Trend Hunter's very own Senior Editor Jaime Neely gives us her top picks for peculiar extreme healing services.

If you're looking for something a little bit more adventurous and outlandish than your standard message you can try out service like a slimy snake message that uses snakes to release the tension in your muscles. Or you can try a [heat treatment](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hyperbaric-oxygen-therapy) that literally lights your body on fire to combat stress and depression.
