Matthew S
In their own words
Bespoke massage therapy in Lymington. I'm Matthew. I trained as a massage therapist at Colorado Springs School of Massage, graduating in April 2023, and started the first version of Pulse Wellness there before moving into a spa leadership role. I now run Pulse Wellness from my garden studio in Lymington. Every session starts with a conversation about what's actually bothering you, whether that's a specific problem area, ongoing tension, or something harder to pin down. I work through it with you: if the first approach doesn't get to the root of it, I'll adjust technique or focus during the session rather than sticking to a fixed routine.

Getting in touch
What's on offer
A 30-minute session focused on one specific area, ideal for a stiff neck, tight shoulders, or lower back tension. We'll talk through what's bothering you, then work that area directly rather than covering the full body. Best for a quick, targeted fix when you don't need a full session but want focused attention on one problem spot.
A 90-minute session for anyone wanting more time and space to properly unwind. We'll talk through what you need, then combine techniques to build a treatment tailored to you, whether that's deep tissue work, gentler relaxation, or a mix of both. This is the most comprehensive session on the menu, ideal when you want to properly switch off rather than rush.
A 60-minute session built entirely around what you need on the day. We'll talk through any areas of tension or discomfort, then combine techniques such as deep tissue, relaxation, or a mix of both to suit you. Ideal if you want a full-body session but aren't sure exactly what you need going in, we'll work it out together at the start.
CBD massage oil can be added to any session for those who'd like to include it as part of their treatment. I use a broad-spectrum CBD oil from Bristol CBD, a UK supplier who states that their products are third party lab tested and fully compliant with UK regulations. If you have any questions about the product before your session, feel free to ask.
Dynamic Cupping add-on. Cups are moved across the skin during your massage to help release tight, tension held areas. A different sensation to traditional massage, often used to target specific spots that feel stuck or stubborn.
Hot stone add-on. Smooth, heated stones are worked into your massage to help ease tension and encourage deeper relaxation. A lovely way to add extra warmth and depth to any session.
A gentle, hands-off energy therapy designed to help you unwind and reconnect. During this 30-minute session, you'll lie fully clothed and relaxed while gentle energy work is channelled to support balance and calm. Many clients use Reiki as a way to pause, breathe, and reset amidst a busy schedule. Perfect as a standalone treatment or as an add-on to another therapy, Reiki Flow offers a quiet, restorative pause in your day.
