What is the specific process for weight loss treatment at a TKM clinic?
The process begins with a constitutional diagnosis to prescribe personalized herbal medicine that boosts metabolism, followed by step-by-step correction of dietary and lifestyle habits.
Your journey starts by assessing your body's current state. Rather than simply fasting, we focus on identifying the constitutional causes behind weight gain.
In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), weight increase is often attributed to conditions such as Spleen Deficiency (Bi-heo), where impaired digestive function leads to the accumulation of waste, or Blood Stasis (Eo-hyeol), which hinders circulation. Addressing these root causes is essential for efficient progress without hitting a plateau.
- Step 1: Constitutional & Detailed Diagnosis - Through consultations and examinations, we evaluate your current metabolic state, edema, and inflammation levels.
