Dry Needling
 

Dry needling is absolutely dangerous and absurd.  After treating people in my Oriental Medical Clinic for over

30 years....I can tell you that acupuncture can be EXTREMELY dangerous if the practitioner does not have an

acupuncture license.  A pneumothorax is just one of the possibilities of someone causing in a patient who is

not properly trained....I could go on and on!!
