Patient of dry needling for several years
 

I have been a patient of dry needling for several years some of the dry needling that I've had in my face or my jaw and places on my neck and on my spine I would only trust every well-trained physical therapist to do these things.  Physical therapist deals and muscles with the dry needling it is to make the muscle release its toxins I feel they're the only ones well-trained enough to do dry needling I wouldn't want to go to a chiropractor to have this done please keep  the regulation with the physical therapist thank  you.
