You don't want a PT practicing Acupuncture on YOU!
 

I'm a manual PT x 26 years and Acupuncturist x16 years.  Trust me--you don't want a PT

Practicing Acupuncture on you or you family.   Please refer again to previous comments

And don't weigh comments by PTs equally as those by Acupuncturists--let's be fair.  We as

LAc's have quite a different motivation for disapproving of dry needling--and it's not related

To making money or playing with needles.    * Wishing for the law-makers a higher consciousness.*
