Please oppose to dry needling by PT.
 

It is illegal for PT to use acupuncture needle to practice "dry needling ",it is illegal to bypass acupuncture law to practice "dry needling", it is also a public safety issue. It is irresponsible for untrained PT to practice acupuncture with the name of " dry needling.
