The so-called hot spring fish convalescent students should not lie in fish therapy, but in hot springs. Because hot springs contain high content of minerals, they have a certain health care effect on people's body and skin, but this is only the role of hot springs, not fish therapy places.
Second, it is unsanitary for ordinary small fish to do fish therapy.
Ordinary small fish do fish therapy, on the one hand, it is not very hygienic, and it will bite guests if you are not careful. If some patients with infectious diseases such as AIDS are treated with fish at the same time, the chances of mutual infection will increase.

If a friend with a wound on his skin is bitten by a fish, the fish mouth is likely to be infected with bacteria, and if he bites someone else, it will lead to cross infection. Patients with skin diseases not only have more surface dander, but also blisters under the skin, which are more susceptible to infection after being broken.
