A space to reset, realign, and return to self. Romiromi. Mirimiri.

Healing the Wairua, Nurturing the Tinana, Return to Balance.

Te Puna Waiora meaning the spring of divine healing waters.

At Te Puna Waiora, I offer more than just a healing session, I offer a sacred space where you are deeply seen, heard, and supported. Through the traditional Māori healing practices of Romiromi and Mirimiri, I gently guide you to release the burdens carried in your body, spirit and heart. This work helps clear blockages, ease long-held pain, and reconnect you to your wairua (spirit) - so you can return home to yourself.

Each session is grounded in aroha (love), manaakitanga (care), and the ancient wisdom handed down by my ancestors. Supported by my kaitiaki -that protect, guide and nurture me this mahi, I walk alongside you as you remember your strength, restore balance, and realign with the path meant for you. This is a space for deep healing, renewal, and connection - all in your own time, in your own way.

  • "This was all new to me and was unsure how it would go. After a short conversation I immediately felt comfortable and was very open minded to my appointment ahead. I left feeling lighter and free. Highly recommend Erana for the amazing work she does. Definitely making another appointment for the near future. "

  • What a privilege it is to experience traditional Maori healing both spiritually and physically with a practitioner that is on touch with Tikanga Maori, Te Reo, Whakapapa and Rongoa. Erena helped me see beyond my physical aches and pains by linking them to deep emotional causes that I'd been unaware of and talking it through made me more aware of how to release them and move forward with a better understanding. I recommend her services with full confidence that you too will come away feeling 100% better for it.

  • Receiving healing from Erena is a special experience that I struggle to put into words, but I'll try. She uses all her taonga, in both her physical world and her spiritual world, to connect with you, to get that deeper healing, which I love. Karakia and waiata are always flowing, and really help me to relax and be open to the journey we undertake together. She takes her time, and I'm always appreciative of the debrief that follows after our session, as she always passes on little reminders from my kaitiaki. Physically I leave feeling great, and spiritually I leave feel more connected to my tūpuna. I miss her now that she's gone abroad, and will book in every time she comes home for a visit❤️

  • "I recently experienced a Maori massage, and it was unlike anything I’ve ever had. I’ve tried many traditional massage therapies, but this was so much more than just physical relaxation. The practitioner incorporated karakia and breathwork, which really connected me to something deeper. It felt like a spiritual and emotional release as much as a physical one. What sets Maori massage apart is its holistic approach. It’s not just about working out knots; it’s about restoring balance and harmony within your whole being. I left feeling realigned, grounded, and peaceful. If you're looking for a massage that goes beyond the surface and offers a profound healing experience, I highly recommend giving Maori massage a try. It’s a beautiful way to connect with your inner self and the rich cultural heritage behind it."

  • In one of the darkest chapters of my life, Erena was a guiding light. Through romiromi and wairua, she helped me begin to release my grief and reconnect with my mauri. Her healing isn't just physical — it’s deeply spiritual, ancestral, and sacred. Erena carries the wisdom of our tūpuna with grace. Her āhua is gentle yet powerful, and the way she holds space is something truly special. I am forever grateful for her presence, her mahi, and her heart.

  • Receiving romiromi and wairua healing from Erena was truly transformational. Her presence, her hands, and her wairua hold a deep knowing that brought me back to myself at a time when life felt heavy and stuck. Through her mahi, I felt old energies shift, space open, and a new sense of ease and flow begin to move through my life. Erena carries the healing wisdom of our tīpuna in everything she does. Her sessions are more than physical, they’re wairua-filled experiences that support deep release, realignment, and reconnection. I’m so grateful for her aroha and her gift. She is truly a taonga in this healing space. Ngā mihi aroha e te tuakana, your mahi came exactly when I needed it most.
