RONGOĀ MĀORI: ROTORUA WOMAN USES TRADITIONAL HEALING METHOD FOR ANKLE INJURYWhen Rotorua woman Michelle Van Schadewijk started using rongoā Māori for an ankle injury, she says it “snowballed into a whole lot of self-care”. As well as easing the pain in her ankle, the 45-year-old says the traditional Māori healing method helped her change her diet and return to the gym. She also says she no longer takes medication and feels “calmer”. The Accident Compensation Corporation (ACC) started offering rongoā Māori as a recovery option in 2020 and says claims almost doubled in the past year, with more than a third of clients non-Māori, like van Schadewijk. ACC will host the inaugural Accident Compensation Corporation (ACC) Rongoā Māori conference at Rotorua’s Energy Event Centre on Wednesday and Thursday..... www.msn.com/en-nz/health/other/rongo%C4%81-m%C4%81ori-rotorua-woman-uses-traditional-healing-method-for-ankle-injury/ar-BB1mGFi8
