Everything looks fine in your labs. Your body says otherwise.
More than treating symptoms, we work to restore the root of the problem.
Essencia Neurometabolic Reset™ is the personalized medical protocol for those living with persistent fatigue, digestive, hormonal or weight issues that no isolated treatment has resolved.
This program is for you
You've tried diets, supplements and treatments that bring relief for a moment, and the symptoms come back. Exhaustion is already part of your routine, and no one gives you a complete explanation. That is not normal, and it doesn't have to be the way you live.
Check the symptoms you recognize in yourself:
If you identified with three or more, this program was designed with you in mind.
From one of the world’s Blue Zones.
Our clinic is on the Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica, one of the five places on the planet where people live longer and in better health.
We apply that same logic with science: functional medicine that works to bring your gut, your hormones, your brain and your nervous system back into balance.
There are no generic protocols: there is yours.
What your protocol aims to work on with you
Waking up with energy that lasts all day, without the usual crashes.
Thinking clearly, without brain fog in the middle of the afternoon.
Eating without inflammation or digestive discomfort afterward.
Sleeping better, with a more stable mood.
Habits you can sustain for years, not a one-month fix.
Individual results vary from case to case. This section describes the goal of the protocol, not a guaranteed outcome.
Your process, month by month
The program is counted from the start date you agree on with the clinical team. Across those five months you have nine scheduled consultations and continuous accompaniment between them.
The first month is exclusively medical: Dr. Ana Laura evaluates your case and orders your labs, so that no part of your protocol is designed blind. Your nutritionist joins in month 2, already with your results on the table.
The journey, month by month
-
Month 1 · Initial medical evaluation
Your first medical consultation: full clinical history, your symptoms and everything you have tried so far. From there we order the labs and studies your case actually needs, not a generic panel.
From this first month you have the WhatsApp follow-up group: a tool for clinical accompaniment throughout the entire process. This channel offers you:
- Answers to questions related to your protocol.
- Follow-up on your adherence to the clinical and nutritional plan.
- General guidance on how to implement your plan.
How does it benefit you? Having your clinical team closer, with continuous guidance between consultations, so that implementing your protocol is easier to sustain and no important adjustment has to wait until your next appointment.
-
Month 2 · Protocol design
The integration consultation: we read your results together with your history and hand you your individualized protocol. Your functional nutrition accompaniment also starts here, built on your real lab work.
-
Month 3 · Implementation
A medical and a nutrition consultation to support the start, with the first clinical adjustments according to how your body responds. Between appointments, your team stays with you on WhatsApp.
-
Month 4 · Fine-tuning
A medical and a nutrition consultation to fine-tune the protocol and your nutrition plan according to your progress: what is working is reinforced, what is not gets changed.
-
Month 5 · Consolidation
Your final medical and nutrition consultations: we evaluate what has been achieved and define your maintenance plan, so the progress holds once the accompaniment ends.
Nine consultations and a team focused on your case
The medical consultations include the initial evaluation, the integration and protocol design consultation, and the scheduled follow-ups throughout the process. The program also includes:
Clinical review and functional interpretation of your lab results and studies.
Design of your individualized protocol, with clinical adjustments as soon as you send us relevant information, not only during the scheduled consultations.
Priority attention for program patients on everything within the scope of your protocol.
Access to the WhatsApp follow-up group for the five months, for protocol questions and adherence between consultations.
Labs and studies are quoted separately: the program includes the clinical review and interpretation of your results, not the cost of running them. Medications and supplements are not included either.
Your clinical team
Dr. Ana Laura Rodríguez Rojas, Medical Director of Essencia Azul Health & Longevity Clinic, with a focus on functional medicine, neurometabolic health and longevity science.
Your protocol is designed and supervised under her medical direction, with a multidisciplinary clinical team dedicated to your particular case: not a template, not a generic algorithm.
In person and virtual, as you need it
Your protocol combines in-person consultations at our clinic in Nicoya with virtual follow-up, so that distance is not an obstacle to your process.
Before you begin
Is this another diet?
No. It is a medical protocol based on your history and laboratory results: nutrition is one part, not the whole.
How long does the process take?
5 months of support: 5 medical consultations and 4 functional nutrition consultations. The first month is exclusively medical, to evaluate your case and order your labs; your nutritionist joins in month 2, already with your results in hand. Sustainable metabolic and hormonal changes do not happen overnight, and the details of your protocol are defined during your initial evaluation.
Do I need to travel to Costa Rica?
Your protocol combines in-person consultations and virtual follow-up; we define the format together according to your case.
How do I begin?
Begin by booking your initial evaluation with our team.
Medical notice
Results may vary from person to person. This program does not replace diagnosis or emergency medical treatment. Final clinical decisions are the responsibility of the treating medical team.
We don’t treat surface symptoms. We treat the cause.
