Grateful to be able to help support this amazing cause!

BIG thanks to Melanie and Maisie, our Westwood Chapter leaders, who did an incredible job with their first donation drive! 👏👏👏 They partnerd with Getinshape Westwood, Keldara Salon and Spa, Essential Advanced Skin Care and others to collect thousands of pads, tampons, bras and more for women in need. Their timing was perfect: after distributing 600,000+ items last week we can start refilling our shelves! And a special shout out to Mary Lou Andre and Dressing Well for introducing Melanie and Maisie to Dignity Matters 💕

Visit us to learn about how you can support your symptoms, thrive during the menopause transition and live a healthier, post menopause life! Don't need our help? Tell your friends and loved ones to help them feel better...faster.

Now, through the end of August, select times are available for FREE Women's Health consultations! These visits can be in-person or via telehealth (in Mass only) on Tuesdays and Wednesdays - availability is limited.

Our initial consultation is an opportunity to chat with one of our board-certified women’s health nurse practitioners about your medical history, past or current symptoms and goals for treatment. Based on this conversation, you and your provider can determine what next steps make the most sense for you. We provide a myriad of options including functional lab testing, medication management, coaching and specialty treatments for symptom support. Our goal is to offer you focused, personalized care in a warm and empowering environment - nothing rushed - just thorough care to get you feeling your best!

We are proud to have created a program that provides concierge care at an accessible cost. Patients can choose to pay as they go (aka “a la carte”) or join our "Women's Health" monthly membership plan for just $119/month. The monthly plan includes the cost of medication management, follow-up visits and labs requested by our Nurse Practitioner. PLUS, enjoy 10% off of our other services. Medication costs are not included in the monthly fee but are often covered by insurance or available at a low price.

Interested in learning more? Book your complimentarily consultation now to discuss your options and we'll tell you everything you need to know so you can be on your way to a healthier you.

Hi Essential friends!

As you may know, we rolled out functional lab testing this past winter with a focus on Women's Health labs BUT we are curious about what other types of lab panels women would be interested in pursuing.

We currently offer a basic health panel, {women's} hormone panel, energy panel, thyroid, vitamin d, anemia and weight management panel.

What other labs do you wish you could do but either your MD won't order it or you don't know who/where to go for information. Comment below or message us with your wish list!
For example, testing for......

🔸Autoimmune (gluten sensitivity, autoimmune disease)
🔸Fertility, Pre|Post Natal
🔸Genetics
🔸Neurological
🔸Toxins, Mold, Allergies
🔸Sleep
🔸Nutrition
🔸Stress

May is Mental Health Awareness Month and self love and mental health is at the core of what we do at Essential. Taking care of yourself goes way beyond exercise and diet. It also includes how you talk to yourself, who you choose to surround yourself with, and giving yourself peace and attention when you need it. Of course, we offer a number of self-care treatments here to help but if you just need a hug - those are free and never require an appointment. Essential is a judgement free safe space for anyone who needs it. 💚
