12 Unique Spas You Might Just Find are the Most Relaxing Picture this: You’re lying on a massage table, but instead of the masseuse’s hands, snakes slither along your back. They weave through your hair, nibble on your eyelashes, and curl around your toes. You can get one of these odd massages on a farm in northern Israel.

Visitors spend about an hour in the dim caves, relaxing on lounge chairs amid kitschy decorations of seahorses and mermaids, listening to calming music, and breathing in the salty air. The environment is supposed to ease asthma and digestive issues. Kids make a beeline for the “saltbox,” where they can play with brightly colored beach toys. 4. Chiang Mai Women’s Prison Spa, Thailand   You don’t need to have seen episodes of Locked Up Abroad to be...
