Choose the person as well as the appointment.
At the Worthing clinic, you have a choice of practitioners with different routes into acupuncture and massage. Sunny brings a background in nursing and Chinese medicine; Laëtitia’s experience includes yoga teaching, massage and Classical Chinese Medicine. Their profiles give you a starting point for deciding who you would like to see. You can also ask about their approach before arranging a visit, especially if you have a preference for a particular service.
Both practitioners see people at 140 South Street, Worthing BN14 7NB. Neijing’s Google opening hours for Worthing are Monday, 2pm–7pm. A shared clinic listing does not establish each practitioner’s complete diary, so please confirm the available days and times with the person you choose. This is particularly useful when enquiring for the first time: name Worthing and your preferred practitioner so the conversation can be directed appropriately.
Your appointment can begin with straightforward questions. What will the consultation cover? Is the service you are interested in available? How long should you set aside, and what will it cost? Answering these questions in advance helps you understand the visit and avoids treating different practitioners’ fees or methods as interchangeable. There is no requirement to commit to a series of sessions before you have discussed the proposed plan.
Contact the Worthing clinicDIFFERENT TOOLS. ONE PERSONAL PLAN.
Acupuncture &
individual care.
Your Worthing practitioner will explain the approaches they offer and discuss which, if any, may suit the appointment you are considering. Sunny and Laëtitia have different training histories, and services should be confirmed with the person you choose. Start with your preferences and questions rather than assuming every appointment includes the same combination of needles or hands-on care.
Individual acupuncture care
An acupuncture appointment includes a conversation about your health history, current concerns and other care, followed by an assessment and discussion of the approach. Fine needles may be placed at selected points if you decide to proceed. Sunny and Laëtitia each draw on Chinese medicine training, but their practical choices may differ. Ask your chosen practitioner to explain the method, the evidence relevant to your concern and any limits or possible unwanted effects.
Massage with the right practitioner
Both Sunny and Laëtitia have massage backgrounds. Laëtitia’s training includes massage in Chiang Mai, Thailand, followed by Swedish and deep tissue massage study at the London School of Massage. Sunny combines massage experience with her acupuncture practice and healthcare background. If you want massage on its own, say so in your enquiry and confirm the type of appointment, its duration and fee. An acupuncture price should not automatically be assumed to apply to massage.
Preferences matter throughout
You may want to ask about needles, pressure during massage, clothing or the areas that might be treated. Bring these questions into the conversation before treatment begins. You can ask for an explanation, a pause or a change in the agreed approach if something is uncomfortable. Your practitioner can discuss available options without assuming that the same combination of techniques is right for everyone or that a stronger sensation is a better result.
Reviewing an individual plan
A useful plan includes a point at which you look back at the experience together. Discuss any changes you notice, unwanted effects, the cost of further visits and whether to continue, adapt or stop. You can also consider the practical side: which appointment times work for you, whether the approach fits your preferences and what you would like to understand before arranging another visit.
Your practitioner discusses suitability before treatment. Responses vary; acupuncture complements care and does not replace medical diagnosis, prescribed treatment or urgent attention.

Let’s talkYour first appointment, step by step.
Make your choice clear
Start your enquiry with Worthing, your preferred practitioner and the service you would like to discuss. If you are undecided, read both profiles and ask about the differences that matter to you. Confirm the fee, length and available appointment time with the person you will see.
Bring the relevant history
At your consultation, explain your concerns, current medicines, relevant conditions and any other treatment. Mention pregnancy, bleeding risks, skin problems or worries about needles. Your own priorities are useful too: say what you hope to understand and which changes would matter in your everyday life.
Leave with clear information
Ask about possible after-effects and how to contact the practitioner if you are concerned. Check that you feel steady before travelling, and follow any individual advice discussed. If you return, review what has happened since the previous visit rather than assuming every appointment should follow the same pattern.
