Te Whare Oranga Background

Te Whare Oranga has been a project that began a few years ago
with a trip to Taiwan. A large contingent of Kaupapa Maori Health
Providers travelled to Taiwan to observe the therapies that were
being provided, including Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. Taiwan has
an impressive record of wellness service provision to it’s people,
something whanau wellness providers across the motu are keen to
emulate.

One of the organisations that travelled to Taiwan alongside Te Manu
Toroa has implemented the therapies within their service and are
already seeing the benefits of these treatments for their whanau.

In 2018 Te Kohao Health in Kirikiriroa launched their Wellness
Centre that included Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy and Pulsed
Electromagnetic Field Therapy. On the 20th March 2019 Te Manu
Toroa launched the second Kaupapa Maori Wellness Centre to offer
these therapies. Te Whare Oranga will provide therapies for both
current Te Manu Toroa Service users and private clients.
