For anyone into massages there might be one to avoid,or not depending on your trust in your masseuse/masseur. The procedure I'm referring to is an Egyptian massage called fiery towel. It starts out like most massages with oil being rubbed into you achy body,then several layers of towels are placed on your back with the top most one soaked in alcohol then set on fire. It burns for about a minute then is put out with a wet towel. Here's the part I don't get (other than being willingly set on fire) the aim of the fiery towel is to suck the moisture out of the body,but don't most massage procedures want to keep moisture in the body? It is not recommended for people with high blood pressure or kidney disease. I'll take a pass.
