AceShowbiz - Stella Maxwell has stunned fans by having a massage while surrounded by snakes.
The model is one of the busiest names in the fashion industry, having walked in the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show last month, and recently posed for the likes of Moschino and The Kooples.
It seems Stella has now discovered an unusual way to relax, as she has shared photos on her Instagram page showing her undergoing a snake massage.
" 'Entwine in interspecies love to remember your wild divine nature. Get present. Embrace power and embody pleasure' - Serpentessa," the 28-year-old captioned her post. "Thank you Serpentessa for the amazing experience."
In one snap, Stella is seen holding a number of snakes, while in another, she lies on a massage table with what appears to be two boa constrictors on her.
Serpentessa, also known as Gretchen Brown, is based in New York and has been living with serpents for over 20 years. She holds workshops and performs with snakes too, and according to her website, a snake massage lasts for an hour and 15 minutes and costs $297 (£232).
"On the table, the boa constrictors' soothing undulations dispel any fears or concerns by toning and stimulating your body's vagus nerve, releasing endorphins and oxytocin. These feel-good hormones relieve stress, create pleasure, and increase your emotional, physical and cognitive resiliencies in today's stressful world," the site states.
Even though many would not be able to bear the thought of having snakes on them during a massage, a number of Stella's celebrity pals shared positive messages on the post.
Fellow Victoria's Secret star Elsa Hosk wrote, "Amazingggggg," while model Ruby Aldridge commented, "My favourite post of yours."
