Our Story
Stone House Wellness was co-founded by Nephi Redd, DO and Melanie Redd, CPT — a physician and certified fitness and nutrition coach who share a belief that feeling well shouldn't be a luxury. Dr. Redd brings over a decade of experience in pediatric and military medicine. Melanie brings a passion for coaching, a personal health journey, and a genuine understanding of what it takes to rebuild your health from the inside out. Together they built Stone House for the patient that traditional medicine keeps sending home with a clean bill of health even though they don't feel well — told that fatigue, achiness, and low energy are just part of getting older. They deserve real answers, not reassurance.

Normal is not the same as optimal. We evaluate your labs against optimal ranges, build personalized treatment plans around your data, and combine physician-supervised medicine with real coaching in nutrition, movement, and lifestyle. This is medicine designed to help you thrive — not just survive.

Dr. Nephi Redd, DO
Physician & Founder
Nephi Redd, DO is a board-certified physician with over a decade of clinical experience spanning pediatric medicine, military service, and functional wellness.
He completed his residency training in Pediatrics in 2015 — a specialty that shaped how he thinks about medicine. Pediatrics isn't just about treating sick children. It's about understanding the whole person over time: how the body develops, how early patterns become long-term trajectories, and how proactive care prevents the problems that reactive medicine scrambles to fix. That philosophy never left him.
Following residency, Dr. Redd served as an Active Duty military physician, providing care for service members and their families. He continues to serve today as a Field Surgeon with the Idaho Army National Guard — a role that has deepened his understanding of performance, resilience, and what the human body is capable of when it's properly supported.
​
As a husband and father of 5 children, he remains clinically active as a practicing physician in pediatric urgent care — because the commitment to hands-on patient care isn't something he's willing to set aside. Stone House exists alongside that work, not in place of it, because he believes there is a gap in how medicine serves adults who are not sick enough for the hospital but are far from thriving.
Yes, he trained in pediatrics. And no, that isn't a contradiction. The same instinct that drives a pediatrician — catching problems early, optimizing for long-term health, treating the whole patient rather than the isolated complaint — is exactly what drives functional medicine for adults. The patients change. The philosophy doesn't.
Melanie Redd, a licensed and certified teacher, earned her bachelor's degree in education. She is a certified personal trainer through the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM), group fitness instructor, coach, and currently pursuing her Precision Nutrition Level 1 certification. She currently instructs and coaches classes at two gyms and is an elementary teacher. Â
Â
Melanie has always had a deep love for movement and an active lifestyle. She grew up with a marathon-running dad and has fond memories of traveling with him to his races. She followed in his footsteps and has participated in many races in her life, including a marathon. She knows what it takes to set a goal, put together a training plan and see it through to the end. Her latest adventure was earning a black belt in tae kwon do and participating in a Hyrox race. Â
Â
Even with an active lifestyle, she knows firsthand how difficult it can be to reclaim your health while having children and navigating a busy lifestyle. She truly understands and empathizes with physical and mental health challenges that contribute to poor health. Whether you are trying to reclaim health, change your body composition, have more energy or simply want to feel better-she understands the education needed along with the patience, consistency, and grace it requires. Â
​
As co-founder of Stone House Wellness and wife of Dr. Nephi Redd, Melanie offers fitness and nutrition coaching to help support you and achieve your health, wellness and nutrition goals. Â
