Community Health Service

Description

At Circular Wellness we believe that true health and wellness is a holistic subject that requires a multi-faceted approach.
As humans we accumulate tension, stress and trauma throughout our lives. This can manifest as pain, illness or dysfunction on a physical, mental, emotional and spiritual level. 

We offer Rongoā Māori to assist your rehabilitation.

See our website for our full range of services
