Nuru comes from the Japanese word for “slippery,” and that’s exactly what a nuru massage is: a full-body slide massage using a special gel so slippery it makes the whole thing feel weightless. It began in Japan and has become one of the most sought-after erotic massages in Bangkok — and at Bangkok Bunny, it’s one of our signatures.
How a Nuru Massage Works
There’s no oil and no bath. Instead, your masseuse coats herself and you in nuru gel — a clear, odourless, water-based gel — then slides her entire body over yours on an air mattress. Because the gel removes almost all friction, her skin glides against yours with a sensation that’s impossible to describe until you’ve felt it. It’s full-body, skin to skin, and completely different from a hands-only massage.
What Is Nuru Gel Made Of?
Traditional nuru gel is made from nori seaweed and is prized for being ultra-slippery, tasteless and easy to rinse off. It’s cool to the touch, which is part of what makes nuru feel so intense. We cover this in more detail in our nuru gel guide.
What to Expect at Bangkok Bunny
You’ll shower first, then move to the nuru room and its mattress. Your masseuse warms the gel, applies it, and begins the slide — slow at first, building as it goes. Like every session here, a nuru massage is full service: it finishes completely, at one fixed price, with nothing extra asked for at the room.
Nuru vs Soapy
People often mix the two up. The short version: soapy is warm and bath-based, nuru is cool and gel-based. We compare them properly in soapy vs nuru.
