STEPHANIE FISCHER
doctor of acupuncture
​
FOUNDER, OWNER

Stephanie Fischer is a Doctor of Acupuncture with a Master's degree in acupuncture currently practicing in Rhode Island.  She is licensed to practice acupuncture by the Rhode Island Department of Health and is a Diplomate of Acupuncture by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. In 2009 Stephanie earned her Master's degree in both Chinese and Japanese styles of acupuncture from the New England School of Acupuncture, the oldest acupuncture school in the United States. Additional post-graduate work and training includes a certification in Kiiko Matsumoto style acupuncture, Shinkiko healing and pediatrics under sensei Koei Kuwahara in Boston, Advanced Acupuncture for the Cancer Patient from the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, and Engaging Vitality which is a combination of osteopathy and acupuncture.

Through years of training Stephanie specializes in pediatrics and non-insertive needle techniques. From 2014-2016 she worked as a part-time acupuncturist with a focus on pediatrics as part of the HOPES Program at the Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Center where she provided acupuncture in both inpatient and outpatient settings to adult and pediatric patients undergoing radiation and chemotherapy.

In 2018 Stephanie traveled to Osaka and Kyoto, Japan to deepen her acupuncture training and cultural immersion by completing an intensive study under teachers of Kiiko Matsumoto in pediatrics, facial rejuvination, moxabustion techniques and the M-Test with the revered Dr. Yoshito Mukaino.

Stephanie is a dual Swiss and American citizen and first became interested in acupuncture while she was a young child in Switzerland accompanying family members on local trips to the village acupuncturist. Stephanie later began acupuncture treatments for her asthma at the age of fifteen and the results were so remarkable that she vowed to dedicate her interests in the healing profession. In addition to her busy practice in Providence, Stephanie continues to give guest lectures at Brown University on acupuncture and complementary medicine and pursue further studies with a focus on fertility and pregnancy support after her own personal journey. Recently Keystone Family Acupuncture became a referred Acupuncture provider by the Women and Infant’s Hospital Fertility Center in Providence, RI.

  RACHEL W. MARTINEZ
   DOCTOR OF ACUPUNCTURE
As a doctor of acupuncture, Rachel partners with her patients to achieve harmony and health of the mind, body, and spirit - using acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping, and other modalities to treat acute and chronic symptoms and achieve global health. Rachel’s patients often feel relief at their first appointment - enjoying a deepening of the breath, clear eyes, and a sense of settling into their body. Rachel is certified by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM) and over the course of treatment, she and her patients work together to make space, in the body and in life, for the lasting healing that comes with rest and recovery. 

Rachel was drawn to acupuncture as she trained to become a first-degree black belt in Aikido, a traditional Japanese martial art. Not surprisingly, there were aches and pains along the way which she was treated successfully with acupuncture and chiropractic. Later, acupuncture kept her healthy during two pregnancies. As a result, she found herself continuously referring her friends and family to similar courses of treatment. Feeling called, Rachel left a successful real estate career to attend the New England School of Acupuncture, now part of the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences (MCPHS) in Worcester, MA, where she trained in Chinese, Japanese, and Orthopedic acupuncture as well as many other adjunct therapies.  As an intern she treated patients at Boston Medical Center, UMass Memorial and Cambridge Health Alliance’s Malden Family Health Center. She sees this career change as an aligning of her upbringing, being the daughter of a chiropractor, her passion for health, and her training in Aikido and Zen. Becoming a healer honors her family’s legacy and is a confluence of her own life’s journey.

Before becoming an acupuncturist, Rachel graduated from RISD in 1994 with a Bachelor’s in Fine Arts Degree in Painting and later became a leasing agent for Armory Revival in Providence. During her tenure at Armory, Rachel helped many families and individuals find the perfect home in the west side of Providence. She is also the property manager for Dove Street Enterprises and oversaw the rebirth of two apartment buildings in Providence. 

Today, Rachel still trains in Aikido and Zen meditation and lives in Cranston, RI with her husband, two children, and pup Bucky.
