Tohunga Reading Reflection
From reading and learning about Tohungas I now know that Tohungas were
illegal and rongoā the natural herb/plant they used was illegal as well. I also
learnt that Tohungas are like māori doctors but they use natural ingredients,
herbs and chants. Tohungas used rongoā and it is a plant that the Tohunga
used to heal many illnesses. Tohungas and rongoā used to be illegal but
aren’t anymore.

In this story there was a boy called Rāmahi who was quite sick so Mā his
mother took him to a Tohunga because all the other doctors didn’t help him
at all. In the end he didn’t get better straight away but he did start talking and
walking around when they got back.
