I am New York Licensed acupuncturist. I am writing to oppose PT to use dry needling technique. I was trained in China for 11 years full time to do acupuncture. Even in America, acupuncturist needs 4 years full time training. Dry needling is to use same needles and points as acupuncturist to treat patients. PT wants to do treatment, they must go to acupuncture school to do same training, otherwise, we oppose PT to use dry needling!    Yang
