Eighteen entries for the words a nuru evening leans on, from the glide and the sheet beneath you to the half sent ahead and the balance handed over at the door, one short page apiece.
Outcall is a visit that runs in one direction only: she brings the gel, the waterproof cover and her towels to your address, and you go nowhere at all.
The overnight is eight hours in which nuru never watches the clock: one price for a single client and therapist, with its own figures for couples and pairs.
The duration ladder prices nuru by length, therapists and guests: one client with one therapist runs from the sixty-minute rung to the eight-hour overnight.
Balance on arrival is the sum still due once she is inside, paid at the start in euro, in foreign notes at a figure agreed in writing, by card or in crypto.
A deposit is half the ladder price, paid ahead on seven kinds of nuru booking; cancel, and only the share of the fee your notice has already earned is kept.
Cancelling a nuru booking costs only what your notice has earned: nothing with a day to spare, half the deposit inside the last day, all once she sets out.
A false booking is one placed under a name that is not yours, from someone else's number or profile, or as a joke; it leads to a short internal note and may be reported to the police.
Forty to sixty minutes is the arrival window: what a therapist needs to reach any central Amsterdam address, one span for every district and every hour.
A WhatsApp booking is a request and its confirmation kept together in one written thread, with every agreed figure there to scroll back to.
The age gate is the click that stands before this site opens, and it states the one age rule every nuru booking keeps: twenty-one or over, for everyone.
Nuru is a Japanese massage technique defined by its medium, a warmed seaweed gel so slick that friction nearly vanishes; the word means slippery.
Nuru gel is a clear, unscented, water-based gel thickened with seaweed extract, warmed before use, rinsed off with water, and nothing like massage oil.
Kawasaki is the Japanese city between Tokyo and Yokohama whose bathhouses nuru names as its birthplace; on a massage menu, the word is a claim of lineage.
Soapy is the bathhouse technique carried in lather and warm water instead of gel, spent mostly in the shower, softer than nuru and priced on the same ladder.
Glide is movement across skin made nearly frictionless by gel, and in nuru it is the quality a careful session keeps steady from first minute to last.
The sheet is the waterproof cover a therapist spreads over the bed before any gel is opened, so the mattress and the room's own linen stay untouched.
Four-hand nuru is a booking of two therapists for one client, charged at double the single hour through to a full night, always secured with half in advance.
Temperature in nuru means the warmth of gel, skin and room together, the one condition the technique cannot lack and the one a guest can prepare ahead.
