Built from livedexperiences

A space that exists from a shared dream.

Somanai began with a recognition that the people doing the most for the world rarely have somewhere built to restore them. Somewhere private, considered, and grounded in real science. So we built it.

THE ORIGIN

Born from a newkind of insight

Somanai was born from lived experience and shared conviction. In different fields, and through different paths, our founders kept seeing the same pattern. Strong, capable people doing important work, with no real place to recover. Over time, even the strongest start to wear thin, lose their patience, and find their thinking less clear.

The answer was always the same. Real wellness cannot come from the mind alone. The body has to be part of it too. Somanai was created to bring both together, in one space, designed for both at once.

THE FOUNDERS

Meet Alena and Sabine

Somanai was founded by two women who have spent their careers helping people perform at the highest level without losing themselves in the process. They built Somanai together to bring everything they have learned, about the body, the mind, and what real recovery looks like, into one space.

Alena Nyvltova

Co - Founder

For more than twenty years, Alena has worked with high-performing people across healthcare, government, military, and private practice. Her focus is on helping the body and the mind return to balance, especially in people who live under constant pressure. Her approach is precise, calm, and deeply attentive, built for results that hold.

Sabine MacDonald

Co - Founder

Sabine has spent her career in corporate strategy and executive leadership, working internationally across industries. Her own experience at the top reshaped how she understood wellness, and what she believed it should make possible. Her novel, The Whispering Butterfly, tells that story. Somanai brings it to life.

OUR APPROACH

Designed for the body and mind as one

At Somanai, the body and the mind are cared for together. When the body settles, the mind clears. When the mind quiets, the body softens. Every detail of the lounge, the methods we chose, and the pace of every session was built around that connection. You do not have to choose between the two. At Somanai, we believe the body and mind are inseparable.

THE PHILOSOPHY

Recovery is a practice, not a luxury

We do not believe in escapes. We believe in recovery. The kind that lets you keep showing up for the people, work, and life you have built without losing yourself in the process.

Life asks a lot of us. Most people spend their days giving energy away and very little time restoring it.

Somanai was created to change that. A place where recovery becomes part of how you live, not something you reach for only when you're already running on empty.

WHAT TO EXPECTEXPLORE SERVICES

Every session startswith you

Every visit begins with a personal consultation designed to understand where you are today.

Because effective recovery is never one-size-fits-all.

Using your assessment as a guide, we tailor each session to your needs, combining the right advanced technologies and level of support to create a recovery experience that feels both intentional and deeply personal.
