Nuru is a silky, sliding erotic massage style that uses my fully naked body to massage and stimulate yours. Unlike most other ‘body’ work, with Nuru, which directly translates to “slippery”, whereby we are both completely nude and covered in an ultra-slippery gel. Then I use my entire body to rub, stroke, and grind against you.
While it traditionally originated in Japan, thanks to its focus on full-body contact, Nuru has become global and become popular as foreplay and a profoundly erotic experience without the need for intercourse. Instead, touches and sensations are often centered around the erogenous zones. Still, it is a full-body experience for both of us, using everything from my breasts and shoulders to thighs and butt to maximise skin-to-skin contact and heighten sensations. All with silky, slippery assistance from the unique substance that makes it all possible.
Traditionally, a gel lubricant made with nori seaweed and other natural extracts was used to achieve just the right of slickness, but the practice has spread globally. This is especially good for anyone worried about skin irritation or allergies – remember you will be covered in this sumptuous goo! so you will need to shower afterwards.
The Benefits of Nuru Massage
Nure massage? Built-in slip and slide? What other reasons do you need to try this out? But it gets even better, and there are a lot more benefits to Nuru than meets the eye:
- Lightens the Mood – Let’s get this out of the way early – while erotic massage can be wildly sensual, it can also be a great way to let go of pretence and enjoy a laugh with your partner. We’re both naked and slip-sliding all over (and sometimes off) the bed. You should both feel comfortable acknowledging the awkwardness and indulge in the goofs and giggles anytime it happens. Laughing together is a great way to release any tension or embarrassment and ease into the experience without any worry about what you look like.
- Helps with Stress Relief – Speaking of tension, massage, in general, is one of the most holistic practices we can use to improve our health, both physical and mental. Skin-to-skin contact, like massage, cuddling, and sex, releases oxytocin which can help reduce stress and trigger a more incredible feeling of well-being.
- Encourages Blood Circulation – Massage has been proven to increase blood flow. The variety of different strokes and movements of Nuru’s slippery massage, from light brushes of the breasts or fingers to the firmer friction of shoulders and thighs, can help blood flow more freely to the skin and muscles of the body. But do you know what blood flow also leads to? Arousal.
- Turns You On – Yes, having a naked body rubbing all over you can take some people from 0 to 60 all on its own, but Nuru is more focused on the all-over body experience. It’s a slower process that heavily focuses on stimulating erogenous zones but is more about the journey than the destination. So it gives those who might take longer to rev their engine time to catch up.
- Creates a Deeper Intimacy – Trying something new can take a lot of trust, and each new adventure builds that trust and intimacy to even higher levels. There’s a reason massage is not just erotic. Still, simply the act of touching and massaging is a huge component of many sex therapy practices.
