about Stephanie
I’m Stephanie Kent, a nationally-certified Licensed Acupuncturist and East Asian Medicine Practitioner, as well as a Massage Therapist. I hold a Masters's degree in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine from Bastyr University, Washington, as well as a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology with a major in Health and Wellbeing, from Université de Sherbrooke, Québec. On that note, I am fluent in French (Français) and English.
During the course of my four-year master’s degree, I focused mainly on learning Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Japanese acupuncture, but I am also very passionate about Five Element acupuncture. That being said, the foundation of my practice is based on treating the mind-body-spirit connection with treatments I find best for the unique individual in front of me.
Acupuncture and Chinese medicine treat a variety of ailments ranging from acute and chronic pain to anxiety, menstrual abnormalities, acne, depression, sleep, and digestive concerns. I specialize mainly in women’s health, dermatology, as well as digestive and psychoemotional concerns, but feel free to communicate all of your concerns during our appointments.

As a Licensed Acupuncturist (AC#61147053) and Licensed Massage Therapist (MA#60736452) in the state of Washington, the treatments I offer are personalized and may include a variety of modalities. I address concerns primarily with acupuncture, but also integrate other amazing tools such as herbal medicine, gua sha, cupping, massage therapy, TCM food and lifestyle, as well as various energy and qi-based therapies.
I founded radiance rituals because I wish to be of service to my community and have a deeply seated desire to give back the gift of healing I have received myself over the years. I truly believe it is with education and kindness that our society will become more unified, loving, and understanding. By leading by example, we will make our planet a healthier and more compassionate place. So, start today by taking some time for yourself to become a more balanced whole!

“Stephanie listened to my concerns from our very first encounter. She offered me valuable insight on how acupuncture could help my pain, and reassured me during the needling since I am pretty scared of needles. It ended up being pain-free and I was sold after the relief I felt after only one visit! Thanks again Stephanie!” — Shawn

“I’ve been seeing Stephanie in the student acupuncture clinic for over 9 months now. She always listens to my concerns, makes sure to hold space for me and always gives me a wonderful treatment.
