## Training in Seattle

Seattle-area providers practice from Everett and Lynnwood in Snohomish County, through Seattle, Bellevue, Redmond, Kirkland, Renton and Kent, down to Tacoma in Pierce County, with Kitsap a ferry ride across the Sound. Everett is roughly half an hour north on I-5 without traffic, Tacoma about forty-five minutes south, and Olympia about an hour.

The instructor can come to your practice and teach you and your staff on your own equipment and your own consenting patients, with travel inside the quote. If you would rather get out of the clinic, you train at an instructor’s own working practice instead. Either way it is a private session, and the scope is settled before you book.

Who can train? Anyone legally able to provide the treatment in Washington. Your license sets that, and Washington draws its own lines for each one, laid out with sources in the two sections below.

Local detail

## Seattle at a glance.

The airport the instructor uses, the Puget Sound counties a Seattle session covers, and the health systems around them.

### Getting here

The instructor flies into [Seattle-Tacoma International Airport](https://www.portseattle.org/places/sea-tac-airport) (SEA), run by the Port of Seattle, which sits between Seattle and Tacoma and serves the whole Puget Sound area. Travel and lodging come included in the quote.

### The area a Seattle session covers

King, Snohomish, Pierce and Kitsap counties, with Thurston at the south end: Seattle, Bellevue, Redmond, Kirkland, Renton, Kent, Federal Way, Everett, Lynnwood, Tacoma, Bremerton and Olympia. Southwest Washington around Vancouver is closer to [Portland](/portland-oregon/), though Washington law still governs those practices. British Columbia has its own page at [Vancouver, British Columbia](/vancouver-british-columbia/).

### UW Medicine and Harborview

The [UW School of Medicine](https://www.uwmedicine.org/school-of-medicine/about) was founded in 1946 and calls itself the only five-state medical school in the country, through the WWAMI region of Washington, Wyoming, Alaska, Montana and Idaho. [Harborview Medical Center](https://www.uwmedicine.org/locations/harborview-medical-center) is owned by King County, governed by a county-appointed board of trustees and managed under contract by the University of Washington. It describes itself as the only designated Level I adult and pediatric trauma and verified burn center in the state.

### Health systems around Puget Sound

[Swedish](https://www.swedish.org/about), with beginnings in 1910, describes itself as the largest not-for-profit healthcare provider in the greater Seattle area, with hospital campuses at First Hill, Cherry Hill, Ballard, Edmonds and Issaquah. [Virginia Mason Franciscan Health](https://www.vmfh.org/about-vmfh/why-choose-vmfh/our-history) came from the integration of Virginia Mason and CHI Franciscan. In Tacoma, [MultiCare](https://www.multicare.org/about/), a locally governed, nonprofit health system, traces its roots to 1882 and the founding of Tacoma’s first hospital.

### Worth knowing

Virginia Mason Hospital opened in 1920 with six doctor offices. Two years later, its School of Nursing admitted the first of hundreds of students it would educate. [Source](https://www.vmfh.org/about-vmfh/why-choose-vmfh/our-history)

Washington scope

## What each Washington license allows.

The license you hold sets what you can do hands on, in Washington as everywhere else. Here is how Washington law reads for each license we train, as of October 2026, with the statute or rule linked. Use it as a starting point, 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

The [Washington Medical Commission](https://wmc.wa.gov/) licenses MDs, and the [Board of Osteopathic Medicine and Surgery](https://doh.wa.gov/licenses-permits-and-certificates/professions-new-renew-or-update/osteopathic-physician-and-surgeon/board-osteopathic-medicine-and-surgery) regulates DOs. Washington’s definition of practicing medicine includes anyone who “administers or prescribes drugs or medicinal preparations to be used by any other person” or “severs or penetrates the tissues of human beings.” [Source](https://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=18.71.011) Osteopathic medicine and surgery covers “the use of any and all methods” for physical and mental conditions, including osteopathic manipulative therapy. [Source](https://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=18.57.001) How we read it: the hands-on work we teach sits inside a physician’s license, and the stem cell notice rule below applies as well.

### Nurse practitioners

Washington has full practice for nurse practitioners, according to the AANP. [Source](https://www.aanp.org/advocacy/washington) The nursing rule calls the ARNP a licensed independent practitioner and lets an ARNP “perform procedures or provide care services that are within the ARNP’s scope of practice according to a commission approved certifying body.” [Source](https://app.leg.wa.gov/WAC/default.aspx?cite=246-840-300) On June 30, 2027 the statute’s title changes to advanced practice registered nurse. [Source](https://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=18.79.050) How we read it: your certifying body’s scope is the line. If a procedure sits near its edge, ask the [Washington State Board of Nursing](https://nursing.wa.gov/) first.

### Physician assistants

The [Washington Medical Commission](https://wmc.wa.gov/) licenses PAs. Before starting practice, a Washington PA must enter into a collaboration agreement that identifies at least one participating physician. [Source](https://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=18.71A.120) A PA with fewer than 4,000 hours of postgraduate clinical practice works under the supervision of a participating physician. With 4,000 or more, a PA may work in collaboration with one, provided they have completed 2,000 or more supervised hours in the chosen specialty, and a change of specialty means the first 2,000 hours in the new one are supervised. [Source](https://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=18.71A.030)

### Registered nurses

The [Washington State Board of Nursing](https://nursing.wa.gov/) licenses RNs. Washington’s definition of registered nursing practice includes “the executing of medical regimen as prescribed by a licensed physician and surgeon, dentist, osteopathic physician and surgeon, podiatric physician and surgeon, physician assistant, or advanced practice registered nurse.” [Source](https://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=18.79.040) How we read it: an RN’s hands-on part, the blood draw and the injection alike, runs on an order from one of those practitioners and stays inside it. Questions past the order go to the board.

### Chiropractors

The [Chiropractic Quality Assurance Commission](https://doh.wa.gov/licenses-permits-and-certificates/professions-new-renew-or-update/chiropractor-chiropractic-x-ray-technician/commission-information) regulates Washington chiropractors. The statute says chiropractic care “shall not include the prescription or dispensing of any medicine or drug, the practice of obstetrics or surgery, the use of x-rays or any other form of radiation for therapeutic purposes, colonic irrigation, or any form of venipuncture.” [Source](https://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=18.25.005) How we read it: with venipuncture ruled out, even the blood draw for PRP falls outside a Washington chiropractic license. Take any course question to the commission first.

### Physical therapists

The [Board of Physical Therapy](https://doh.wa.gov/licenses-permits-and-certificates/professions-new-renew-or-update/physical-therapist-and-physical-therapist-assistant/board-physical-therapy) regulates Washington PTs. Washington counts intramuscular needling, also known as dry needling, as physical therapy: a single use, sterile filiform needle that penetrates the skin to stimulate underlying myofascial trigger points and connective and muscular tissues. The statute adds that it “requires an examination and diagnosis,” and it lists no injections. [Source](https://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=18.74.010) How we read it: injection courses are outside a Washington PT license. Ask the board before you book.

Washington law

## The Washington 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](/regenerative-medicine-laws-by-state/#washington). It is a starting point, not legal advice.

### ESHB 2356, the stem cell notice (2018)

Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2356 was approved on March 22, 2018 and took effect on June 7, 2018. [Source](https://lawfilesext.leg.wa.gov/biennium/2017-18/Pdf/Bills/Session%20Laws/House/2356-S.SL.pdf) Now RCW 18.130.420, it requires a license holder who performs a stem cell therapy that is not FDA approved to give the patient a written notice first. It opens: “THIS NOTICE MUST BE PROVIDED TO YOU UNDER WASHINGTON LAW. This health care practitioner performs one or more stem cell therapies that have not yet been approved by the United States food and drug administration.” The notice must be at least 8.5 by 11 inches, in no less than forty point type, and displayed at the entrance and where patients can see it. [Source](https://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=18.130.420)

### Advertising and consent

Every advertisement for the therapy must include the notice, in a font no smaller than the largest one in the ad, or spoken clearly in an ad that is not in print. The license holder must also get a signed consent form covering the nature and character of the treatment, including its FDA approval status, the anticipated results, the recognized alternatives, and the recognized serious possible risks, complications and anticipated benefits. The law defines stem cell therapy as a therapy involving the use of human cells, tissues, or cellular or tissue-based products, and a violation is unprofessional conduct. [Source](https://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=18.130.420)

### Right to Try (SSB 5035, 2017)

Washington’s Right to Try law, Substitute Senate Bill 5035, took effect on July 23, 2017, and a manufacturer “may, but is not required to,” make the product available. [Source](https://lawfilesext.leg.wa.gov/biennium/2017-18/Pdf/Bills/Session%20Laws/Senate/5035-S.SL.pdf) A patient qualifies at 18 or older and as a Washington resident, when the treating physician attests to a serious or immediately life-threatening condition and recommends the investigational product, and the patient, told of the FDA approved options and unable to join a clinical trial for the product, gives written informed consent. [Source](https://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=69.77.040)

### Federal rules still apply

Washington 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](/regenerative-medicine-laws-by-state/#federal) of the rules by state page.

Formats and pricing

## Two ways to train in Seattle, 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.

### At an instructor location

From $5,000

You come to us, at an instructor’s own working practice.

Common questions

## What Seattle providers ask before they book.

### How much does training in Seattle cost?

Training inside your own practice in Seattle 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.

### Does Washington's stem cell notice law cover PRP?

RCW 18.130.420 defines stem cell therapy as a therapy involving the use of human cells, tissues, or cellular or tissue-based products. Platelet-rich plasma is not named in it. Whether your product or procedure falls inside that definition is for your counsel and the board or commission that licenses you to answer. Our reading and its source are on the [rules by state page](/regenerative-medicine-laws-by-state/#washington).

### Can a Washington NP or PA do the hands-on part?

Within your Washington scope, yes. An ARNP practices as a licensed independent practitioner, within the scope set by the certifying body. A PA practices under a collaboration agreement, supervised until 4,000 postgraduate hours. Tell us your certifying body or send the agreement when we plan the session, and we shape the hands-on plan around it before you book.

### I'm not licensed in Washington. Can I train in Seattle?

Mention it when you request a date. If the instructor comes to you, you train inside your own practice, under the license you hold there. If you come to an instructor's location in Washington, your Washington licensure decides what you do hands on, and we set that plan 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](/our-courses/#rma-compliance).
