Against physical therapists to practice dry needle
 

Dry needle is a type of acupuncture. The physical therapists have no rights to practice it according to law.  More importantly, they use the acupuncture needle and insert into body for treatment. And they do not admit it is acupuncture. This is wrong. This is not the fact. They have no moral. That is why I am against it.
