If you have heard of the Nuru massage but are not entirely sure what it entails, you are in the right place. This Japanese technique has become the most requested in our catalogue — and for good reason: it offers an experience that no other type of massage can replicate.
Where Does the Nuru Massage Come From?
The word "Nuru" comes from Japanese and means "slippery". Its origins trace back to Japanese massage parlours in the 1960s, where it was developed as a full-body contact technique designed to dissolve the distance between two bodies.
The Seaweed Gel: The Secret Ingredient
The defining element of the Nuru massage is its gel. It is made from Nori seaweed — colourless, odourless and completely harmless to the skin. Its extremely slippery consistency creates a layer between bodies that eliminates friction entirely.
This gel does not stain, does not irritate and is easily washed off with water. It is also documented to nourish the skin and improve hydration for hours after the session.
How Does a Nuru Session Unfold?
- —The session begins with a relaxing shared shower.
- —The warm gel is applied to both bodies.
- —The masseuse uses her entire body to glide over the client.
- —The movements are slow, rhythmic and fully coordinated.
- —The session ends with the included finishing techniques.
