Doctorfish

Fish cures for psoriasis... I think not, but it it would be very useful for ongoing management of the psoriasis condition. I will be in singapore in july and will try this treatment.

Recently, a new alternative method of psoriasis treatment is with the use of live fish called "Doctorfish" (or Garra rufa). This practice of using fish to treat itchy skin was first used in the small towns of Kangal and Sivas in Turkey where they are largely found in the area. The spa at Kangal has been a popular psoriasis treatment centre since 1988.People with this skin disorder have been flocking here to have their infected skin nibbled at by the doctor fish. These doctor fish live and breed in outdoor pools of some Turkish spas but now they are pretty popular in the Asian countries like Japan, Taiwan and most recently, Singapore. These fishes live in warm waters of high temperatures of around 36C. The water condition does not produce enough nutrients for the fish with voracious appetite so they feed well on dead scabby skin of psoriasis sufferers. These fishes will not nibble their healthy skin which will be left to grow. The saliva in the mouths of the doctor fish is the vital element in the treatment . In addition, the selenium- rich waters of the spa are also helpful in the treatment of psoriasis too. However this type of treatment can provide temporary relief only but is not a cure for the skin disorder. It is reported by psoriasis patients that it does help and thus doctor fish spas have sprouted in many countries like Japan, Germany or Singapore.
