SNAKE MASSAGE, ANYONE?

Aiyoh!  What type of snake massage is this?

While still on the subject of snakes, I discovered that somewhere in this world there is a type of massage using snakes.  Honest to goodness!  I am not making this up.
It appears that the idea for snake massages originated in Israel.  It all started when a spa owner found that snakes slithering up and down her client’s spines (or other parts of the body) helped alleviate joint pain. Altogether six non-venomous snakes are used! The type of snakes used are California and Florida king snakes, corn snakes and milk snakes. How much does it cost to get one such massage?  About US$80.
