Dr. Fish - Fish Massage

While looking through one of the local Angkor Wat travel magazines left in our hotel room, I found an advertisement for Dr. Fish - Fish Massage.

It may not be worth a trip to Siem Reap in its own right, but if Dr. Fish comes to your town, be sure to pay him a visit.



This video tells it all.



Apparently, the fish are supposed to be eating the bacteria off your feet that normal soap and a little elbow grease can't get at. I'm not sure how true that is, but it does feel like they're getting at some microscopic callouses, sinking their minnow teeth into them and trying to take some crusty skin home. Far from painful, it's initially titillating and after a few minutes, quite soothing. Once again, a must do if you get the chance.
