Douglas Womack studied acupuncture in China, and during that time he tended to 100 patients a day under the supervision of his mentors. That extreme experience has made Womack pretty confident when it comes to applying Eastern medicine in the West. Since March 2008, when he moved from Houston and opened his acupuncture practice in Missoula, he’s worked to help all sorts of people suffering from chronic pain. In his free time, he researches his practice. He also still stays in touch with his Chinese mentors. When you think about someone sticking needles into all parts of your body, those things seem all the more important, don’t they?
