Opposed to Dry Needling
 

The claim that Dry Needling is not acupuncture is ridiculous.  Acupuncturists undergo over 2000+ hours learning how to needle every point on the body safely, even 100 hours of Dry Needling education would be a far cry from what is appropriate.  Protect the public and keep the requirements for needling into a body as high as they should be.

Thank you,

Paul
