25.01.2022 Movember has begun! It might be a little harder to notice this year as all that budding peach fuzz is hidden behind a mask, but its an important cause to get behind. Men’s mental health in particular has taken a hard knock this year and the Movember campaign has great ideas to raise funds and awareness. Jump over to movember.com for more info. #movember2020 #movemberaustralia #menshealth #mensmentalhealth #moveformovember #fiveelementshealthandvitality

23.01.2022 Cmon, all the cool kids are doing it! From midnight tonight it will be a requirement for everyone to wear a mask if you need to leave your house. In the clinic we have been wearing masks during treatments for a few weeks now, we look forward to seeing you in yours! Have a chat to your therapist if you are medically exempt from wearing one. ... Hopefully if we all get onboard with this then we can avoid moving to stage 4 lockdown, and start to watch the numbers drop #weareinthistogether #wearamask #washyourhands #fiveelementshealthandvitality #massage #acupuncture #privatemidwifery

23.01.2022 It is supposed to be summer, isn’t it? Isn’t it?!! There are still some spaces available for massage and acupuncture tomorrow, and there shouldn’t be nearly as many puddles to jump by then. Call or text Nadia for massage & acupuncture 0411 962 489... Call or text Kristen for remedial massage 0402134107 Or book through MindBody.

22.01.2022 SHIN SPLINTS! (this mornings juice for attention). Lots of us have been pounding the pavement this lockdown to keep fit and maintain our sanity. Shin splints May be the consequence of increased running intensity. Nadia has been working on some great treatment for shin splint pain that will have you up and running again in no time! We are hoping that acupuncture will be permitted again in stage 3. Until then, enjoy some sunshine and take care of yourself

20.01.2022 Alas, with the stage 4 restrictions from tonight we cannot offer any massages for the next 5 days You may still book in tomorrow for acupuncture with Nadia for acute health issues 0411 962 489 Let’s hope we squash this quickly and we’ll all see each other in a week or so. Stay home, rest up, hydrate and eat well. We’ve got this.

20.01.2022 Its a tricky time to find a sense of normal. Online services are a great way to stay in touch and reconnect, Danas group meditation is still open to all who would like to join. Bookings can be made via. www.paypal.me/DanaSpiritButterfly/20AUD Spiritual coaching and intuitive guidance can also be held online, no one need go through this alone ...

20.01.2022 Big thanks to all nurses out there! You do an amazing job and you are so appreciated

20.01.2022 Im sure there are many graphs giving more relevant data at the moment, but somehow this is resonating with me more than most. Fingers crossed this starts to change soon

19.01.2022 Start a conversation. Today is National R U OK Day, which this year coincides with World Suicide Prevention Day. If theres ever been a year to get on board with this day of action then its definitely this one, none of us are really ok. The message this year is theres more to say after R U OK?... You dont have to be an expert to keep the conversation going, listening and support makes a really positive difference to someone who is struggling. Trust your gut if you feel that theres something not quite right with someone you know, and ask if theyre ok. Ask. Listen. Encourage action. Check in. ruok.org.au has all of the resources to help us reach out to those around us, as well as guides and ideas of how to navigate around current restrictions, in the workplace, or with friendship groups. #ruok #worldsuicidepreventionday #ruokday2020 #asklistenencouragecheckin #mentalhealth #fiveelementshealthandvitality #fitzroynorth

19.01.2022 Just because this week hasnt been interesting enough.... AHPRA has now advised that allied health bookings will require a referral from a GP or medical specialist. They are still trying to clarify information from the Dept of Health so well keep you updated of any changes Feel free to call any of our practitioners for more information Nadia 0411 962 489 Hugh 0409 851 368... Shared Care Midwifery remains the same at this stage Denise 0416 509 195 See more

13.01.2022 We all hoped it wouldnt come to this but unfortunately as of midnight tonight stage 3 lockdowns will come into effect. Its alright, weve done this before, we know that we are going to be ok. Our team at Five Elements are still able to see clients as acupuncture and remedial/therapeutic massage have been deemed as essential (until further notice) ... We are taking hygiene very seriously, ensuring that rooms & tables are thoroughly cleaned and sanitised between clients, door knobs and often touched surfaces are cleaned throughout the day, and hand sanitiser is available for everyone to make use of. You may still attend your booked appointment but if you begin to feel any symptoms please let your therapist know immediately to reschedule, and get tested. If you are choosing to self isolate and need to reschedule we completely understand, we just ask you give us as much notice as possible. Stay safe everyone, wash your hands and stay in contact with your neighbours and loved ones! We are here if you need us xxx

13.01.2022 You can now book in for relax & therapeutic massage with both Nadia & Kristen! All options are available to book online with MindBody. We all still need to remain vigilant so even if you have very mild symptoms or someone in your household is unwell then its best to postpone until you have the all clear. #massagetherapy #health #wellness #fiveelementshealthandvitality #acupuncture #backtowork

13.01.2022 Womens Health Week Sept 7-11 is Womens Health Week in Australia. Now more than ever its important to ensure we make good health a priority, so this event is a great reminder to take time out to check in on your health and to keep making positive changes that can last a lifetime. Women shoulder an incredible load, and usually put themselves last when it comes time for self care. The old saying of you cant pour from an empty jug comes to mind when we see other women look...ing after everyone else and making no time to check in with themselves. Small changes make a huge difference. For more information on what this week is all about jump over to womenshealthweek.com.au #womenshealthweek #womenshealthmatters #goodhealthapriority

13.01.2022 Spring has not been shy about announcing itself this year! Which is a nice suggestion of better things to come after the long, hard slog that was winter. The end of lockdown is within reach, and we are eagerly anticipating being able to see our lovely clients again! Not long to go... #spring #isowalks #blossom #fiveelementshealthandvitality #massage #acupuncture #privatemidwifery #endoflockdown

12.01.2022 Have you tried Kinesiology? We are very excited to announce a new practitioner starting at the end of this month! Julie Barca is a registered Kinesiologist, who will be bringing her passion for helping her clients to her practice within our clinic. Her own early experiences with Kinesiology had a profound impact on her life, which led to a career change and a dedication to helping others find their life direction and purpose. ... What is Kinesiology? Kinesiology is a natural, non- invasive therapy that promotes greater health and wellbeing. The basis of Kinesiology is muscle monitoring, a bio feedback method, which is a way of communicating with the body on a subconscious level and enables the Kinesiologist to detect and correct energy imbalances in the body. These imbalances can present themselves in many different ways including on a physical, emotional or chemical level. For optimal health, all elements must be in harmony with each other. Kinesiology can create powerful changes through gentle and calming techniques, without the need to revisit the source of the pain over and over. By not only working with the physical, but with the energetic systems of the body, profound healing and transformation can take place. Some typical reasons you may decide to try Kinesiology include: * You feel overwhelmed with stress and anxiety * You lack energy and vitality and just feel out of sorts * You have re-occurring aches and pains in your body that just won’t go away * You feel you have lost your sense of purpose Julie is offering a 10% discount for new clients For more information or to book visit https://juliebarca.com.au Or call 0425 744 546 for a chat with Julie

12.01.2022 We’ve known it all along! Massage is good for your health, not just something that feels nice . It’s great to see more studies recognising this

11.01.2022 Well, not the news we were hoping for. It’s disappointing to say the least! Let’s cross all fingers and toes that the numbers stay low and the next step comes sooner rather than later (it’s ok, we’ll massage out those cramping hands and feet in your next appointment) Hang in there! xx

11.01.2022 Its a beautiful day to browse your local farmers markets! Supporting small farmers out in the open air sure beats running the gauntlet in the big supermarkets! #melbournefarmersmarkets #coburgfarmersmarket #supportlocal #fiveelementshealthandvitality #washyourhands #wearamask

11.01.2022 Today is the last day that massage will be available and Kristen has one spot available. Acupuncture, midwifery and chiropractic care are essential services and will continue through Stage 4 restrictions. You are allowed to travel more than 5km to access these services. Massage is not essential at this stage, although our associations are working hard to change that. We will keep you updated if this changes. Stay safe and stay well

10.01.2022 Dont forget the Healing Circle is happening tonight, online. Tap the link or message Dana to reserve a spot 0403 192 867

09.01.2022 Some really useful information from Denise, our Midwife.

08.01.2022 I wonder what the chances are of there being a baby boom at the end of this year..? Pretty good I'd wager! If the idea of shared care midwifery appeals to you then now is a good time to start researching your options. Denise Jenkins is offering her expertise from our clinic, more information can be found at her website www.denisejenkins.com.au, or have a chat on 0416 509 195

07.01.2022 Remembrance Day 11am, 11th November marks 102 years since the guns fell silent. We will remember them

06.01.2022 There are two appointments available today with Nadia. Contact her directly or book through MINDBODY. Please note: we are taking extra precautions with cleaning and sanitising between clients. Nadia also chooses to wear a mask whilst treating. Stay safe everyone!

05.01.2022 Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there, for those that have left us and for those that are about to be! Thank you for your support, love, and sacrifice, for all the lessons and terrible jokes. This day is all about you, sending all the iso-love and appreciation.

05.01.2022 Whats to be done on such a cold, wintery day...cant go out, limited contact with our friends and loved ones, feeling a bit bored and restless. Denise has the right idea. A lounge room picnic, some good tunes and embracing your space at home. There is a delightful joy to be found in simple things right now, and this picnic box looks amazing (the wine is just for balance, obviously!) Nourishing your soul can be done in so many ways, dont forget the small things.

05.01.2022 Be Kind We all handle this isolation differently, some are happy to hibernate, some are really struggling with the lack of connection. ultimately it is kindness that will get us all through this together. Kindness for the people in your community, but also kindness towards yourself. Its ok to feel anxious, or scared, or vulnerable, lots of us are feeling the same way. Check in with your friends and neighbours, be patient at the supermarket (if youre brave enough to go!),... and know that we are all doing our best. We are going to be ok xxx #bekind #besafe #wearamask #washyourhands #dontlickyourneighbour #fiveelementshealthandvitality #northfitzroy See more

04.01.2022 A little bit of shadow play on this sunny Saturday! Even a hint of a rainbow spot! . . . .... #shadows #fiveelementshealthandvitality #saturdaysun #remedialmassage #endofautumn See more

03.01.2022 This is worth a read, to help give some structure to your day and break it into manageable chunks. Trying to find a new sense of normal can be a little daunting and surreal, this psychologist has some very good tips. We hope everyone is staying safe and well

03.01.2022 Join Dana for tonights Healing Circle. Book via the link.

03.01.2022 Looks like it is going to be a few more weeks yet before we can take massage bookings, folks. I secretly had my fingers crossed that remedial massage would open up a little sooner but it appears not to be, we will be included in the third step due to commence on October 26th. Our associations are still advocating for more information and clarification and I'll update as soon as I have more info at hand. If anyone needs to have a chat to get updates feel free to give Kri...sten a call 0402 134 107 There will be some relaxing of restrictions for Allied Health practitioners from the 28th of September, which includes acupuncture. Contact Nadia to find out more 0411 962 489 We hope everyone is hanging in there, not much longer to go xxx

02.01.2022 Finally! It’s official!! Massage is no longer restricted and we can take bookings again. As predicted spots have filled very quickly so it’s a good idea to plan ahead to snag an appointment. Our Covid safe plans are in place which does mean that we all still need to wear masks while in the clinic, and if you feel any sign of illness then we are happy to reschedule. ... Jump on to MindBody to book online, or call Kristen 0402 134 107 or Nadia 0411 962 489 We can’t wait to see you!
