Justin Green L.Ac., B.S., MAOM, is the owner of Montana Acupuncture and Wellness Pharmacy, an acupuncture and herbal medicine clinic in Kalispell, Montana since 2003. Based on his years of practicing and teaching yoga and tai chi, he founded and created, TheRackUSA, a simple yet sophisticated system of stretching and body movements utilizing a hand crafted, meticulously designed, and convenient wooden bench to maintain flexibility and combat the chronic pain and stiffness of injuries and aging. He is a Montana Licensed Acupuncturist who completed his Masters of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine academics and residency training at Southwest Acupuncture College in Santa Fe, New Mexico after completing his Bachelors of Science in Biology at the University of California in Santa Cruz.
Prior to practicing acupuncture, Justin had a 15 year international professional sports career. BMX bicycle racing took him all over the country and the world winning many national and world titles in Chile and Brazil. During the late 1980’s and early 1990’s, he was the fastest BMX racer in the world. He was on the cover of BMX magazines and was a local and national celebrity in the BMX world. Those years of intense competition took their toll on his body. He suffered numerous injuries such as bilateral ACL knee repairs, lower back disk and sciatic nerve injury, and neck injuries leading to years of chronic pain in his knees, lower back, and neck. Justin’s journey of healing his own chronic pain serves as a testament to the power of acupuncture, herbs, and stretching. His unique background gives him a special insight into the needs of his patients managing and healing their own chronic pain.
Over his more than 20 years of clinical practice, Justin has mentored with world famous Doctors of Acupuncture and East Asian Medicine like Bob Doane, the creator of the most effective acupuncture distal technique, DNA, and refinement of Pulse Diagnosis for the effective use of herbal medicine and the treatment of internal organ disorders; and Matt Callison, creator of the highly prestigious motor and trigger point therapy (dry needling) for acute and chronic pain and orthopedic and sports medicine; and Susan Johnson, who gave him special training on Masters Tung’s style of treatment, a internationally famous style of acupuncture; to name a few.
For over 12 years Justin was part of a prestigious, innovative, and integrated pain clinic team of Anesthesiologists, Physicians assistants, Osteopathic doctors, chiropractors, and counselors specializing in pain management, acute and chronic pain, and the pain medication addiction epidemic.
Today, Montana Acupuncture and Wellness Pharmacy focuses on acute and chronic pain in the head, neck, hand, low back, and knee; Women’s hormonal health including endometriosis, heavy menstrual bleeding, menstrual pain, infertility, PCOS; Men’s hormonal health including ED and Cardiovascular disease; and general conditions like fibromyalgia, fatigue, insomnia, and anxiety.
At Montana Acupuncture and Wellness pharmacy, Justin prides himself on his years of experience, highly refined and integrated approach to helping people age gracefully while increasing or maintaining their vigor and vitality. Something that is becoming increasingly rare in modern culture. Just like the ancient doctors helped the Emperor do. Thats why this medicine is called the “Emperor’s medicine.”
Justin enjoys living pain free, exercising, stretching, reading books about history, health, and business, swimming and paddle boarding in the beautiful montana lakes during the summer, snowboarding in the winter, and most of all, spending quality time with his wife and kids.
