Another week and yet another all too common story (from the Herald Sun) of a dry needler puncturing someones lung.
A warning has been issued over dry needling treatments after a Melbourne man says a botched procedure left him with a punctured lung.
James Pryor, a 30-year-old mechanic, had an ache in his neck and shoulder when he went to see an osteopath to get dry needling.
Within an hour of leaving the clinic, in Melbourne’s outer east, he said his chest was so sore he thought he was having a heart attack.
He went to hospital and an x-ray confirmed he had a punctured lung, which has kept him off work for the past two weeks and caused him ongoing chest pain. The stiffness in his neck was also lingering, he said.
Mr Pryor lodged a complaint with the Australian Health Practitioners Regulation Agency and has pursued legal action against the osteopath who carried out the treatment, alleging medical negligence.
“This is serious, this is not something people can take lightly. It needs to be addressed, people need to be qualified and registered and have the right amount of training."
Samuel..can you share a little of the difference between your work & dry needling?
Getting To The Point Acupuncture Documentary Episode 1
“Children’s Hospital of Orange County”
This video was made by Acupuncture Now Foundation (ANF) and filmmaker Doug Dearth.
Over the 30 minute video, you’ll see how acupuncture was incorporated into the treatment plan for 2 boys with brain cancer.
The video documents the treatment, but also the impact that acupuncture had on the children and their families.
This is a must-see documentary and a great example of how acupuncture can be incorporated into a medical health system.

It was a privilege to meet Ruth McCarty and Dr Bill Louden at the conference in Estoril, Portugal. Dr Louden made some very intelligent and articulate comments in the forum on Validation and Challenges.
