Fish Spa Treatment

Kai Thai Wellness Spa in Parkhurst’s Own Miracle ‘Doctor Fish’

Kai Thai Wellness Spa in Parkhurst presents the “Fish therapy Spas” which are the first fully equipped fish spas in South Africa. The Garra species or ‘doctor fish’ is the name given to the two species of Garra Ryfa and Cyprinion fish, which are essentially little dermatologists in a non-medical sense. This harmless species of fish originate in Turkey, living and breeding in outdoor pools of Turkish spas, where they have been used for hundreds of years to feed on the dead and affected skin of patients presenting with medical conditions such as psoriasis, eczema and other dermatological complaints. After your treatment at the Kai Thai Wellness Spa in Parkhurst, the healthy tissue is left to grow normally. These incredible fish are also helpful for removing of skin smear and aging cortex, improving blood circulation and maintaining healthy skin.

Generally spas of this nature are not meant as a curative treatment option but only to alleviate symptoms, with many patients revisiting the spas on a regular basis. Having said this, in some cases, patients have experienced a complete cure of Psoriasis! Of course, due to the unpredictable nature of this disease, this is not a guarantee. For everyone else with healthy skin, the Fish Spa therapy at Kai Thai Wellness Spa in Parkhurst is a wonderful escape from the pressures and stresses of day-to-day living. You can dip your feet in the water and allow the Garra Ryfa to work their gentle magic on your tired feet, hands and even body.

Prices:

• 15 minutes – R70
• 30 minutes – R140
• 60 minutes - R280

Please note that:

• These fish do not bite (they don’t have teeth); they suck, scrape and gently nibble away dead skin cells, so the treatment doesn’t hurt at all! But, it does tickle!
• Kai Thai Wellness Spa in Parkhurst maintains an exceptionally high standard of hygiene and keeps our tanks in pristine condition. Furthermore, the fish cannot transmit diseases, so there is absolutely no risk of you contracting any ailments from the water.
• We here at Kai Thai Wellness Spa in Parkhurst do supplement our fishes’ diet with other foods. Not only does it take a lot of resources and effort to transport the Garra Ryfa fish safely from Thailand, but we also have a great respect and appreciation for our little ‘miracle workers’ and what they do for our clients. Consequently, we go to any and all lengths to make sure they are well fed, comfortable and healthy.
• There is no need to book your Fish Therapy Treatment at Kai Thai Wellness Spa in Parkhurst.

We here at Kai Thai Wellness Spa in Parkhurst feel privileged to bring this ancient and successful treatment to South Africa, where stress and anxiety is such a pervasive problem amongst our people.

Kai Thai Fire Treatment

Ancient Healing Art for Modern Day Ailments at Kai Thai Wellness Spa in Parkhurst

Kai Thai Wellness Spa in Parkhurst offers, for the first time in South Africa, Fire Massage: an ancient healing ritual that dates back thousands of years in Southeast Asia. How does it work? The therapist dips his/her foot into a pot of aromatic oil and then holds it over an open flame, which leaps up in response to the dripping oil.

The heat of the fire warms the oil on his/her foot, which is then applied to the body to massage out tension, pain and stiffness. The combination of heat, pressure and the fragrant aromas of the oil is what makes the Fire Treatment at Kai Thai Wellness Spa in Parkhurst so effective in providing relief for a wide array of muscular complaints. Benefits of this ancient healing art include:

• The relief of muscular pain and stiffness caused by stress or more serious conditions such as Fibromyalgia and chronic back pain.
• The promotion of blood circulation, which is excellent for people suffering from high blood pressure, fatigue, chronic headaches and neuralgia.
• The enhancing of a general sense of well-being and relaxation, which serves to release tension and improve your emotional and spiritual state.

Please note that:

The therapists who perform the Fire Treatment at the Kai Thai Wellness Spa in Parkhurst have received a high degree of training and are incredibly experienced at what they do. While fire is actually used in this treatment, the entire practice is carried out in a completely controlled environment and your skin is never actually exposed to an open flame. So don’t worry about getting burnt! Furthermore, due to the specialized nature of the Fire Treatment, you do need to book your session with the therapist at the Kai Thai Wellness Spa in Parkhurst in advance.
