Energy and Bodywork 

Romiromi

Romiromi seeks to align our spiritual, auric, celestial and physical bodies. A traditional māori healing modality that triggers cellular memories and intergenerational trauma that have accumulated in our physical body. Utilising neutral agitation and pressure, kohatu (stones), rākau (sticks), voice and sound along with the receivers conscious breathwork we aim to create balance and clear energy paths through all dimensions of space and time.

Mirimiri

Mirimiri is a traditional Māori healing practice that combines energy work, guidance from kaitiaki (guardians or guides), and physical touch to restore balance and wellness within the physical body. This modality helps to release stagnant energy and address dis-ease, promoting a natural state of harmony. A mirimiri session can also naturally boost serotonin and dopamine levels, providing support for those managing anxiety or depression.

Every session is different; at times, messages may emerge—whether from loved ones or kaitiaki—either conveyed through me or directly to the person receiving the mirimiri.

Raindrop Technique

Young Living’s proprietary Raindrop Technique® combines unique, targeted massage and energy approaches with pure, authentic essential oils for a deeply harmonizing, rejuvenating, and relaxing experience.

“I highly recommend Kara's skill in mirimiri and romiromi to anyone looking at cleaning and clearing their field of anything and everything, having a reset or even just for the physical aspects, she is highly intuitive and thorough, kind non judgemental and comfortable. You will not regret seeing her and come out the other side feeling so much better for it. 10/10”

“My reading with Kara was extremely accurate and potent!
Kara was able to give me the clairty for my next steps and also great advise of how to come into my heart and connect deeper into the earth. She was able to tell me of places to visit that will help me in my growth on my spiritual path also.
Kara's energy was an activation in itself!
Her energy as a Manifestor was superpowerful and within that I felt seen and heard. Kara's reading was not only for me but she brought in the energy of the ancestors and I felt that a healing was taking place at the same time.
Thank you Kara for sharing your gifts to the world and holding such an amazing space for our reading.
Anyone who gets to have any type of session with Kara, is indeed in for a treat!!! .”

– Victoria Bond

"I recently had the privilege of indulging in a massage session with Kara that far exceeded my expectations. From the moment I stepped into Kara's tranquil space, her wairua and warm greeting immediately put me at ease. Kara's expertise shone through from the very first touch, as she skilfully pinpointed and addressed my areas of tension with precision and care. Her intuitive approach seemed to dissolve all my stress and worries, leaving me feeling completely rejuvenated by the end of the session. I cannot emphasise enough how transformative this experience was. It wasn't just a massage; it was a journey of relaxation, rejuvenation, and healing that left me feeling completely revitalised. I am already looking forward to my next session with Kara."

"I have been for about 4-5 mirimiri with Kara so far. I had some unprofessional experiences with another mirimiri company a while back and was a little cautious. But, Kara has been amazing & restored my faith! She is not only professional, but a gorgeous warm authentic human, who is highly intuitive and so very on point! Some of the messages she has come through with have been incredible knowings & provided a few laughs! The table is set up so cosy & warm too, another lovely layer that helps make it all just a lovely experience 🥰 I love my sessions & look forward to many more, highly recommend Kara 🙏"

"HIGHLY RECOMMENDED I have had 2 sessions of mirimiri with Kara through ACC and after the first session the pain in the back of my legs and lower back pain has substantially improved and I haven’t had any more pain while driving or sitting for long periods at work. Kara is very friendly and knowledgeable and was happy to explain Rongoa and Mirimiri to me so I could get a better understanding of how this holistic healing is working on my body. I wish Kara all the best in the future and I will definitely be recommending to friends and family."

– Rachel Smith
