Meet Sarah

As a practitioner, I am especially interested in the fluid and changing nature of health; health as the ability of the body to adapt and change to the demands of its environment - involving both the external and internal environments of the individual.

Sarah is a kind and and generous practitioner that goes above and beyond for clients. She has treated each member of my family for different things and we have felt well supported through the healing process. Highly recommend her.

As we move into spring we can use this as a time to reflect on the growth we seek. What do you want to bring into bloom and how are you planning to bring this into creation?

Spring is a powerful time to cultivate our ideas, and with enough water, watch them fruit in the summer.

Spring is the gradual embodiment of Yang - action, motion and doing. As the seasons bring this Yang to us naturally, we can use it to catalyse our own creations.

Projects that have been gestating over the winter can be birthed now. Working with these natural cycles creates ease and harmony and helps our projects come into material reality 🌿

What are you hoping to birth this spring? I’d love to hear in the comments below.

#spring #birth #creation

Equinox is a special time in East Asian Medicine - the time of the year when the length of day and night are equal, symbolically representing the perfect balance of Yin-Yang ☯️

In reality, Yin and Yang are always in motion (not still), so these moments of equal balance are rare. Nature shows us that all can still remain in harmony, as we dance through changing Yin and Yang.

#equinox #eastasianmedicine #yinyang

You will only get the freshest, locally grown mushrooms in our tinctures.

Why is that important?
❌ no additives
❌ no mushrooms imported from China
❌ no ‘mycelium’ which is really mushrooms replaced with grain fillers

Online store opening October.
Stay tuned for opening specials 🤗

Supporting your body so you can pursue big dreams ✨

You’re creative, you have big goals, you have lots of roles, and plenty of responsibility as well. Your busy, vibrant and beautifully full life requires a nourished body to ensure you can show up in the areas of life that matter most to you.

Support your body, and she will support you to chase what truly lights you up.

Work 1:1 and give your body the fuel it’s craving.

Gentle emergence ~

Yes, spring is all about birth and new beginnings, but spring also blooms slowly.

If we’ve taken winter slowly, it can be tempting to launch full force into spring. The Yang seasons comprise half of the year, what we wish to complete can happen gradually.

If we want to last the distance and bring our ideas into fruition, they need to grow steadily. Any plant that blooms too early is at risk of an early spring frost.

#seasonalliving #spring #eastasianmedicine

Unlike many other traditions, Japanese needling has a focus on patient comfort. We are trained as practitioners to administer PAINLESS insertion. No twisting, no pulling, no discomfort.

To fully unwind and go deep, you can’t have the expectation of pain in the back of your mind.

Plus, I bet you’ve never seen a needle so small it can bend back over on itself ✨

Spring has arrived!

How delightful it feels to welcome in a burst of Yang energy - finally it is time to begin slowly growing and moving out of hibernation.

Spring is ruled by the liver and gallbladder, organs which have an important role in blood and qi production, detoxification, emotional balance and the smooth flow of qi.

Spring won’t properly hit us until the equinox, but we can still celebrate the movement towards the light 🌞

Finding a medicine that your children are happy to have can be a real difficulty 😅

Japanese medicine has powerful paediatric treatments, but the best part is your child won’t just love coming, they will ask to come back.

Treatment is fun, kids can move and shuffle, have toys on the bed with them, chat, or even receive treatment while being held. Whatever it is that makes them feel most at home.

And once they’ve felt it in their body, they know it’s good for them - they keep asking to return.

#paediatrics #shonishin #eastasianmedicine #japanesemedicine #bluemountains

It’s that time of year!

Recovering from a light head cold over the weekend, but the blocked nose was remaining…. Not for long!

Nothing like a bit of pre-clinic self-care.

If your colds/flus are lingering, get in touch. A seasonal tune-up might be what you need, and you don’t have to suffer with congestion.

BONUS - this is a mini-facial at the same time, increasing wi and blood flow to the whole face 😘

Price Increase ~

To all of my loyal clients, I thank you endlessly for your support and trust over the last ten years of my practice. Without you, I wouldn’t still be here!

No one enjoys a price increase, but to keep my practise sustainable the time has come to increase my service fees.

I love providing you and your children with a professional and premium service. Increasing my fees will allow me to continue providing my unique and important medicine to the community that I support.

I understand that this price increase will feel difficult, and have introduced session packs as a way to ease the transition. Until August 1, you can purchase 6 sessions in advance at the current price. They are valid for 6 months (which will take you to the end of the year 🥳) and allow you to lock in your health care at the current rate.

Session packs will continue after August 1, though at an updated price.

Thank you for your understanding. I look forward to seeing you in clinic,

A little snapshot of some Self-Moxa between clients.

It’s hard to beat the power of direct moxa for moving the Qi and Blood quickly in the body. Moxa is an ancient tradition which was original held by monks in the monastic traditions. Eventually this art form was given to lay people and practiced through long family lineages.

How lucky we are to utilise this powerful medicine in modern times.

REMEDY DROP ~

Hi All, here is the long awaited remedy drop. This will be my last one until Spring as I take the Winter months to move intentionally slower and inwards. I will birth projects outwards again when nature does too 🥰

All of these products are organic, local and/or wildcrafted where possible.

Please DM me with your order
Please let me know if you like postage or pickup.
Local pick up will be in Katoomba next Wednesday and Thursday.

Once you have placed your order I will send you a pay link which will allow you to pay directly without the hassle of bank transfer.

Thank you so much for your ongoing support, it means the world to us x

What an amazing day!

Our Moving with the Seasons group just completed the third week of their course where we marked the transition to Autumn.

We talked all things Autumn and learned about the contraction of energies as we now move from Yang to Yin. We had lots of intimate conversations, enjoyed the crisp coolness in the air, foraged, reflected and finished with a pungent brew of fire cider to use for the month ahead.

A stellar bunch of humans sharing in the wonders of our bodies and nature ✨

Thank you xx

Collected these other-worldly Reishi today from our local mushroom grower Alexx @earthrisingau .

I am beyond excited to be stocked up on these again, which means more of your favourite mushroom tonics in the near future 🍄❤️

Did you know nearly all Reishi you buy is imported from China? This is why my stock is so limited, because I refuse to buy mushrooms from places that don’t have full transparency.

I am so thrilled to have not only an Australian grower, but one that is Blue Mountains based!

I look forward to more collaboration with @earthrisingau in the future ☺️

Ontake Moxa 🔥

I love using this beautiful moxa tool in clinic. Made from a section of bamboo and filled with moxa, it is such a simple yet versatile way to deliver moxa.

Tapped, rubbed or massaged on the body the bamboo mediates the heat and makes for a moxa crossed with massage-like technique.

You might have seen me use this in clinic - it’s a favourite way to get deeply into tissue and move blocked qi and blood. It is a also a sneaky way to treat wriggly kids without the risk of burn 🤭

#moxa #moxibustion #japanesemedicine #eastasianmedicine #ontake

Now booking for this hands-on in the field workshop series. Together we explore the changing seasons and how this affects our inner health.

Turning to the natural world as our guide, you will learn how to forage natural remedies and turn them into your very own remedies. If you wanted to be guided from field to remedy, this is your course!

For more information check out my last post, or drop over to my website 🏕️💚

#bluemountains #foraging #wildcrafting #eastasianmedicine

I am excited to officially launch my upcoming workshop series ‘Moving With the Seasons’.

We will use the philosophy of East Asian Medicine to hold us as we journey from Late Summer into Autumn.

This five part course will be held on alternate Tuesday mornings during the school term. This will be highly practical - we will be foraging our own medicine and taking it through the whole process from plant to bottle, so you leave with an array of tonics for your home medicine cabinet.

~ time in the field getting hands on experience foraging, identifying plants, learning about safe and respectful harvesting
~ taking our harvest from plant to tea, oil, salve, tincture and more
~ discussion, reflection, food and lifestyle advice to harmonise our bodies to the changing season for optimal health and well being

Spaces will be limited to 14, so you can get lots of 1:1 attention.

Please feel free to visit my web site for more information. Booking is currently not working there (hopefully resolved soon!). If you would like to reserve your place in the meantime, please DM.

#foraging #seasons #eastasianmedicine #wildcrafting #bluemountains

Resuming clinic next Tuesday the 9th of January and can’t wait to see you there.

This year I will be celebrating 10 years in practise! This feels like a huge milestone - and I’ve been so fortunate to train with so amazing teachers and colleagues along the way. Japanese Medicine is so rich.

I am feeling more committed than ever to my practise and am looking forward to another year supporting you on your health journey.
