Talk:Prescribing Rights in the UK

 In the United States the ability to inject for dry needling has recently become a hot topic. Our physical therapy licenses are regulated at the state level and the ability to penetrate the skin is limited in some states.

For example, Tennessee just recently codified physical therapists' ability to penetrate the skin and perform dry needling (2011). Texas physical therapists are also performing this technique.

In Florida, due to existing language prohibiting physical therapists from penetrating the skin, the ability to perform dry needling seems like it will be a long shot.
