Acupuncture, as other healing professions, has established boundaries as outlined by the Board of Medicine. The public trusts these guidelines. When a profession, in this case that of Physical Therapy, is invading the Acupuncture profession by relabeling the needling technique, while not providing the background of education and saftey training as required by licensed Acupuncturists, the public is mislead and confused What happens to responsibility and ethics?
