Holistic massage with Helena: A natural way to balance
It has all started in 2010. After years of training in the UK, USA and Czech Republic with other like-minded experts, I‘ve learned to share my experience through combination of service and education. My intention is to provide the highest standard.
My work experience:
- 2014 London – massage studio in a shop with a Polish drugstore Cremoteka,
- 2018 USA - mobile massages, mostly of athletes, in Las Vegas and Los Angeles,
- 2018 Prague - an on-call therapist for five star hotels King David, King Charles, Les Palais, Carlo IV., Mandarin Oriental, for massage studio Chillin and running my own massage studio at Smichov.
- 2022 Prague - Vinohrady - start up after maternity leave.
- 2026 Prague - Karlín. Connecting advantages of sports and luxury environments in my new studio.
Individual approach and constant education are key. Throughout my years of practice I have always searched for knowledge from the best possible resources. What drives me is a real passion to help my clients move through a wide range of transitions in the most efficient way towards a quality balanced life.

My Mission
Power and Balance
I want my clients to be partners in their own healing. I want them to understand how powerful their minds and bodies really are, and how each organ and symptom is part of a larger system. Healing chronic ailments as well as ultimate relaxation takes a certain level of sensitivity, which I will never stop improving. The final result should always be progression towards life filled with Power in Balance.

My Philosophy
First, we establish whether you came to relax or to deal with pain. That determines our next focus. Either deep release or facilitation techniques and figuring out the best way to help you. Or you will lie down, rest and communicate only the amount you feel like, letting yourself be carried away by the groove of the massage. The intensity of strength or flow of your massage depends on you and the feedback from your body. I have enough strength as well as gentleness. I have effective techniques and procedures and at the same time I am aware of the fact that everything needs to be accustomed and tuned individually. We function in similar ways but we are tuned differently.
Oils, that I use, must always be of natural BIO quality, cold pressed. As someone with atopic ekzema tendencies I cannot allow anything chemical. My working horse is a czech brand Saloos, with years of personally verified quality. In order to achieve the most luxurious possible experience, for some esthetic procedures I now use high-end oils Inlight. Specifically Inlight Bio Firm & Tone Oil and Inlight Bio Deep Moisture Balm. I have not found anythig cleaner, more mesmerizing and effective so far. More about the Inlight brand here.
Music is an undeniable part of most massage treatments. I enjoy the resonance power of frequency therapy music, but we can also listen to a piano relaxation, whale sounds, tibetan mantra or more energizing chillstep.
Hygiene. Everything cotton, everything washed hot. I make sure to prepare enough fresh towels and bedding for every client. I sanitize after each client. Cleanliness, ecology and your comfort are all priorities that I strive to balance.
Privacy is a matter of dignity. I ensure to maintain high towel draping standards. For getting on and off the massage table I give you a comlete privacy.
Peace. I maintain at least thirty minutes gaps between my clients to have enough time to say goodbye and clean up. After each massage, you can enjoy a cup of tea in the waiting area of the salon. I do not cross a small amount of massages a day to stay relaxed, calm and energetic.
My clients know that I'm all about communication. I care about your expectations and adjusting massage to your special requirements. I understand and appreciate human differencies and I would never want to generalize what everybody wants or what every massage should look like. At the same time I am open to new approaches and ideas and I like to look at things from various angles. If you would like to share anything with me, let's talk about it.
Helena is one of the best I’ve ever been to. I was experiencing an issue with an impinged nerve in my neck/shoulder and Helena helped me even just a few hours before a dance competition. She really does understand her work, she’s patient. I would definitely recommend her to everyone, who wants to get fixed or even just relax.
