ACC-registered Rongoā Māori Service, Kaupapa Māori

Description

Rongoā Māori is a traditional holistic and culture healing practice that incorporates deep personal connections with the natural environment.

My practice is deeply rooted in wairuatanga guided by my Tūpuna, ngā Atua, ngā rongoā rākau. Providing traditional Māori healing to help release historical and emotional trauma clearing a pathway forward and creating a sense of peace and harmony within one’s Te whare tapa wha.

Services Provided

ACC Rongoā Māori

ACC Rongoā Māori ACC recognise rongoā Māori as a kaupapa Māori service. It's culturally grounded care that weaves tikanga Māori, mātauranga Māori, te reo Māori, and te ao Māori through all aspects of the service. We respect that these aspects embrace ngā taonga tuku iho (intergenerational gifts and knowledge handed down from tupuna Māori). We see rongoā Māori in the wider context of traditional Māori healing methodologies. ACC don't consider healing techniques from non-Māori cultural traditions, such as reiki or hyperbaric oxygen treatment, part of rongoā Māori. Even if they're provided by rongoā Māori practitioners.
