Mostly people go for a massage to relax and definitely not to be scared out of their wits.

However, this is not the case of Bali Heritage Reflexology and Spa in Jakarta, where the customers experience just the opposite if they opt for the python massage, Metro.co.uk reported.

The Indonesian snake spa offers a unique massage treatment, which involves several pythons to be placed on the customer's back.

This is done as the movement of the twisting snakes and the adrenaline triggered by fear is said to have a positive impact on the human metabolism.

The reptiles used are said to be non-venemous and the brave clients have to pay around 30 pounds to have them crawl over their bodies.
