As a Ph.D. scientist from Johns Hopkins and having completed my Master's from Virginia University of Integrative Medicine this Amendment will HURT clients who come for dry needling under Athletic Trainers supervision. Athletic Trainers DO NOT have the knowledge nor proper training to administer dry needling. If you vote for this amendment you will be putting innocent clients in DANGER under the supervision of someone who does NOT understand the depth of Traditional Chinese Medicine. This is a WRONG amendment. This is about MONEY. In good conscience, please do NOT pass this amendment. You will be hurting your constituents who believe that you are knowledgeable and voting with their best interests. Think about this--A weekend training workshop (AT trainers) versus a 4-year degree (Masters and Doctorates in Oriental Medicine) is NOT the same thing!! Please vote your conscience and DO THE RIGHT THING!!
