Would you get a Python Massage?

Pampering by…python? An Indonesian beauty spa is offering a massage with a twist – a python massage!

The python massage at the Bali Heritage Reflexology and Spa in Jakarta involves several pythons placed on your body.

Doesn’t sound too relaxing, does it? That’s actually the point – the adrenaline caused by the fear of the snakes slithering all over your bare body is said to have a positive impact on metabolism.

But don’t worry, the snakes are non-venomous. Hmm…

The python massage lasts 90 minutes and costs around $50.

From snail facials to python massages, we’re not sure we want to know what the next beauty trend is going to be!
