About Kawakawa Miracle: My Story and Natural Healing Journey

Why I Started Making Kawakawa Oil and Balm Remedies

As a qualified Natural Health Professional, my journey into creating natural pain relief remedies began out of personal necessity. As we age, our bodies face new challenges. For years, I battled debilitating chronic pain caused by physical injury, joint degeneration, persistent inflammation, and an immune disease. Traditional treatments offered little comfort, which drove me to develop my own plant-based solutions: Organic Kawakawa Miracle Oil and Balm, alongside our soothing Organic Lavender Kawakawa Miracle Oil and Balm.

These unique, handmade remedies combine the powerful healing properties of native New Zealand Kawakawa leaves with Gotu Kola leaves, Elite Shungite, organic Jojoba oil, Vitamin E, and carefully selected therapeutic essential oils.

After experiencing firsthand how rapidly these remedies targeted my inflammation—and seeing the incredible results replicated in friends and family—I founded Kawakawa Miracle. Today, my mission is to share these natural healing remedies so everyone can regain their mobility and benefit from a vibrant, pain-free life. 

My Background: From Scotland to New Zealand

My passion for holistic wellbeing began in the UK, where I trained extensively as a Holistic Physical Therapist and Reiki Master. For years, I ran a busy, successful clinic in Scotland. While there, I crafted bespoke, hand-blended herbal remedies from plants grown natively on our land to help my clients naturally reduce pain and muscle inflammation.

When I moved to New Zealand, I sought a native botanical that possessed the same powerful anti-inflammatory and restorative properties. This search led me to the wonders of Kawakawa (Macropiper excelsum), a plant deeply rooted in traditional Māori herbal medicine (Rongoā Māori) for treating skin ailments, aches, and internal discomfort.

Sustainably Sourced in Maungaturoto, Northland

True to my holistic roots, the wild Kawakawa leaves used in our remedies are sustainably hand-harvested right from the land where we live, high on a hillside overlooking Maungaturoto in Northland. I also personally cultivate the Gotu Kola leaves on-site to ensure the highest purity and quality.  By blending these traditional New Zealand botanicals with modern, premium ingredients like organic Jojoba oil, antioxidant-rich Vitamin E, and the energetic properties of Elite Shungite, I have created a potent, synergistic remedy that accelerates skin healing and deeply relieves joint and muscle pain.

The Turning Point: Healing Chronic Arthritis and Pain

The true test of these products was my own recovery. Severe arthritis began attacking my hands, leaving me with extreme joint pain and swelling that made everyday tasks impossible.

Within just a couple of weeks of applying my handmade Kawakawa oil and balm regularly, the swelling in my fingers subsided, my mobility returned, and the pain completely dissipated. Within a month, I was using my hands completely normally and without discomfort.

A Versatile, Everyday Healing Miracle for Body and Skin

Beyond managing arthritis, I use the Kawakawa Miracle oil daily on my back to dramatically reduce chronic back pain and enhance my physical mobility. Because the formula is exceptionally light, clean, and fragrant, it also doubles as a deeply nourishing facial moisturiser that gives mature skin a healthy, natural glow.

Regular application has successfully cleared up:

  • Sun-damaged skin patches

  • Stubborn eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis flare-ups

  • General dry skin and age-related thinning skin irritation

Infused with Reiki Healing Energy

Every single batch of Kawakawa Miracle is crafted with love and infused with intentional Reiki healing energy to support your body's natural regeneration. Our Koru logo reflects this philosophy, symbolising the life force energy, new beginnings, and continuous growth.

These remedies completely transformed my quality of life, and it is my deepest hope that they bring the same profound healing and relief to yours.
