Ancient Maori Healing: Mirimiri and Romiromi

The ancient Māori healing modalities of Mirimiri and Romiromi are powerful restorative practices that bring rebalance, realignment, balance, clarity and wellness to the body, mind and spirit. Mirimiri and Romiromi assists the release of stress and tension from the body that accumulates as a by-product of hectic, modern day lifestyles.

Mirimiri helps to clear energetic blocks within the body that often result from physical or emotional trauma. Our human experiences are ‘remembered’; that is, held within cellular memory, deep in the physical body. Both Mirimiri and Romiromi work at this level, even deeper than what is commonly known as ‘Deep Tissue’.

Where to begin….. I have never met anyone like Jolie or experienced anything like what she offers. After 2 years of various therapies for PTSD after a major trauma injury, I came across her site and asked if she might be able to help. What happened to me in her session room was nothing short of miraculous. After one deeply emotional and painful session - just 1 - my night terrors were gone, the fearful sweats were gone! I slept soundly for the first time in 2 years. That alone should be all the recommendation anyone needs. She is a woman with a gift.

What Does Mirimiri mean?  What does Romiromi mean?

The simplest way to understand the linguistic origins and translation of both Mirimiri and Romiromi is to break each word down:

·        Mi – to stimulate

·        Ri – to agitate 

·        Ro – internal organs

·        Mi – to stimulate

It follows that Mirimiri stimulates and energises blood, bone, tissue and fluids… Romiromi includes a deeper layer of healing that affects the function of the internal organs.  Traditionally, both systems are practiced simultaneously and holistically, complementing one another to bring balance to the body and harmony to the mind.

To substantiate one’s life

To gain the essence of one’s being

To understand one’s being is to know

all things descend to me

And what comes to me can come to you also.

For a new horizon is in sight!

Step outside your comfort zone and Experience Personal Transformation Through Mirimiri

Empowerment and growth through traditional maori healing

A popular misconception about Mirimiri is that it is simply a form of massage!

In reality, Mirimiri is much more. It is a philosophy, a way of life, a path back to wellness and inclusive of all people.

Mirimiri and Romiromi works to restore and balance your body AND mind, delivering harmonious healing on a spiritual level.

At Manawa Ora Mirimiri & Workshops, we practice authentic, traditional Mirimiri which is respectful of the teachings of Māori healing passed down from generation to generation.
