What Nuru massage is
Nuru is a body-to-body massage using a slippery, odourless gel traditionally made from nori seaweed. It originated in Japan, and the name comes from nurunuru, “slippery”. In Thailand it is offered by small private venues, usually with a shower and an air mattress in each room, and sold by duration. For a full comparison with Soapy, read Nuru vs Soapy.

Before you go
Confirm the duration and total price at reception, pay there rather than in the room, and remember that staff can decline or stop a session at any time. Read the safety, etiquette and legal guide.
