I live near Bulgwang Station. If I get a prescription for diet herbal medicine via telemedicine, how many days will it take to receive the medicine?
Once your prescription is finalized through the telemedicine consultation, we carefully decoct your medicine and ship it. You will typically receive it within 3 to 5 business days. Please understand that it takes a bit longer because we provide customized prescriptions tailored to your specific constitution rather than mass-produced products.
I completely understand the feeling of anxiously waiting for your medicine to arrive when you are eager to start your health journey. Weight loss in Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM) is not just about reducing numbers on a scale, but about awakening the body's overall metabolism, which requires a precise and careful process.
First, we conduct a telemedicine consultation to assess your current state. We don't just look at your weight; we meticulously examine whether you have accumulated Dam-eum (痰飮, phlegm-fluid retention/waste) or Eo-hyeol (瘀血, blood stasis). A key part of this process is checking for Pi-heo (脾虛), which is a deficiency in the Spleen's function leading to poor digestion. If we prescribe medication without accounting for this, you may experience nausea or digestive discomfort.
Once the prescription is finalized, the process moves in stages: for the first 1 to 2 days, I personally select the medicinal herbs and finalize the prescription. The following 2 to 3 days are dedicated to the decoction (boiling) process in a clean, controlled environment to ensure maximum potency and purity.
With modern delivery systems, the medicine usually arrives at your door within 3 to 5 business days. While it may seem like a wait, please think of it as the time required to 'tailor-make a suit' that fits your body perfectly. If you wait just a little longer, I will ensure every detail is handled carefully so you can experience the feeling of your body becoming truly light and refreshed.
