Before you choose.

Why take the class if I can shop the protocol?

You can shop an Edit without buying a class. The class gives you the fuller explanation of your changing body, starting with food, sleep, movement, and daily habits. Learn where botanicals, supplements, and functional tests may fit, with recorded lessons and a companion guide to revisit. So you understand the why behind your choices. Supplements and tests are purchased separately.

What is it actually like to take a Rhea class?

Like hanging out with your best friend who also happens to be a doctor. You’re learning, laughing, connecting the dots, and getting excited that you have options. We start with food, sleep, movement, and daily habits, then explore where herbs, supplements, and lab testing may fit. You get the whole conversation, with recorded lessons, your companion guide, and detailed product notes at the end of the class. Come back to it all at your own pace.

How long is the course?

The main recorded lessons in this class run for about 33 minutes. Allow extra time for the companion guide and practices. It’s self paced, with lifetime access, so there’s no schedule to keep up with. Watch a little, put something into practice, and come back when you’re ready.

The Movement Edit

Movement, Strength & Recovery

Build from where you are. Explore nourishment, strength, and recovery with room for a changing body, and a routine that feels like something you can keep.

Selected products from The Movement Edit arranged on travertine
01 / Begin with the foundations

Before the bottle.
The bigger picture.

01

Nourishment first.

Begin with regular, satisfying meals, enough energy, varied plants, and hydration. Consider what your day needs before adding more formulas.

02

Rest, rhythm & movement.

Look at sleep, daylight, movement that fits your capacity, and the demands on your day. Recovery deserves a place in the plan.

03

Notice your pattern.

Keep a simple record of what has changed and when. Bring the details of fuel & recovery into the conversation.

04

Choose the next step.

Review your history, current medicines and supplements, and existing results. A test or preparation should answer a specific question.

02 / Inside the edit

Inside the Edit.

Eight selections from the original Movement collection. Explore each product individually; this is not a recommendation to take them all together.

04 / Functional laboratory testing

A closer look.
A clearer question.

Your numbers tell part of the story. Your experience tells another. Begin with a question, then choose testing that can help answer it.

The Fitness Edit LabsYour usual workout. A different recovery?

If movement is leaving you with more questions than momentum, start with fuel, rest, and your training routine. This edit includes red blood cell magnesium and a muscle enzyme panel for specific clinical questions. Neither is a fitness score. Choose testing around what has changed, so you can have a more informed conversation about recovery.

2 selected tests

Find my tests
Magnesium, RBC

Magnesium helps muscles and nerves do their work. This test measures it inside red blood cells, rather than in the liquid part of your blood. It offers another piece of information to discuss alongside food, symptoms, and medicines; it is not a direct measurement of all the magnesium in your muscles or body.

Yes, I want to order my test
Creatine Kinase Isoenzymes (CK Isoenzymes) with Total CK

Creatine kinase, or CK, is an enzyme found mainly in muscle. It can rise in the blood after hard exercise or muscle injury. This test measures CK and its different forms to help investigate a specific concern. It is not a fitness score, and it is different from checking or taking creatine supplements.

Yes, I want to order my test

Begin with nourishment, sleep, movement, and your health history. Choose testing with a clear purpose. Current pricing, collection instructions, and ordering eligibility are shown on Fullscript. Labs are purchased separately from the teachings.

Testing questions from this teaching

Fuel & recovery

A question to bring to your clinician
The conversation
What are you noticing, and what has changed? Start with the pattern discussed in the teaching.
Keep in mind
Existing results, symptoms, medicines, and the timing of collection all belong in the interpretation.

Sleep & body composition

A question to bring to your clinician
The conversation
Would testing help distinguish between plausible contributors, or would the next step be the same without it?
Keep in mind
Existing results, symptoms, medicines, and the timing of collection all belong in the interpretation.

Metabolic health

A question to bring to your clinician
The conversation
Which result would change your plan? Ask what a test can establish, what it cannot, and how it will be followed up.
Keep in mind
Existing results, symptoms, medicines, and the timing of collection all belong in the interpretation.

You do not need every test. Results belong alongside your history and clinical assessment; there is no single “optimal” number that fits every woman.

05 / Good questions

A little more
understanding.

Do I need everything in this edit?

No. The foundations come first. Product selections are individual options, not a stack to take together. Choose around your needs, history, and existing care.

Can I start with the teaching?

Absolutely. Watch the lessons, notice your own patterns, and return to the protocol when you have a clearer sense of the questions you want to explore.

Are labs and products included?

Labs and products are purchased separately through the linked Rhea stores. Availability, current labels, and pricing are confirmed there.

How do I make this personal?

Bring your symptoms, medicines, supplements, and existing lab results to your clinician. Together, decide what to try, how to use it, what to monitor, and when to reassess.

Whole body wisdom. One next step.
