Whangamata Wellness Creams

The Plains Healing Centre

Dr Hug and Maureen Kennerly

Advanced knowledge of the healing power of herbs and their special effects is used in the formulation of the products by niche and the highly unique companies we recommend, and for this reason we are most selective of the companies we recommend. We certainly recommend a range of handmade skin creams made by a small niche company called Whangamata Wellness. Roger (aka "Dr. Hug") and Maureen Kennerly have been handcrafting their products from the finest raw materials for many years.
 Roger and Maureen are based in Whangamata, the Coromandel Penisula, in a most beautiful part of the North Island of New Zealand and have been making these most amazing creams for over twenty years.  They have become increasingly popular over the years with many people both in NZ and worldwide and their demand has grown. I have recommended the Whangamata hand made creams for over ten years now and find them fantastic in both their quality of formulations and clinical efficacy. My four children responded very well to the Golden Healing Cream, and man patients swear by their Psoriasis Relief Cream for eczema and psoriasis.

Once Upon a Time In Natural Health

Years ago, before larger retail franchised health-foods shops existed, there used to be the independents. The independent health food stores actually knew their natural medicines intimately, they were passionate people who absolutely lived and loved their natural health industry. Their sole purpose was not "to turn a profit", but to engage with their clients and develop a business and lifestyle model around natural health.

Health food shops back then stocked many niche products like the Whangamata Wellness Creams, today only available in a handful of discerning outlets. I fully support these unique and niche products, particularly the ones crafted by passionate and highly experienced people in my industry like Roger and Maureen, and I prefer to stock and recommend them over the cheaper imported products of dubious quality.

I first got to know Roger and Maureen back in the late 90's when I used to travel around the North Island going to different natural health festivals. Their website is www.whangamatawellness.co.nz

Don't Be Fooled!

If a quality natural healing product works consistently with many patients it is worth recommending, and these healing creams certainly work. Here are a selection of the creams I stock in my clinic, I am pleased to be able to offer them to a wider range of people who would otherwise never know about these great products and the equally great people who created them. Why use "Bio Oil" or "Vaseline Intesive Care" which are petroleum based skin products. Such products are entirely laboratory based and totally unnatural. It is time to expose artificial hand and skin creams for what they are - chemical concoctions designed by lab technicians. Their slick marketing campaigns are effective in hooking the public. Don't be fooled!

Once you use a fine natural product like the Whangamata Wellness Creams you will never go back. Many patients we have introduced to these fine creams are delighted and surprised at the difference. They can also relax knowing that they are not using potentially carcinogenic chemicals on their skin with names they cannot even pronounce, let alone fully believe in and trust that there are no long term nasty health surprises by way of "better living through chemistry".
