Testimonials

Gilbert Iglesias
I received treatment for psoriasis at Essence for Wellness and I couldn't be happier with the results. Ed and Luzia devised a personalized plan via supplementation and diet that showed noticeable improvements within three months. By nine months, most of my psoriasis had significantly improved. Their expertise and care made a tremendous difference in my skin's health. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking effective psoriasis treatment.
Barbara Pierre
I am so grateful to have found Essence for Wellness to guide me in my journey to improve my health! I've been a patient of Essence for Wellness since the beginning of 2024, and after undergoing testing there, I discovered I was deficient in several key vitamins. With Ed and Luzia's counseling, I was able to reverse my deficiencies in most areas. I went from feeling constantly tired, to having abundant energy, and now getting through my day without needing two to three cups of coffee. I'm confident that by following Ed and Luzia's guidance on maintaining a healthy, clean diet, staying on top of my vitamins, and practicing mindfulness and gratitude, I will achieve optimal health. Overall, I am a huge advocate of functional medicine and highly recommend Essence for Wellness if you're looking to target the underlying causes of your chronic health concerns!
Herminia
It’s been a while since I realized I was in trouble with sugar addiction. I thought, “but how could I try to quit something so delicious and so comforting!” In all of this, my weight was not an issue to me or to my doctors. The biggest problem was the mental state I was in and thinking that I wasn’t able to get anywhere by myself; so I decided to get help! I am really thankful for Luzia and the program she put together for me! There are several ways to lose weight out there but not many will teach you to take time to care of yourself, keeping in mind that what you feed your body might be the most important thing you ever do! Sometimes what you need the most is to be reminded that something not being easy does not mean it is impossible. Luzia was incredible, she was always available when I was struggling and always ready to bring me information. On top of that, her passion for something that seemed impossible helped me realize it was possible to take charge of my health and to make lifelong changes!

You will not go wrong, choosing Essence for Wellness Functional Medicine! Dr. Ed Costa truly cares about you. He will not prescribe a bunch of medicine or supplements to treat your symptoms, but he will find with you the root cause of what your symptoms really are and then prescribe what works best for you. The personalized treatment makes you feel comfortable and confident with the results. Functional Medicine was a surprise for me in an excellent way. It really works! I highly recommend Essence for Wellness Functional Medicine!
Daniela Kososki
I had multiple IV treatments done at Essence for Wellness during the period that I was going through chemotherapy for breast cancer and I can't say enough about how it helped me, not only with overall feeling but also with maintaining my blood levels where they needed to be. The atmosphere at Essence is wonderful and both Ed and Luzia were delightful to deal with. The treatment was definitely a plus during a very difficult time for me and I'm extremely happy on how it helped me.
Katherine Lens
My husband and I had the most amazing experience at Essence for Wellness! We were in search of a healthier way of life, improved nutrition and guidance. Ed is very professional and knowledgeable and will help diligently with your health, and has plans of care tailored to your specific needs. Luzia is amazing and amazing Coach, who listens and will guide you in the right direction and give you the tools that will help you sustain your goals long term. They are an amazing team and I definitely recommend them.
