Ko te Ūkaipō :
She is the sustainer of life. She is our ancestors, Our land, Our childhood, Our memories, Our identity, Our Mothers
She connects us to the womb sustaining us through the ancient ties of the umbilical cord. When we are born into this Earth realm we first search for our Mother and her breast milk (Ūkaipō) Throughout our stages of life, We continue to search for that milk in ways of creating warmth, security and safety like a child in their mothers arms.
Like Papatūānuku our Earth Mother, She nourishes and nurtures. Her roots sustain and connect all her children to taiao our natural world.
Our kaupapa being Kaitiakitanga: As guardians of this Earth, To protect, preserve, sustain and serve from the portal of our hearts. Supporting, breathing and growing in harmony collectively as one TOGETHER.
She is our pulse, our heartbeat, She is us, And we are her.

Introducing Dayna:
Dayna believes in empowerment through education; you are the expert of your own body. Her role is to educate and empower you with the knowledge to make informed decisions about your health.
Her extensive background in pharmacy has provided her with a unique insight into the world of medicine. Dayna has seen firsthand the limitations of a system focused solely on symptoms rather than the root causes of illness. This experience fueled her passion for a more holistic approach to health—one that considers the entire person, not just the condition.
In a world where time is precious, and holistic care is often overlooked, Dayna stands as a bridge. She merges the efficiency and precision of her pharmacy expertise with the nurturing, patient centre principles of naturopathy. This unique blend allows her to create wellness plans that are as individual as you are, tailored to meet you at your point of need.
Dayna is committed to making naturopathic care accessible and affordable. Health should not be a privilege but a right for everyone.
