Q. If I have a remote consultation for weight loss, when can I expect to receive my herbal medicine? I want to start as soon as I've made up my mind.

A.

Once your prescription is confirmed, it typically arrives within 2 to 3 business days. We do not use pre-made, mass-produced formulas; instead, we customize each prescription based on your unique physical condition. I personally oversee the decoction process in our clinic's pharmacy to ensure the highest quality, so we appreciate your patience for just a few days.

📝 Detailed Answer

I completely empathize with your desire to start immediately; when you’re motivated, even a short wait can feel long. However, since the goal is to safely transform your body's constitution, the preparation stage is the most vital step. Following your remote consultation, we meticulously analyze the root cause of your weight gain—whether it is Spleen Deficiency (Biheo), accumulated Phlegm-dampness (Dameum), or Blood Stasis (Eo-hyeol) hindering your circulation. Once the formulation is finalized, our in-house pharmacist spends an entire day compounding and packaging your medicine. Including shipping, you will receive your herbal medicine within 2 to 3 days. We believe weight loss is a long-term journey, ideally planned for about three months. The first week is dedicated to metabolic adaptation and gradual constitutional improvement. While waiting for your delivery, I recommend drinking plenty of water to lightly detoxify your body. I will personally ensure your personalized prescription is prepared with the utmost care and precision.
