strongly against PT to use so called "dry needling"
 

"Dry needling" is a joking. PT uses these acupuncture needles to treat human body and given a name as "dry needling" or "drying needle" without any sufficient training. This type treatment should not be allowed. It is unsafe, PT has not enough training to use any acupuncture needling technique.
