Nibbling fish (Garra Rufa) perform a kind of fish pedicure: they gently nibble off dead skin cells from feet and hands, which softens the skin and promotes blood circulation, as they serve as a protein source and release special enzymes; this treatment is relaxing, but also controversial for hygienic and ethical reasons.
