Oppose PT dry needling
 

With only extremely limited training, dry needling by PT can cause seriously and permanently damage to patient, which will not cause patient's permanent panic, it will also increase government and insurance company's tremendous cost to compensate the malpractice done by PT without enough and proper training.
