Support for Dry Needling as part of PT practice
 

Dry Needling is an intervention utilized by PT’s to alleviate pain and maximize function in their patients. The proposed regulations support this. After a firm foundation of knowledge is obtained in graduate schools, PT’s continue their training in performing this intervention based in research. Full support for this PT ability.
