pedicure and manicure. I attended the opening ceremony today with free trials and being entertained by the grand lion (and dragon) dance.

Located at 787A Upper Serangoon Road Singapore 534655, you may also make reservation at: 6281 0282

A centre with its focus on one of the most neglected part of our body - the feet. Hey, it's got a nice ambience. The place is divided into 3 sections - the first when you step into the centre (apart from the reception) is the two 'ponds' for fish spa. One containing the smaller-sized fish, which I think should be a little smaller, if not similar size to guppies. The other one contains the bigger fish.

The second section is for foot reflexology (and also back massage). The third part is for manicure and pedicure.

The lights are dimmed and the ambience is simply soothing. A good place to relax the body and the mind.

Here's one of the 'ponds' with the bigger fish. I had wanted to try fish spa a long time ago. I finally had my chance today. The feeling was like....receiving mild electric shocks (kneading feeling) when the fish started 'charging' at your feet the moment they are immersed into the water. It was also ticklish at the beginning. But once you have adapted to the initial tickles, you could actually relax and enjoy the senses that you would still feel at your feet. You would quickly settle down. It was also entertaining to see which part of your feet was most 'delicious' to the hungry ones in the water.

Oh yes, try immersing your hands into the water and the fish will find their way to nibble on them as well!

Today's simply a 'feet exposure' day. You see pairs of legs more than anything else. Hahahaha. Everybody enjoying the little massage.

I wonder what's so delicious about our feet. But in any case, we are different creatures and have different taste buds. I tell you..the sensation is simply...SHIOK!

Getting ready for the lion dance. What a great sight. Eight of them, auspicious numbers.

Officiating the opening of the centre.



So, the fish are actually toothless Turkish spa fish, called "Garra Rufa" and widely known as Doctor Fish. They gently nibble-off the dead skin areas, revealing your smoother and healthier skin. It is a way to exfoliate your feet.

Wonder if we can throw our whole body in there for a thorough cleansing?
