This story has been, er, floating around for the past year or so, as every few months another state approves the process of fish pedicures.
Jacquelyn Martin, AP
I swear I'm not making this up. Tiny carp- like fish, called "doctor fish" nibble on the dead skin and stuff on your feet and toes and deliver a pedicure.The main reason states don't allow this procedure is a question of sanitation. It seems in order to comply with most regulations, the fish need to be boiled for 15 minutes, which while that may be the beginning of a tasty entree, it certainly does little to make the tiny pesci-tologists able to do their job.
At this time, only Virginia and Ohio have allowed this procedure, so it is thought that Virginia may become a vacation destination for the foot fanatic.
Try explaining that to the neighbors without sounding like a pervert.

I'm waiting for the alligators that do eyebrow waxing.
HAHAhaha...Finally, something I can participate in... I'm in Ohio, so bring on the fishy-type-pedicure-kinda-thingy... yeah.. ahem..any idea where these can be acquired?..or should I Google it? ;)
I bet they don't even make faces when they look at feet. Except happy little fish smiles. Good fishies.
Uggghhh, I can't imagine ...
Do they sell the fish afterwards to like umm poor little school kids ?
That line about boiling them cracked me up. I have this..I'm not sure I could handle it though.. mu tootsies are too ticklish
Say what you will, but that's better than the wolverine treatment that they use for jock itch.
No You DIDN'T... Even just that picture... eeewwwwwww...
No, but that color is so wrong on you Crotchety. Just saying.
Have a terrific day. :)
I'm glad you brought this up DOM. I didn't want to be the ONE to tell you.
The answer to your question? YES.
HA!
My hemmoroids are finally under control thanks to the miracle of hermit crabs.
I'm still trying to get past "Winky Twinky." Not what she said. Just "Winky Twinky." Reminds me of what I used to call my dinky when I was a wee lad.
DON: I could be flattered...BUT.. Dinky--is NO where close to where I'm coming from...so GET OVER IT!!! We can still be friends...take a deep breath...erase those bad early memories..... AND embrace a whole new experience!!!! Come on...give it a try........ ;)
is this the recipe for a pedicure or fishys-soise ?
Seems a litte silly when you can get one of the Asian when to use the scraper and get that crap off in 5 minutes. ICK!
omg. there is no f-ing way i would do this...
wow, yikes.
Let me just add...that for some of you guys out there with gnarly-ass feet, it'd take a hell of alot of hungry fish.
Just sayin'...

{P.S. Nice blog!}
@ Nanny Goats: I'd pass on that. A unibrow is better than "gator face" which is what happens when the gator takes off half one's face.
@ Winky: Ohio is one of the 2 states where it is allowed, so let the nibbling begin.
@ Lady Sarcasm: Very good fishies.
:)
@ Dani: Fish sticks maybe? Part of the school lunch program.
@ Dizz: Mine too. It would be embarassing to pee while getting a pedicure.
@ Chris: I don't even want to know about that.
@ Carl: I wouldn't. It sounds too disgusting.
@ Sandee: No I am reminded of the time I painted my finger nails. That was weird.
@ Quirky: Thanks. I thought so.
@ Douglas: That is a very green solution.
@ Don: I can only assume that is not her real name.
@ Twinky: LOL
@ Swirl: A bit of both.
@ Lauren: The problem with the scraper is cuts and injury. That is why some prefer the fish.
@ Stacie: Sure, if Brad Pitt were to nibble on your toes, you'd be fine, but a carp is creepy?
@ Ms. Thirty Something: True dat
Do they do hooves?
I must be weird, but I would love to try this. Guess I'll have to plan my next travel to the east coast.
Is it just me, or do those fish look just a bit too eager?
Nice blog lift. AS if fish nibbling your toe jam isn't bad enough, the water would have to be COLD. I'll pass.
I tried that with piranha.
Man, the government inspectors have NO sense of humour.
don't go to eat in Chinese restaurants in Ohio or Virginia
What if you have warts on your feet? And the fish then get warts on their mouths. Can you give them to other fish and then to other feet? It sounds like a very risky business to me...
@ Pricilla: I'm not sure, but it's worth checking into
@ Me-Me: Should be interesting. Let us know how it goes.
@ Mincognito: Very eager
@ Megry: It sounds bad all around
@ Mike: Piranha would be more thorough
@ I Hate: Good advice in any state.
@ Kate: I don't even want to imagine.
I think I might puke hugely were a fish to start nibbling on my toes. And I'd be afraid I'd have a tickle attack and mistakenly stomp on one of them, which wouldn't be good.
Why can't we do anything fun in California?
Don't answer that...
Hey WT, you were reading my mind; I have actually never had a pedicure - tho I am in dire need. And with summer almost upon us here in O-H-I-O, it has been the hot topic the last couple weeks among my female coworkers. They have been insistent that I join them in their next group pedicure session. I think now I am ready t0 accept the invite and offer to bring along the fish...
I don't even want to have my toes nibbled on by someone I'm going to be...ahem...intimate with.
Hmmmm...too much information.
Ok, try this, I don't want my toes nibbled on by someone I'm not going to eat afterwards.
Uh-oh, that didn't come out right.
Ok, let's just say a plain old pedicure is good enough for me. No nibbling.
Living in DC, I have several womenfolk friends who've enjoyed the fish pedicure. I'm intrigued except that I think it would tickle a lot.
I saw this on TV a couple weeks/months ago.
The guy said it tickled.
Still, it's gotta be better than a vasectomy done by lobsters, right?
@ Mary: You know someone is going to kill some fish.
@ Kirsten: I blame Arnold. He terminated all your fun
@ Phillipia: Sounds like a party
@ Marie: TMI
@ David: I couldn't do it
@ Janna: Much better
I've been off the grid for a while crotchety but I'm back. This is soooo gross.
This looks like Gulliver with piranhas to me. Is that weird?

Even in the most sexually liberated and self-satisfied of nations, many people still yearn to burn more, to feel ready for bedding no matter what the clock says and to desire their partner of 23 years as much as they did when their love was brand new.
The market is saturated with books on how to revive a flagging libido or spice up monotonous sex, and sex therapists say “lack of desire” is one of the most common complaints they hear from patients, particularly women.
