I strongly urge you to deny physical therapists the ability to perform acupuncture by another name -- "dry needling". Let physical therapists and licensed acupuncturists stick to their particular areas of expertise for which each have had the requisite training. I am AGAINST "dry needling" by PTs.
Seriously consider the ramifications of allowing them to do so ESPECIALLY without requiring the same number of hours of training required for licensed acupuncturists.
Thank you.
