What is a Nuru massage? The first thing to note is that it is unlike traditional massage techniques, including other types of erotic massage. The main difference is that Nuru massage is a massage with full body contact because the therapist slides up and down your body. This is why another term for this kind of treatment is body slide massage. Instead of using their hands, the therapist performs a body to body massage, incorporating their breasts, thighs, feet, buttocks, and other body parts. The massage is performed on the client’s front and back. People who’ve experienced it say that the extra stimulation from feeling the therapist’s body press against theirs is a massive turn-on.
In place of regular massage oil, a special gel is usually used. Nuru massage gel is made from the same type of seaweed used in sushi, and it’s odorless, colorless, tasteless and deliciously slippery. To spice it up even more, some massage establishments use chocolate or even rum and other alcohol-based edible lotions. Nuru massage can take place on a bed, a massage table or an air or rubber mattress. The slippery gel makes the experience virtually frictionless and is what makes Nuru massage different from other types of full body massage.
When considering what is a Nuru massage and what makes it different from regular therapy, another aspect is that with Nuru massage both the masseur and client are naked. A Nuru massage typically has a happy ending, and it can be enjoyed by men and women of any sexual orientation.
As with other erotic massages, you can bring a partner, making it perfect for a steamy date night. You can also book two massage therapists at once for double the fun.
Nuru massage is from Japan, the country that pioneered underwear vending machines for kinky purposes and love hotels.
With Nuru massage, as in many cases, necessity is the mother of invention. After World War II prostitution (narrowly defined as vaginal intercourse between strangers) was banned, Japanese brothels turned to soapy body washes, massage, and other creative alternatives as a way to legally conduct sex work. It is because of this that some types of brothels in Japan are often referred to as ‘Soaplands’.
More specifically, Nuru massage originated in Kawasaki City, between Tokyo and Yokohama.
What does Nuru stand for? It may seem like an acronym, but the word ‘Nuru’ itself is a Japanese word that means slippery. Nuru massage certainly lives up to that definition.
Almost every part of the body is positively affected by such treatment, and Nuru massage has many of the same benefits as regular bodywork. Although it’s not recommended for treating serious injuries, it will relieve muscle tension and soreness. Like any other traditional massage technique, it has an amazing ability to clear the mind and take away feelings of stress. It will leave you feeling happier and more relaxed. Because of its deeply intimate nature, it also increases social connection. Like massage oil, the gel will moisturize your skin, making it softer and less prone to dryness.
Basically, Nuru massage is like an erotic massage on steroids, meaning that if you’re looking for a very special, sensual experience, it’s worth trying. Like other types of massage, it’s very effective in treating anxiety and depression, premature ejaculation, chronic stress, and poor circulation. The other physical benefits such as an improved immune and digestive system make booking an appointment even more of a no-brainer.
Well, yes, but it all gets cleaned up in the end, so you’ll leave your session feeling fresher than a daisy. A Nuru massage begins with a bath or shower to prepare the skin for the gel application. The session also ends with a bath or shower, so you won’t have to worry about the gel sticking to your clothes as it’s very easy to wash off. Typically your massage therapist will bathe you, creating even more of a break between the ordinary, mundane world and the amazing ritual of Nuru massage.
So should you book in for a Nuru massage ASAP or give what may seem like an odd, exotic trend a miss? We think that Nuru massage is here to stay as it’s becoming more and more popular right around the world. It’s also extremely pleasurable so we recommend you give it a go at least once. Getting naked and slippery with a beautiful stranger whose aim is to surprise and delight. What could go wrong with that?
