Training in Nashville
A Nashville session covers Middle Tennessee and reaches across the state. Davidson, Williamson, Rutherford, Sumner and Wilson counties ring the city. Franklin and Brentwood are just south on I-65, Murfreesboro is about 40 minutes southeast on I-24, Clarksville is about an hour northwest, and Chattanooga is about two hours down I-24.
There are two formats, held to the same standard. In one, the instructor comes to your practice and teaches you and your staff on your own equipment, with the instructor’s travel inside the quote. In the other, you train at an instructor’s own working practice. Either way the session is private, the patient is real and has consented, and the scope is fixed before you book.
Who can train? Anyone legally able to provide the treatment in Tennessee. The license you hold is what counts, and Tennessee draws each license’s scope through its own statute and board. The two sections below walk through them, sources attached.
Local detail
Nashville at a glance.
The airport the instructor lands at, the counties a Nashville session covers, and the hospitals and medical schools in the city.
Getting here
For training at your own practice, the instructor flies into Nashville International Airport (BNA), run by the Metropolitan Nashville Airport Authority. Travel and lodging are included in the quote.
The area a Nashville session covers
Davidson, Williamson, Rutherford, Sumner, Wilson, Montgomery and Maury counties, and practices elsewhere in Tennessee. That includes Franklin, Brentwood, Murfreesboro, Smyrna, Hendersonville, Gallatin, Mount Juliet, Lebanon, Clarksville and Columbia. Practices in neighboring regions have their own pages: Atlanta, St. Louis and Indianapolis.
Health systems in Nashville
Nashville providers practice alongside Vanderbilt University Medical Center, an independent non-profit organization with academic affiliations with Vanderbilt University, whose clinical sites include Vanderbilt University Hospital and Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt; and Ascension Saint Thomas, whose history began with the mission of the Daughters of Charity and which has served Middle Tennessee for over 125 years. Nashville General Hospital, Nashville’s only public hospital, serves as the index teaching hospital for Meharry Medical College.
Medical schools in Nashville
The Vanderbilt University School of Medicine dates itself to 1874 and works out of buildings between the university campus and the medical center. Meharry Medical College was founded in 1876 as the Medical Department of Central Tennessee College and describes itself as the first medical school in the South for African Americans. It now includes schools of applied computational sciences, dentistry, global health, graduate studies and medicine.
Worth knowing
In 1875, Vanderbilt University awarded its very first degree, and it went to a medical student. Source
Tennessee scope
What each Tennessee license allows.
Your Tennessee license decides what you can do hands on. Here is our reading of Tennessee law for each license we train, as of October 2026, with the statute, rule or board page linked. Take it as a starting point; it is not legal advice.
It is your responsibility to confirm the modality is legal in your state for your license. Do that before you book. The authority on your own scope is your licensing board, not us.
Physicians, MD and DO
Tennessee licenses medical doctors through the Board of Medical Examiners and osteopathic physicians through the Board of Osteopathic Examination. Public Chapter 1016 (2026) lets a physician perform stem cell therapy or regenerative medicine therapy that is not FDA approved, if it is used for a treatment or procedure within the physician’s scope of practice. Source Under the Board of Medical Examiners’ delegation policy, the delegating physician is responsible for every delegated task, and may delegate only acts the employee is educated or trained for and currently competent to perform. Source
Nurse practitioners
Tennessee has restricted practice for nurse practitioners, according to the AANP. Source A nurse practitioner who holds a certificate of fitness may prescribe. The nurse practitioner files a notice with the Board of Nursing naming the licensed physician collaborating with the nurse practitioner who has control and responsibility for prescriptive services, and keeps a copy of the protocol in use at the practice location. Source How we read it: the procedures you take on in a course should sit inside the protocol you work under with your collaborating physician.
Physician assistants
Tennessee physician assistants are licensed by the Board of Physician Assistants, an independent board since 2021. A PA performs diagnosis and treatment under a protocol or collaborative agreement, within the usual scope of practice of the collaborating physician, and only services the PA is prepared for by education, training and experience and competent to perform. Public Chapter 1042 (2024) added an endorsement, at a minimum 6,000 hours of documented postgraduate clinical experience, for practice under a collaborative agreement, effective once rules on those agreements are promulgated. Source How we read it: confirm with the board which framework applies to you today.
Registered nurses
Tennessee counts as professional nursing the “Administration of medications and treatments as prescribed by a licensed physician, dentist, podiatrist, or nurse authorized to prescribe pursuant to § 63-7-123.” Source In a physician’s office, the Board of Medical Examiners’ delegation policy covers RNs among other supervisees: delegated tasks may only be performed while the physician is either on site or immediately available, by telephone or video, for communication and consultation. Source The Board of Nursing’s decision-making guidelines ask for documented evidence of experience and initial and continued competencies before a nurse takes on an activity. Source
Chiropractors
Tennessee’s chiropractic statute says: “Nothing in this chapter authorizes a chiropractic physician to engage in the practice of medicine and surgery or osteopathy, as defined in chapters 6 and 9 of this title, or to prescribe legend drugs or controlled substances.” Acupuncture is allowed to a chiropractic physician who has completed 250 hours of an accredited acupuncture course and passed the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners acupuncture exam. Source Before you book an injection course, put the question to the Board of Chiropractic Examiners.
Physical therapists
Tennessee’s definition of physical therapy lists the interventions a physical therapist may design and carry out, from therapeutic exercise, manual therapy and wound care to physical agents and electrotherapeutic modalities, and it names dry needling. Injections do not appear in it. Source The Board of Physical Therapy keeps its own list of approved dry needling courses. Source Check an injection course against your scope with the board first.
Tennessee law
The Tennessee rules that touch regenerative medicine.
State law in this field changes, sometimes more than once a year. Our reading of each state, with its sources and the date we checked, is on the rules by state page. It is a starting point, not legal advice.
Public Chapter 1016, stem cell therapy (2026)
HB 2246 was signed on May 19, 2026, and became Public Chapter 1016, with effective dates of May 19, 2026 and July 1, 2026. It authorizes a physician to perform stem cell therapy or regenerative medicine therapy that is not approved by the FDA, if the therapy is used for a treatment or procedure within the physician’s scope of practice, and it amends Titles 63 and 68 of the Tennessee Code. Source
Sourcing, notice and consent
The Tennessee House Republican Caucus summary of the bill, issued when it passed the House, says the cells and tissues must come from a facility registered with the FDA or an accredited third party, and cannot be “derived from an aborted unborn child.” Advertisements for treatments that are not FDA approved must include a disclosure notice, and the physician must obtain written consent signed by the patient or the patient’s representative before treatment. The provisions other than rulemaking took effect July 1, 2026. Source
Right to Try
Tennessee’s Phil Timp-Amanda Wilcox Right to Try Act covers a patient with an advanced illness, attested to by the treating physician and confirmed by a second physician. The patient must have considered all other FDA approved options, be unable to enter, or be accepted within one week of applying to, a clinical trial within 50 miles, have the physician’s recommendation and give written informed consent. It applies to a drug, biological product or device that has completed phase 1 of a clinical trial and is not yet approved for general use. Source
Federal rules still apply
Tennessee law sits on top of federal law, not in place of it. The FDA’s rules for human cells, tissues, and cellular and tissue-based products apply in every state. Our summary is in the federal section of the rules by state page.
Formats and pricing
Two ways to train in Nashville, and both are private.
The hands-on work with a consenting patient is the same either way. What changes is whose room it is, and who from your practice is in it. Both prices are starting points: the quote depends on the course, how many people are training and how much of the curriculum is built around you.

Common questions
What Nashville providers ask before they book.
How much does training in Nashville cost?
Training inside your own practice in Nashville starts at $10,000, with the instructor's travel and lodging included. Training at an instructor's location starts at $5,000. Both are starting points. The quote depends on the discipline, the instructor, how many people are training and how much of the curriculum is built around you.
Who can perform stem cell therapy under Tennessee's 2026 law?
Public Chapter 1016 authorizes a physician to perform stem cell therapy or regenerative medicine therapy that is not FDA approved, when it is used for a treatment or procedure within the physician's scope of practice. How we read it: the grant is written for physicians. Whether a given product or procedure falls under it, and what role others in the practice may play, is a question for your counsel and your board. Our reading is on the rules by state page.
Can a Tennessee NP or PA do the hands-on part?
Within your Tennessee scope, yes. A nurse practitioner prescribes under a protocol with a collaborating physician named to the Board of Nursing. A physician assistant works under a protocol or a collaborative agreement, within the collaborating physician's usual scope. Bring the protocol or agreement when we plan the session, and we fit the hands-on plan to it before you book.
I'm not licensed in Tennessee. Can I train in Nashville?
Let us know when you request a date. If the instructor travels to you, you train in your own practice under the license you hold there. If you come to an instructor's location in Tennessee, your hands-on part turns on your Tennessee licensure, and we set it with you before you book.

Important information
Read this before you book.
Know what a course is not before you book. It won’t make you a specialist. It carries no CMEs, credit hours or accreditation, and it doesn’t cover your malpractice: you arrange that yourself. No one can promise you outcomes. It is education for licensed providers, not medical or legal advice, and some products and modalities discussed are not FDA approved or cleared for the uses discussed. The Certificate of Completion is not a license or a board certification, and it does not expand your scope of practice. Read the full notes.
