In my hometown, we call acupuncture as dry needle. Dry needle, this name is from China. About 4000 years ago, a famous Chinese book Shan Hai Jing records "Bian Shi Zhen", it's using stone needle to treat patients. This stone needle is the earliest dry needle.

To protect customers benefit, we're strongly against physical therapists or other medical related people not graduated from traditional Chinese medicine university to use dry needle as a treatment method. And they are also required to have acupuncture lisence.

I'm Dr. Jing Chen, with 40 years Chinese medicine education and clinical experience. My published book Anatomical Atlas of Chinses Acupuncture Points, won 1st prize in the excellent scientific book competition in 1982 among China-wide. This book is translated to English, French, Japenese, etc. more than 10 languages worldwide. I spent 6 years to do research on the relationship between the acupuncture points and anatomical structure.
