Tantric or Nuru Massage: Which to Choose?
The difference in a few words: tantric massage works with breath, presence and the flow of energy through slow, conscious touch; Nuru massage is a Japanese body to body practice with warm oil, more fluid and sensory. Both relax you, but the experience is different.
