Oppose dry needling by PT without adequate training to ilegal practice
 

Welcom PT loves acupuncture needles, but for patient safety issure, you need to get adquate training and pass third party offer exam to show you in competence. please don't be to try to take a shortcut, only a few weeken hours training to practice dry needling, Because you do that may some time your treatment successfully, but may some time your treatment harm them. It is very dengerous.
