Crawling Snakes Massaging Your Body – Stress Inducer or Stress Reducer? (Israel)

Who had ever thought that the notorious, shuddering and spine chilling snakes would be used for warming up the spine and other body parts. The slithery and slippery snake crawls on the body and people let it crawl for $80. This reptile therapy initially available in Israel, is now relished in many places worldwide.

Strangely enough, there are people who like the feel of non-poisonous reptiles sliding down their body. The kneading affect produced by the crawl is thought to bring pleasure and is considered excellent in relaxing the muscles. Heavy snakes are used to put weight on the body and give a better massage by crawling. Face is handled by small snakes. For those who can’t handle the thought of crawling snakes on their body, rats and rodents are available to do the job. Are they any better? Obviously those who want to reduce stress and seek a treatment for the purpose, will find the treatment stress reducing. The treatment might work but again is this the only option available? I find the idea quite creepy and I am left thinking if this treatment is a stress reducer or a stress inducer. What do you think?
