Osteopractic PT

There is no evidence to date that PTAs have more adverse events than PTs when using spinal/extremity non-thrust mobilization or thrust manipulation. Why is @AAOMPT trying to stop PTAs from using non-thrust & thrust manipulation (a non-invasive procedure)? Seems to be more about protection of themselves, not protection of the public. PTAs in AL, AZ, IL, KY & TX can already legally use #dryneedling (an invasive procedure) @APTA_official

Which patients with knee #osteoarthritis are most likely to experience a successful outcome to periosteal & intra-articular electrical dry needling (PIEDN)? The results on 586 patients presented in Reno #AAOMPT2025 facebook.com/share/v/1BT1fG3…

Why passive interventions for some patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain conditions are sometimes appropriate #AAOMPT2025 #Reno #AAMTFellowship

Congrats 🎉 to the 52 new graduates 🎓 of the #AAMTFellowship in Reno at #AAOMPT2025 and well done AAMT faculty for achieving 14 peer-reviewed journal publications in 2025. Brilliant🔝 team work by all. spinalmanipulation.org/wp-co…

Super proud of the hard work that each of 52 #AAMTFellowship graduates put in over the past 12-months to attain the FAAOMPT credential. What an inspiring weekend in #Reno at #AAOMPT2025

I will be presenting the results at #AAOMPT2025 to the Predictors of Response to Periosteal & Intra-Articular Electrical Dry Needling (PIEDN) in 586 Patients with Knee #Osteoarthritis on Saturday November 8th at 10:15 am. See you in Reno #Nevada ! Does age, BMI, duration of symptoms (chronicity), number of PIEDN treatment sessions etc affect the outcome to PIEDN?

If you are a PT in Massachusetts, call & email (and do NOT vote for) Julian Cyr @JulianCyr (State Senator for Cape Cod & the Islands) @APTA_official @APTAMASSIG @Aptaofma Reason: He introduced SB1402 that will create massive UNNECESSARY hurdles (500 didactic + 150 DN hours) for PTs using #dryneedling in MA. No needle retention, no electric stimulation, AND the “acupuncturists” — who got their degree from strip mall “acupuncture colleges” — will get to test PTs (7-year DPTs) on Clean Needle Technique. Big political MISCALCULATION by State Senator Julian Cyr. It isn’t about “public safety” — he likely has a relative or close friend that is an “acupuncturist”. malegislature.gov/Bills/192/… Effective immediately: all “acupuncturists” with degrees from strip mall “colleges” are banned from taking AAMT’s Certification in Dry Needling coursework.
