A German hair salon is stretching the boundaries of who or what can be a masseuse.

The Haar Mode Team salon in Dresden is now offering neck massages performed by Monty, the owners pet python.

Monty Python sits around the customers neck and gently pulsates in a manner that is probably ssssoothing if youre not snake-phobic like Indiana Jones.

Although a python tends to kill its prey by wrapping around it and squeezing it to death, Montys owner, Falk Dohler, tells Ruptly TV that his python masseuse has been trained to be slightly more gentle.

The 4-foot snake is 90 percent muscle , making him well-suited to the task, according to UPI.com.

Still, its no stretch to say customer Nadine Knect was slightly apprehensive about the massage.

In the beginning, I was a little bit afraid, she told Ruptly in the video above. I thought the snake would be cold. But I should say, no, it is warm and it is a very pleasant feeling when it pulsates, when it massages the neck.
