Risks from Nuru

Hi.. I just had a nuru massage. Both of us were nude. She used nuru gel on both on my body and her body. The massage included body to body rub. Also there were some genital to genital (to be specific she would rub my gential (only the base) with her vaginal area. But my head were never inserted into her vagina or rubbed. Just below the head was rubbed with her vaginal). during the session, some more gel were spilled on her hand. etc. I did put my finger in her.. (I have no cut).

I read this http://www.medhelp.org/posts/Herpes/Encounter-at-Massage-parlour-Nuru-massage/show/2037958 and seems genital and genital may have some risks?

What are my risks for contracting HIV and STDs?

Thanks in advance.

Because transmission must occur inside the body, shielded from air , light, temperature etc.
"might occur" in your posted link is  based on far fetched theories but not on real life facts. I "might" win the lottery twice and get struck by lightning, but that is a "theory". It is not provable fact.
If no penetration occurred, as you state in your post, then you had no risk.

Why did the post say genital or genital rubbed or grinding may have a low risk?

I have no risk because I had never inserted into her vaginal (penetrated)?

Thanks
