## Training in St. Louis

The providers who ask us about St. Louis mostly practice in the city, St. Louis County and St. Charles County, from Clayton and Chesterfield out along I-70 to St. Peters, O’Fallon and Wentzville. Jefferson and Franklin counties fall inside the same trip, and Columbia is about two hours west on I-70. Across the Mississippi, a Metro East practice in Belleville or Edwardsville is licensed in Illinois, so Illinois law sets its scope, not Missouri’s.

You can train one of two ways. An instructor travels to your practice and teaches you and your team on your own equipment, with the trip built into the quote. Or you travel to an instructor’s own working practice and train there. Both are private sessions with a real, consenting patient, and we agree the scope with you before you book.

Who can train? Anyone legally able to provide the treatment in Missouri. Your license decides that, and Missouri ties nurse practitioners and physician assistants to a collaborating physician. The two sections below lay out each license, with the statute behind every line.

Local detail

## St. Louis at a glance.

Where the instructor flies in, the ground a St. Louis session covers, and the health systems around you.

### Getting here

For training inside your practice, the instructor flies into [St. Louis Lambert International Airport](https://www.flystl.com/) (STL) and drives on to you, whether that is Clayton, St. Charles or Edwardsville. The quote covers travel and lodging.

### The area a St. Louis session covers

St. Louis City and St. Louis, St. Charles, Jefferson and Franklin counties, plus the Illinois side of the river. That takes in Clayton, Kirkwood, Webster Groves, Chesterfield, Florissant, St. Charles, St. Peters, O’Fallon, Wentzville, Arnold and Washington, along with Belleville and Edwardsville for Illinois-licensed practices. The other side of the state has its own page in [Kansas City](/kansas-city-missouri/), and the nearest pages to the north and east are [Chicago](/chicago/) and [Indianapolis](/indianapolis/).

### Washington University and BJC

Providers here practice alongside [WashU Medicine](https://medicine.washu.edu/about/), founded in 1891, and [Barnes-Jewish Hospital](https://www.barnesjewish.org/About-Us), its affiliated teaching hospital. Barnes-Jewish was created by the 1996 merger of Barnes Hospital, opened in 1914, and The Jewish Hospital of St. Louis, opened in 1902, and in its own words it is the largest hospital in Missouri. It is a member of BJC HealthCare, part of [BJC Health](https://www.bjc.org/About-Us), a nonprofit system that cares for patients across Missouri and southern Illinois and, since January 1, 2024, includes Saint Luke’s in the Kansas City region.

### Saint Louis University, SSM Health and Mercy

[Saint Louis University School of Medicine](https://www.slu.edu/medicine/about/index.php) was established in 1836. [SSM Health](https://www.ssmhealth.com/about) describes itself as a Catholic, not-for-profit health system, with care delivery sites in Illinois, Missouri, Oklahoma and Wisconsin. [Mercy](https://www.mercy.net/about/) has its headquarters in Chesterfield, Missouri. Its health system was founded by the Sisters of Mercy in 1986, though the sisters had traveled to St. Louis back in 1856.

Missouri scope

## What each Missouri license allows.

What you can do with your hands in a Missouri session depends on the license you hold. Below is how Missouri law reads for each license we train, as of October 2026, with the statute linked. Take 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

Missouri physicians are licensed by the [State Board of Registration for the Healing Arts](https://pr.mo.gov/healingarts.asp). It is unlawful for anyone who is not a registered physician to practice medicine or surgery in any of its departments. [Source](https://revisor.mo.gov/main/OneSection.aspx?section=334.010) Missouri reads any reference in its statutes to “physician” or “M.D.” as including a doctor of osteopathy, so MDs and DOs stand on the same footing. [Source](https://revisor.mo.gov/main/OneSection.aspx?section=334.021) Missouri also licenses assistant physicians, medical school graduates who may not practice without an assistant physician collaborative practice arrangement. That arrangement limits them to primary care services in medically underserved rural or urban areas of the state. [Source](https://revisor.mo.gov/main/OneSection.aspx?section=334.036)

### Nurse practitioners

Missouri has restricted practice for nurse practitioners, according to the AANP. [Source](https://www.aanp.org/advocacy/missouri) Missouri law lets a physician enter collaborative practice arrangements with registered professional nurses, in the form of written agreements, jointly agreed-upon protocols or standing orders. The physician and the advanced practice registered nurse must maintain geographic proximity, except where the statute provides otherwise, and the physician must document at least a one-month period in which the APRN practiced with the physician continuously present before the APRN works where the physician is not. [Source](https://revisor.mo.gov/main/OneSection.aspx?section=334.104) Plan the hands-on work inside that arrangement.

### Physician assistants

A Missouri physician assistant may not practice without physician collaboration, or anywhere the collaborating physician is not immediately available for consultation, assistance and intervention, except as the statute provides and in an emergency. A physician assistant may not prescribe any drug, medicine, device or therapy except under a collaborative practice arrangement, and the pair must keep the geographic proximity the Board of Registration for the Healing Arts sets. [Source](https://revisor.mo.gov/main/OneSection.aspx?section=334.735) How we read it: the hands-on plan for a Missouri PA follows the collaborative practice arrangement, so bring it when we plan the session.

### Registered nurses

Missouri counts as professional nursing “the administration of medications and treatments as prescribed by a person licensed by a state regulatory board to prescribe medications and treatments.” [Source](https://revisor.mo.gov/main/OneSection.aspx?section=335.016) The same collaborative practice statute that covers advanced practice nurses lets a physician work with registered professional nurses through written agreements, protocols or standing orders. [Source](https://revisor.mo.gov/main/OneSection.aspx?section=334.104) How we read it: an RN’s part in a procedure starts from a licensed prescriber’s order. Where that line sits for a given task is a question for the [State Board of Nursing](https://pr.mo.gov/nursing.asp).

### Chiropractors

Missouri defines chiropractic as “the science and art of examination, diagnosis, adjustment, manipulation and treatment.” The definition shuts out operative surgery, obstetrics, osteopathy and podiatry, “nor the administration or prescribing of any drug or medicine nor the practice of medicine.” It may include meridian therapy, acupressure and acupuncture with the certification the board requires. [Source](https://revisor.mo.gov/main/OneSection.aspx?section=331.010) How we read it: an injection course sits close to that exclusion. Put the question to the [Board of Chiropractic Examiners](https://pr.mo.gov/chiropractors.asp) before you book.

### Physical therapists

Missouri physical therapists are licensed by the Board of Registration for the Healing Arts, which an Advisory Commission for Physical Therapists advises. [Source](https://revisor.mo.gov/main/OneSection.aspx?section=334.625) Physical therapy in Missouri does not include surgery, invasive tests, prescribing any drug or medicine, or giving any drug or medicine other than a topical agent administered on the direction of a physician. [Source](https://revisor.mo.gov/main/OneSection.aspx?section=334.500) A therapist with a doctorate of physical therapy, or five years of clinical practice, may evaluate and treat without a prescription, but must consult an approved health care provider or refer the patient on after ten visits or thirty days. [Source](https://revisor.mo.gov/main/OneSection.aspx?section=334.506)

Missouri law

## The Missouri 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/#missouri). It is a starting point, not legal advice.

### Stem cells in the Missouri Constitution (2006)

Missouri put stem cells into its constitution by initiative, adopted on November 7, 2006. Article III, Section 38(d) says that any stem cell research permitted under federal law may be conducted in Missouri, and that stem cell therapies permitted under federal law may be provided to patients in Missouri. It also says no person may clone or attempt to clone a human being, and bars buying or selling human blastocysts or eggs for stem cell research. How we read it: federal law sets the outer limit. We did not find a Missouri statute that requires a patient notice or consent form for stem cell or regenerative products. [Source](https://revisor.mo.gov/main/OneSection.aspx?section=III++++38%28d%29&bid=31788&constit=y)

### Right to Try

Missouri has its own Right to Try law, effective August 28, 2014. It lets a manufacturer make an investigational drug, biological product or device available to an eligible patient with a terminal illness, if the product has completed phase one of a clinical trial, is not FDA approved for general use and remains under investigation in a trial. Schedule I controlled substances are excluded. No state agency or board may act against a physician’s license based solely on the physician’s recommendation to an eligible patient about such a product. [Source](https://revisor.mo.gov/main/OneSection.aspx?section=191.480)

### Federal rules still apply

Missouri 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 St. Louis, 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 St. Louis providers ask before they book.

### How much does training in St. Louis cost?

Training inside your own practice in St. Louis 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 Missouri have its own stem cell law?

Not a notice or consent statute that we found. What Missouri has is a 2006 constitutional amendment, Article III, Section 38(d), which says stem cell therapies permitted under federal law may be provided to patients in Missouri. That leaves the FDA's rules as the line that matters, and your counsel and your board as the ones to ask about a specific product. Our reading, with the source, is on the [rules by state page](/regenerative-medicine-laws-by-state/#missouri).

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

Within your Missouri scope, yes. Missouri has restricted practice for nurse practitioners, who work under a collaborative practice arrangement with a physician, and a physician assistant may not practice without physician collaboration. Bring the arrangement when we plan the session, and we build the hands-on work around what it allows before you book.

### I'm not licensed in Missouri. Can I train in St. Louis?

Yes, and tell us when you request a date. If the instructor comes to you, you train in your own practice under the license you hold there. If you travel to an instructor's location in Missouri, your hands-on role depends on whether you are licensed in Missouri, and we agree the 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).
