NO to ATs practicing Acupuncture/ DN
 

Dry needling is a single technique of acupuncture which is an invasive medical procedure, that requires proper training. Years on the case of acupuncturists. All of whom will oppose th8s. It's not an issue of scope, it's a matter of public health. NO to ATs using needles, refer to medical professionals.
