Your First Nuru Massage: What to Expect
A first Nuru massage is, above all, a calm and guided moment. Nuru massage is a Japanese sensory practice, performed body to body with warm body oil. You do not need to know anything or do anything: the therapist leads the whole session.
How a session unfolds, step by step
Arrival: you are welcomed discreetly and choose the length (30, 60 or 90 minutes).
Preparation: the room is private and warmed, with premium cotton towels and ambient music.
The massage: the therapist uses her body to glide over yours, with slow, fluid movements made smooth by the oil.
End of the session: with time to return to your normal pace, without rushing.
What does the word Nuru mean?
In Japanese, “nuru” means “slippery”. It is the silky texture of the oil that allows fluid contact between bodies and gives the technique its name.
Tips for your first time
Arrive a few minutes early and without rushing.
Tell the therapist what you like and what you prefer to avoid. Your comfort is what matters.
Start with a 60 minute session if you are not sure.
