Needles should not be used by PTs. 

Only acupunctrists should be able to use needles.

I know that acupunctrists have fully educated about all points and functions. They know that some "triger" points can cause undesireble effect on our bodies, which PT woudl not know. Acupunctrists have much more way to treat the issue that all people can get good results without side effects. Not only acupunctrists treat bodies holistically   such as organ problems, mental problems, male and female issues and even caner but also can treat acute injury. They ave a lot of knowledge about body from both of western and eastern medicine view. On the other hand PT's dry neelde does not have enought scientific proof and they do not get educated about needelin as acupunctrists do. It would hurt people and it can be serious. I really do not agree that PTs use needles.
