Acupuncture is a very specific practice based on very specific philosophy.
Physical Therapists are experts in muscular anatomy and function. The dry needling they do is a completely different practice from what Acupuncturists do. I support Physical Therapy professionals having the tools to do their work in the way they deem most effective for each patient and situation.
