Common questions
What is nuru massage?
Nuru massage is a full-body Japanese technique performed with a slippery, odorless gel originally derived from nori seaweed. The therapist uses body-to-body contact to deliver continuous, gliding pressure that relaxes muscle tension. In Istanbul it is offered by independent therapists as a wellness session, typically 60–90 minutes.
How do I find a verified massage therapist in Istanbul?
Browse this directory by district or by technique. Every therapist is listed independently — there is no agency intermediary — and each profile passes a 72-hour editorial review covering identity and professional credentials. You contact the therapist directly via WhatsApp to arrange a session.
What is Thai massage and where can I get it in Istanbul?
Thai massage combines acupressure along the body's energy lines with assisted, yoga-like stretching, usually done on a floor mat in loose clothing. Several verified therapists across both the Anatolian and European sides of Istanbul specialize in it. Filter the directory by 'Thai' to see who is currently active.
Can a massage therapist come to my hotel or home?
Yes. Most independent therapists in the directory offer out-call sessions to hotels and residences across Istanbul, in addition to in-call options. Share your district and preferred time when you message, and the therapist confirms availability and arrival window directly.
In which areas of Istanbul are therapists available?
Coverage spans both sides of the city: the Anatolian side (Kadıköy, Ataşehir, Üsküdar, Maltepe, Pendik) and the European side (Şişli, Beşiktaş, Bakırköy, Beylikdüzü). Each profile lists its primary district and whether the therapist travels for out-call sessions.
Are profiles and prices shown in English?
This English edition gives the overview and guidance; individual therapist profiles and guides are maintained in Turkish for accuracy. Prices are never published on the platform — you confirm the session directly with the therapist, which avoids deposits and intermediary fees.
