Acupuncturists complete 3-5 years of education and hundreds of clinical hours, plus pass a series of national board exams. They are sufficiently trained and experienced to needle patients to address various health concerns. They are trained in an entire body of medicine that informs the safe placement of needles. Why does the state keep trying to take needling from acupuncturists? First to chiropractors, physical therapists, and now trainers? Please keep needling in the hands of Acupuncturists! 

I oppose dry needling by any profession other than Acupuncture.
