Ki te whiwhi i te maru me te tirotiro, ka nui te hiranga o te ao rongoā ki te whai i ngā tūtohu matua. Ki runga i tēnei, ko ngā pūtōki kohiti iti nui rawa atu te mihiaro mō te whakamana i ngā wāhi tuhinga i ngā paiaka wai e whakamahi ana ngā kai rongoā i ngā ruma rongoā, ngā whare rawa, ā, āheinga hoki i ngā raorao. Kāore anō rātou i te whakahē ki te whakamahi, ā, ko ō rātou āhuatanga haumaru, waiporoporo, me te higiene he mea whai hua hei whakamahia i ngā ruma rongoā me ngā whare rawa.
Ka takoto ake ngā pūtōki kohiti nei i ngā pūtōki kotahi, ko te whanake i te kawe i te wai e taea ana, e hiahia ana hei whakamahi mo ngā tikanga rongoā. Ka whiwhi noa iho ngā rongoā, ngā karu huaroa, ā, āheinga hoki i ngā whakarite raorao, ka whiwhi mai i ēnei toko, ka tūpato te whakamana i te whakamahi. Ko te nui hoki o ngā toko e tae ana ki te hanga i ngā paetaki, e whakapakari ana i te tino whakamana e taea ai i te wā e mahi ana me te kawe i ngā paiaka wai.
He maha ngā whakamahi mō ngā pūtōki kohiti e taea ai te tahuhu i ētahi atu rauemi. Ko ngā whakamahi tuatahi mo enei he mahi rongoa, mahi veterineri, rongoa, dermatology, ā he maha. He waihanga noa iho ko te mea ka whakaae ngā rongoa ki te whakawehi i ngā rongoa matua me te pūtōki kohiti. Kaore te whakaputu rongoa hei wānanga iti. Ko tētahi o ngā momo hapa ko te tangata kaimahi e hoki ana me te maha rawa rongoa nui rānei, iti rānei i te tohu. Noho nui ake nei ngā toko iwi mō ngā karaka, ngā rongoa karu, ngā rongoa matawhaiti, ā he wāhi hoki mō te dermatology, nā te mea ka ea te whakahaere i te toko.
He whakamahi pai nui ngā pūtōki kohiti iti. Ko te nuinga he whanake i te miro hara-āhua rongoa, he whakarite i ngā raraunga horoi. Ko te whakatupu i enei pūtōki kohiti i runga i tēnei miro whakatika, ka tiakina ngā rauemi i roto, ā, ka tiakina hoki ngā pūtōki hei whakarite anō i te whakautu. Ka ea te pūtōki kia paku, ka ea hoki te whakamahi i roto i ngā wāhi rongoa, nā te mea ko te wā e hiahia ana koe ki te mahi.

Nga hangarau me ngā materia o ahetahi horopaki hou ka tuku ake ētahi atu rautaki pai ake mo ngā pūtōki pīrori mō ngā kaiwhiwhi hauora.
