Kawakawa is one of the most important healing herbs in Rongoa Maori. It grows wildly and abundantly throughout much of NZ and possesses a unique and subtle New Zealand scent.
Used topically (when added to a base product, not to be used alone) kawakawa has antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and circulatory stimulant actions making it useful for painful muscles and joints, chilblains, bruising, gardening rashes, bites and stings, nappy rash, grazes and eczema.
