Book Our Service

  • Amazing experience! CJ tunes in to what you need and makes you feel really comfortable. Loved the vibe and care that has gone into each aspect of Ora Aroha. I bought 10 vouchers for staff wellbeing and everyone raved about their massage or facial. Even the birds were loving the Nikau that surrounds the special space 🥰 go check it out!

  • Zoe has been a pleasure to work with in fixing my son’s gut health, she is a fountain of knowledge and so patient with my little one who wasn’t always super cooperative! I cannot recommend her services enough, thank you so much Zoe!

  • I had a beautiful experience at Ora Aroha. CJ is warm, welcoming and obviously very experienced and passionate about her work. There was freshly brewed herbal tea waiting for me when I arrived & I felt instantly at ease. The space is a gorgeous, charming cottage surrounded by tropical gardens with a peaceful energy. I had the best massage & facial that I have had in years, I could not fault it. (Papatuanuku treatment) There were tuis singing outside the window during my treatment, almost like they were singing along to the sound healing play list. It really is so much more than your standard massage/facial. If you're in need of some nurturing healing time just for you, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ora Aroha 🤍

  • Through Lisa’s beautiful mahi I have been able to heal slowly over the past few years. I have worked through huge life changes and challenges with Lisa’s insightful guidance and awhi. Being able to connect with loved ones on the other side has become such a meaningful part of my journey in life and I am grateful that Lisa’s taonga allows me to do that ❤️.
