SPA EXPO ATTENDEES CAN GET FREE MANICURES AND POSE FOR A PUCKER WITH A FISH!

New York City (September 14, 2008) - Asian Kissing Fish is combining fun and fashion at the Spa & Resort Expo & Conference this month in New York City. Conference attendees can stop by Asian Kissing Fish's booth and get treated to a free fish pedicure or manicure. Visitors will be encouraged to stay and pose for a pucker with a fish in their kissing booth to commemorate their first experience with the amazing kissing fish.

The conference will be held at the Javits Convention Center in New York City from September 21 - 22, 2008. This will mark the first appearance of the incredible kissing fish at an exhibition. People around the globe have been using the kissing fish for years to treat skin conditions and as an alternative to traditional pedicures. Today, fish pedicures are making a splash in the spa industry in the United States. Now everyone can take the plunge by visiting Asian Kissing Fish's booth, number 648, at the spa expo.

For nearly a decade, David Allen, founder of Asian Kissing Fish, hoped for a solution to his wife's eczema and psoriasis. When David learned about the Garra Rufa fish, it was serendipity. These tropical freshwater fish, appropriately called kissing fish because of the way they gently "nibble" at the skin, are renowned for their healing effects on a variety of skin conditions, including eczema and psoriasis. The fish lick away at the plaque that causes the red, flaky patches on the skin. The fish then release a small amount of Dithranol, an enzyme that rejuvenates skin cells. Dithranol is currently an ingredient of topical medications used to treat the effects of psoriasis.

The kissing fish have been praised for much more than their ability to relieve the effects of skin conditions. They are credited with increasing blood flow and aiding in relaxation as they gently exfoliate dead skin cells, leaving behind healthier, smoother looking skin. Far from being painful, the kiss of the fish feels like a micro-massage which turns into a pleasant tingling sensation.

Asian Kissing Fish is bringing the opportunity for everyone to experience the unique kissing fish for free, two days only at the conference in New York City. Place your business card at Asian Kissing Fish's booth, number 648, to receive a complimentary fish pedicure or manicure. Don't forget to get your picture taken at their kissing booth while you're there. Visit the Jacob K.
