About Pirongia Acupuncture
Pirongia Acupuncture was established by Greg Maitland in 2014 to provide traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatments. He uses a combination of techniques such as acupuncture, acupressure, moxibustion, cupping, herbal medicine, tai chi & qi gong classes, and diet & lifestyle advice. These techniques form part of a holistic approach to treating health issues called tradtional Chinese medicine, or TCM, which has been developed over thousands of years and is used by millions of people around the world today.
We have two clinic locations:
- Pirongia - upstairs in the Pirongia Sports complex at 2 Kane Street, Pirongia.
- Te Awamutu - within Health 2000 at 226 Alexandra Street, Te Awamutu.
Please note that visits are by appointment only. If you would like to book a treatment please contact us.

What Is Traditional Chinese Medicine?
Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is a holistic system of primary health care. It aims to restore balance and harmony to the body when it is no longer functioning optimally, providing effective treatment for a wide range of acute and chronic health disorders. It places as much emphasis on treatment as it does on regulating general immune function and maintaining optimal body function to prevent illness.
