Don’t need to travel so far, find any pond containing Gambusias or oher onnivorous minnows, and just sit still.

Samantha Grayston, 38, from Kent, said she returned from her three-week trip to find the "doctor fish" treatment had worked and boosted her confidence. 
For deeper muscle problems, you need to sit in a tank of piranhas, the surgeon fish.

Actually, surgeonfish have spiny, razor sharp spurs just in front of their tails...nasty little critters when they feel threatened...

Reminds me of my hernia surgeon, contemptuous blank stare, yellow tail, etc.

Why doesn’t it just return after a period of time passes?

"Why doesnt it just return after a period of time passes?" Because the head sturgeon provides a gar-antee ;-)

I have psoriasis, and I’ve had dozens of small fish do the same to me while floating in lake Allatoona.
They eat me up, and it actually helps.

Suffer isn’t the word. I’ve had days when my skin is literally burning all over. Doesn’t do much for your self esteem either.
Thank God for Embrel, it has been a miracle drug for me.

I wonder if humans are brain food for fish?
