Opposed to dry needing by PT / CA Lisensed Acupuncturist
 
*It is illegal for physical therapist to use acupuncture needle to practice "dry needling", *It is illegal to bypass the acupuncture law to practice " dry needing ", *It is irresponsible for untrained physical therapist to practice acupuncture with the name of " dry needing ". *It is also a public safety issue!
