Description

Aroha Touch: Working within the field of Romiromi - Traditional Māori Massage and Rongoa Raukau.
Romiromi involves deep bodywork to help align the body, release or unblock deeply held tension, and restore function, and support your injuries.
Our traditional Māori bodywork deeply affects the central nervous system on a cellular level, revitalising all bodily systems to facilitate a return to a more harmonious state of being.
