Many regions still restrict erotic massage, and this means that, in some places, paying to receive a Nuru massage or offering Nuru massage in exchange for payment might be legally problematic.
For those who want to explore without the danger, the 2010s saw a proliferation of Nuru massage kits burst onto the market allowing partners to experience Nuru massage with no legal risks from the comfort of home.
Techniques
The practice of Nuru massage begins with the massage therapist pouring the warm Nuru gel over both the client’s body and their own, this prepares the skin to glide without friction during the skin-to-skin contact that occurs during the massage.
A Nuru massage utilizes several different types of movement in a specific order to achieve the ideal experience.
- First the massage therapist will use light strokes for relaxation. Long flowing circular strokes with the palms follow and these serve to warm up the muscles.
- From there they will move on to gently kneading or squeezing to relieve tight spots before shifting to applying pressure to work out knots in muscles.
- After that the therapist will move on to gliding their body and hands along the recipient's skin in smooth even movements, possibly while adding more Nuru gel.
- Finally, the massage therapist might move on to more sensual or erotic touching depending on the client’s comfort level and interest.
Nuru massage can feel more intimate than other forms of massage due to its focus on synchronized breathing which can make the massage therapist and client feel deeply connected, and the positions utilized to administer the massage.
