Yes to Dry Needling
 

Dry needling is a form of therapy that physical therapists should be allowed to practice. I have been in clinics were patients have improved in their rehab because of the dry needling performed by their physical therapist. I also have personally received dry needling from a PT and have nothing but positive things to say about how it helped me with my musculoskeletal issues.
