After a hard day's work your feet can take a rough ride. But if numerous creams and pumice stone sound a little too boring there is a much grimmer method you can choose to remove dead skin from your feet.

A traditional remedy is to take a bath with flesh eating fish. Popular in Japan and other parts of Asia, the idea is to sit with your feet in a pool of doctor fish, who love nothing more than to eat flaky bits of dead skin while leaving all the meaty, bloody stuff behind.
