Ancestral Essence

Natural Earth Medicine

Ancestral Essence is a healing space for wāhine to reconnect with their body, lineage, and the wisdom of the wharetangata.

Offering 1:1 womb/hara massage, yoni steaming, shamanic journeying, workshops, retreats, and a handmade range of herbal wāhine wellness products.

Ancestral Essence weaves Rongoā Māori, ceremony, and feminine embodiment to support holistic healing and homecoming to self.

Kia ora, I’m Maxine.

Ancestral Essence was born from my own healing journey and a deep calling to honour the wāhine before me.

My work weaves Rongoā Māori, shamanic practice, embodiment, and my lifelong love of herbal healing.

I support wāhine navigating physical, emotional, and ancestral healing through the wisdom of the wharetangata
