Better care, better economy - SAY NO TO DRY NEEDLING
 
Better. Improved. Greater than. Superior to. All of these words or phrases compliment those with a more profound education on whatever the subject manner may be. The same is true for the medicinal practice of acupuncture. Additionally, a greater differential of licensure (PTs as masters of their own arts, and Acupuncturists as masters of theirs) leads to improved care from both as well as creating job opportunities for the community. SAY NO TO PTs PERFORMING ACUPUNCTURE OR DRY NEEDLING
