Rongoā Māori

Rongoā Māori undertakes to restore, harmonise and maintain balance in our ever changing world. This is achieved by lifting the mana - dignity, and the mauri - the spark or essence that sustains the life of people and places.

Through taonga tuku iho, (gifts passed down), from our tūpuna, (ancestors), we explore time-honoured Māori practices to nurture physical wellness by weaving together the healing threads of the tīnana (body), hinengaro (mind), and wairua (spirit) alongside of connection with self, others and the land.

Rongoā Māori

Romiromi

Romiromi works on blocked traditional healing pressure points within the body. Activating cellular memory, stretching the body and increasing joint movement, it may release physical tension, aid in realigning the body's structure, and promote the flow of positive energy throughout the body.

Mirimiri

Mirimiri is physical healing bodywork that stirs and agitates to help locate and lift the stress and strain from the body.

Kōrero

Whitiwhiti korero is time for whakawhanaungatanga, (establishing connections), sharing time to sit, listen and understand how I can help create a care plan specific to your needs.

Rongoā Rākau

Beyond teas, tinctures, baths and balms.
