Dry needle therapy is apart of acupuncture?should be registered as acupuncture?that is very important for the public health care safety..

Acupuncture own 4000years clinic history?including dry needle therapy skill and much successfull?in modern acupuncture?the acupuncturist understand modern medical anatomy and also follow Traditional Chinese Medicine methods work in great clinical field much big than dry needle therapy.

Acupuncturist need more than 3 years train?but dry needle therapist not. they can not do acupuncture?dry needle therapy?

We are not agree dry needle therapy registered as a new skill use in clinical?that is danger.
