Nuru massage: meaning and what to expect

A Japanese body-to-body massage with slippery gel.

Published 18 October 2026

What it is

Nuru comes from Japan. The masseuse covers both bodies in a slippery, odourless gel and massages with her whole body. It usually takes place on a waterproof mat.

Because it needs a mat and a shower, nuru is mostly offered as incall.
