Body-to-body is the broad name for full-contact techniques performed with oil, and is the family that nuru and soapy belong to.
Body-to-body, often shortened to B2B in listings and searches, is less a single technique than a category. It names a style rather than a single method, and it is the family most full-contact names on a menu belong to. Within this house's closed list of techniques, three names share that principle: body-to-body itself, nuru and soapy. What separates them is the medium.
Plain body-to-body is performed with warm oil, which gives grip as well as glide and allows a pace that can be slow or firm. Nuru replaces the oil with a slick gel that behaves more like water, and suits a smoother, continuous movement. Soapy uses a lather, traditionally with a bath or shower, and is the wettest of the three. A buyer choosing between them is choosing the feel of the medium; the category is the same.
Erotic oil massage, another name on the menu, is sometimes grouped with body-to-body because both use oil. They are listed separately because they are booked for different reasons, and clients who want to compare them will find each on its own page, including the erotic oil massage page.
Oil is the one medium that needs a thought about linen. The therapist brings a sheet to protect the bed, but a large towel of the client's own is useful, and a shower afterwards is standard. The room should be warm, since oil cools quickly on skin in a draught.
The technique is priced on the ordinary ladder, which for one client with one therapist runs from the single hour up to three hours at three times it. Booked by one client with two therapists, the format is usually called four-hand and costs double the one-therapist hour; the four-hand entry covers it. A first booking carries the usual deposit, so a single hour is confirmed with half of it. The body-to-body service page describes the technique at greater length.
