100% against PTs to use dry needle !!!
 

whomever wants to puncture needles into a patient, please get a license!! Neither a MD or DO or LAC!!!

if you want to practice without a license and use the so called “qualified” less than 30 hrs class by FSBPT as sufficient training excuse. Sooner or later they will come up with some other training course to monopolize this health care field. Including chiropractor and acupuncturist and more! If FSBPT wants to add knife into their scope, one day they can be a surgeon . Yeah, they really think they can do everything
