Cutting back camilias

Question

I have a large camilia bush that through the years had a large redtip bush behind and over it. This caused the the camilia to grow out instead of up. The redtip became diseased and I cut it down. The camilia has continued to grow out. How far can I cut the camilia back and not harm it in order to get the limbs to start to extend up.
Thanks Jerry Stroud
