Acupuncture is a Chinese physical therapy method that requires years of studying and practicing. The therapist should have sophisticated knowledge and intense practice to patients to ensure safety and accuracy. Dry needle has not been practiced long enough to show its effect and reliability.

In addition, as a patient, I am more concerned with the professional experience of the physical therapists as well as the reliability of the therapy method. Short period of training will not be enough for guarantee the therapists to be professional enough. Anyone who has positive experiences from dry needles does not have thorough knowledge about the risk it has. Some successful cases do not prove that no negative effect in the long run.
