Elements of the Earth is an acupuncture, botanical medicine and seasonal wellness clinic on Dharug Country in the lower Blue Mountains - land that is known for its eucalypts, tea-trees, boronia, bush mint, flannel flowers, ferns and tiny rare orchids. The area is also known historically for its healing waters, its wildfires, its red clay and volcanic rock, and for a few weeks of the year, for the fireflies that hover and glow in the gullies.
The clinic takes its 'elemental' name from the 5 Elements - fire, earth, metal, water, wood. These elements are symbolic of the seasonal energies, or permutations that occur within the earth, and in our bodies as we move through life. Like Yin and Yang, the concept of the 5 Elements is key to understanding the heart of Chinese Medicine and the reverence the system has for the cycles of the natural world. This reverence is one that practitioner and clinic owner, Tina Camilleri, carries into all her work: a reverence for the land she works on, and for the medicine she works with.
Elements of the Earth is located in the historic Greens Arcade, Blaxland. The clinic is open Wed-Sat, by appointment only, for all your acupuncture, herbal medicine and seasonal wellness needs.
