Yes to dry needling performed by qualified Pos
 

Dry needling is a truly beneficial service that is performed by trained and educated physical therapists. This practice should be allowed to continue to be performed by PTs. I know that our ortho doctors have even asked for it as part of PT/rehab after major surgeries.
