Dry needling by PT is a public safety issue! Physical therapists only receive less than 100 hours post graduate course for acupuncture. It is irresponsible for untrained physical therapists to practice acupuncture with the name of "dry needling". It is illegal for Physical therapists to use acupuncture needle to practice "dry needling", it is illegal to bypass acupuncture law to practice "dry needling".
