Mrs. McAuliffe --
I am writing you today
as a resident of your district, in Mountlake Terrace, and an opponent of
House Bill 1042 (to exclude dry needling from physical therapy) that is
currently in the Senate.
Personally, I was
first exposed to Functional Dry Needle (FDN) Therapy in December. I am a
competitive weightlifter and suffered a shoulder injury that my
orthopedist was unable to diagnose. Despite rest, it did not get better.
I reached out to my national weightlifting community and was introduced
to FDN via KinetaCore (a company that does continuing education for
PTs) through a national-level lifter that I look up to.
