Treatment Duration

Q. How long will it take to receive my diet herbal medicine at home after a remote consultation in Gunsan?

A.

It typically takes about 3 to 4 business days to receive your medicine after the consultation. Because each prescription is customized to your specific physical condition and decocted directly at our clinic, this preparation period is essential. Once the decoction is complete, we ship it securely via courier and provide updates through text messages.

📝 Detailed Answer

I completely understand the sense of urgency that follows a commitment to dieting; I once felt that same impatience, waiting by the door for my own herbal medicine to arrive. Usually, it takes 3 to 4 business days to receive your prescription because we do not provide mass-produced, ready-made products. We only begin the compounding process after thoroughly evaluating your unique constitution and health status. In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), weight gain is often linked to 'Dameum' (痰飮), which refers to metabolic waste or phlegm-fluid resulting from poor circulation, or 'Biheo' (脾虛), a state of weakened Spleen Qi that impairs digestion. To effectively clear this 'Dameum' and reinforce the 'Biheo,' we must meticulously adjust the herbal formula for each individual. The process requires one day for the customized formulation, one day for careful decoction and packaging, and another day for shipping. I have found that this 'absolute time' dedicated to sincerity and quality cannot be shortened without compromise. Please consider this wait an essential step in crafting a restorative medicine perfectly suited for you. While you wait, I recommend taking light walks and staying hydrated to prepare your body.
