Rongoa wairakau - Herbal Medicine
Refers to herbal medicine that acts on human physiology to influence bodily activity, enhance or inhibit organ function, and is prescribed with the aim of correcting imbalances and resolving patterns of dysfunction. Medical herbalists typically use whole plant extracts containing multiple constituents because they believe that these ingredients collectively achieve synergistic activity and enhanced efficacy in the human body.
