Koru Centre practitioners
Omana Eve
Transformational Coaching
Founder and Director of Koru Centre

The strong intention that I hold and weave into every offering, is to connect and strengthen my client to their inner knowing, their empowerment and potential. I meet those I work with wherever they are and empathically guide them to reconnect to their true self, authenticity, and power to create a life that they desire.
My own journey through life has led me to some difficult places. I understand suffering from both physical and mental pain. I've lost deeply, and found the strength to carry on, and to rise above what has held me back from the light that shines within. I've learned to find joy, even alongside the most difficult times of life.
I've relentlessly continued on a healing journey through chronic fatigue, chronic pain, autoimmunity, anxiety, depression, injury, allergies... I've learned to identify the false identities of 'I'm Alone', 'I'm Too Much', 'I'm Not Loved', 'I'm Worthless'. I've transformed these beliefs into 'I'm Connected', 'I'm Brilliant', 'I'm Beloved', and 'I Am Worthy of the Best Life has to Offer'.
Now that I know my worth, I've overcome the years of suffering. I'm free of chronic pain, released from the grips of anxiety, uplifted from depression, and catalysed from fatigue. While I continue to work on myself, releasing the years of burden from my body; I am finally able to unleash my full potential into the world and guide others to do the same. It brings me such joy.
I've dedicated myself to learning from the best

Danielle Hankinson
Unwind & Release
I help people who want to move more, do sport, and live without pain holding them back.
After 27 years of chronic neck and shoulder pain from a skiing accident, I tried everything — physio, massage, chiro — but nothing worked long-term. Myofascial release was the one thing that finally did.
I practice John Barnes Myofascial Release and am trained to advanced level. This gentle, sustained approach releases the fascial restrictions causing your pain by addressing the invisible straight-jacket of tension that's pulling your body out of alignment.
Each session is about following your body's unique patterns, layer by layer, until the restrictions holding you back finally let go and your body can reorganize.
Whether you're dealing with chronic pain, old injuries, or restriction that won't shift — I'm here to help you feel strong and pain-free again.

Andrew Perzigian
Acupuncture Works
I graduated from the American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in San Francisco in 2011. Upon graduation, I opened a private practice, Wellness Workshop SF and soon joined forces with Acupuncture Kitchen, what was then San Francisco’s preeminent fertility-based practice. After years working almost solely on women’s health and fertility, I needed a change of pace and completed an orthopedic acupuncture apprenticeship program under the guidance of Whitfield Reeves in 2015.
Acupuncture Works offers acupuncture and herbal medicine consultations that integrate classical Chinese diagnosis with western medical science. The clinic founder, Andrew Perzigian, brings his experience running and working in San Francisco clinics to the Nelson-Tasman region. He has extensive experience treating digestive, mood and women’s health disorders and has completed apprenticeships in classical pulse diagnosis and orthopaedic acupuncture for the treatment of acute and chronic pain.

Henriette Politano
Registered Psychotherapist

Life can feel difficult at times. As much as we may wish otherwise, challenges are an inevitable part of being human.
For over 15 years, I have had the privilege of supporting clients through life’s challenges and transitions, helping them move towards greater wellbeing. I trust in the wholeness of every human being and believe that, in many ways, what we need is already within us. My invitation is to accompany you on a journey of self-discovery, where life’s challenges can become stepping stones towards greater freedom, meaning and connection.
I work with relationship difficulties, grief and loss, illness, anxiety, stress, trauma, PTSD, depression and recurring patterns that no longer serve us. I also support clients in exploring questions of identity, purpose, spirituality, values, authenticity, ageing and death. Therapy with me offers a space to explore your humanity within the challenges of life, bringing together the physical, emotional and spiritual aspects of your experience.
I am passionate about working with people who are seeking personal change. Perhaps you feel stuck in a difficult life situation or caught in patterns that no longer feel right for you. Perhaps you are questioning whether the life you are living truly reflects who you are and who you want to be. You may feel lost or disconnected from yourself, distant from your own wisdom and sense of inner home. Together, we can explore new possibilities and open the way towards greater wellbeing, connection and a deeper sense of grounding in your life.
My approach is grounded in Hakomi, Transactional Analysis and Psychodynamic Therapy. I also draw on my training in Somatic Experiencing and Polyvagal Theory, alongside a spiritual perspective. As a holistic therapist, I am deeply interested in supporting you to reconnect with yourself, find clarity amidst confusion and develop a deeper understanding of who you are.
My invitation is to imagine a life in which you feel more in love with the world — and yes, that includes being in love with yourself. A life in which you can begin to meet your difficulties not simply as obstacles to overcome, but as guideposts towards new possibilities. Through this process, you may discover greater freedom, a deeper sense of meaning and a feeling of truly belonging in your own life.
