Q. How long does it take to receive my diet herbal medicine if I get a prescription via telehealth?

A.

Once your prescription is finalized through the telehealth consultation, your medication will typically arrive within 3 to 7 days. Because each formula is meticulously customized to your specific constitution rather than being a pre-made product, it takes a few days to prepare.

📝 Detailed Answer

I completely understand the anticipation of wanting to start your health journey quickly. However, it is important to remember that Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM) is not a mass-produced factory product, but a 'tailored remedy' crafted exclusively for one individual. First, we will carefully assess your physical condition via the telehealth consultation. We don't just look at the number on the scale; we analyze the accumulation of 'Dameum' (phlegm-fluid retention) and 'Eohyeol' (blood stasis) that may be obstructing your circulation. For instance, if you are in a state of 'Bi-heo' (Spleen deficiency) with poor digestive power, the composition of the herbal ingredients must be entirely different to ensure safety and efficacy. Regarding the process: after the consultation, a prescription is issued, and the herbal pharmacy proceeds with compounding and quality inspection. Generally, compounding takes 2-3 days and shipping takes 1-2 days, meaning you will receive your medicine within about a week. Consider the first week as an adaptation period for your body. From the second week onward, as your metabolic functions are revitalized, you will begin to notice gradual changes. The best results come from consistent intake for about a month while monitoring your body's response. Rather than feeling rushed, I encourage you to think of this as giving your body the necessary time to detoxify and heal healthily. We will provide a detailed schedule following your consultation.
