PERSONAL CARE, CLOSE TO HOME
Personal care
in Haywards Heath.
Three practitioners. Space to find your approach.
An acupuncture appointment is a personal choice, and the person you see is part of that decision. At Vinings Natural Health Centre in Haywards Heath, Sunny, Tanya Menzies and Lucy Sargent bring different professional histories to their work. Their backgrounds include nursing, massage and several approaches within Chinese medicine. Reading their individual profiles can help you identify whose experience you would like to discuss before arranging your first visit.
The clinic is at Vinings Natural Health Centre, Clover Court, Church Road, Haywards Heath RH16 3UF. The listed Neijing opening hours are Tuesday–Friday, 8am–6pm, and Saturday, 10am–4pm. These describe the clinic listing, rather than the individual availability of all three practitioners. Please confirm the diary of your chosen practitioner, the service, appointment length and current fee before travelling. Name Haywards Heath in your message, along with Sunny, Tanya or Lucy if you have a preference.
You can begin by explaining what brings you to the clinic and what you would like to understand. A consultation is an opportunity to discuss your history, ask about the approach and consider the options. It does not require you to accept a fixed treatment programme. Your priorities, other healthcare and practical preferences all belong in the conversation, so the next step is something you have had a chance to consider.

Acupuncture &
individual care.
The Haywards Heath team offers several approaches to acupuncture, with massage experience among some practitioners and additional techniques listed in their individual training histories. Discuss the available methods with Sunny, Tanya or Lucy before booking. Your consultation informs the proposed approach, and the practitioner explains its practical details, possible risks and relevant limits before you decide.
Acupuncture based on an assessment
Acupuncture involves fine needles placed at selected points following your consultation and assessment. The Haywards Heath team draws on approaches including Traditional Chinese Medicine, Five Element acupuncture and Classical Stems and Branches acupuncture. These are traditional frameworks that inform the practitioner’s choices. Ask how the proposed approach relates to your appointment, what sensations you may notice and what the relevant evidence and limits are for your concern.
Choosing available hands-on care
Sunny and Lucy’s profiles include massage experience. Tanya’s profile focuses on acupuncture and her nursing background, so massage should not be assumed to be part of every practitioner’s service. If you are interested in a needle-free appointment or in combining methods, mention that when enquiring. Confirm who offers the service, what it involves and whether its fee or length differs from the acupuncture options shown here.
Additional techniques, discussed individually
The practitioners’ training includes several other techniques. Sunny’s profile describes gua sha, cupping and moxibustion as possibilities after individual assessment. Tanya lists further study in fire cupping, moxibustion and auricular acupuncture; Lucy has additional training in auricular acupuncture and massage. Training information helps you ask informed questions, but is not a menu that will automatically be used in every visit. Discuss availability, suitability and what to expect with the person you choose.
A review point rather than a standard course
Before planning repeat appointments, agree what you would like to review and when. Consider the experience of treatment, any changes, unwanted effects, time and cost. Your practitioner can discuss whether to continue, adapt the approach or stop. A review also gives you a chance to raise new questions, explain any changes in your priorities and check that the appointment arrangement still works for you.
Your practitioner discusses suitability before treatment. Responses vary; acupuncture complements care and does not replace medical diagnosis, prescribed treatment or urgent attention.
