Whenua Healing
ACC-registered Rongoā Māori Service, Kaupapa Māori
Description
Whenua Healing is an ACC-approved Rongoā Māori provider, delivering kaupapa Māori healing services in alignment with tikanga, whakapapa, and Te Ao Māori.
With Rongoā Mānuka at the heart of our practice, our healing draws on the elemental foundations of Te Ao Māori — whenua, wai, ahi, and hau. As a taonga rākau nurtured by Whenua Honey, Mānuka carries the mauri of the land into our rongoā, supporting physical, emotional, and wairua wellbeing through traditional Māori healing practices including mirimiri, rongoā rākau, and wai-based cleansing.
