Hāpai Te Rongoā
ACC-registered Rongoā Māori Service, Kaupapa Māori
Today
Description
Rongoā Māori healing is grounded in connection. Our approach goes beyond treating the physical injury, recognising the importance of whakawhanaungatanga, kōrero, karakia, and understanding the whānau, emotional, mental, and wairua influences that shape wellbeing.
We provide mirimiri and Rongoā Māori services from our clinic in Hastings City, Hawke's Bay.
As an ACC‑registered vendor, our small and dedicated team supports whaiora with a wide range of needs, offering culturally grounded care that restores balance and enhances overall wellbeing.

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.
