Treatment Duration
Q. How long does it take to receive my diet herbal medicine if I get a prescription via telehealth?
A.
The consultation and prescription process typically takes 1 to 3 days. Since I provide personalized prescriptions based on individual constitution analysis rather than ready-made products, you can expect your medicine to arrive within 3 to 5 business days, including shipping.
📝 Detailed Answer
I completely understand the desire to start your journey as quickly as possible. However, Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM) is not a mass-produced factory product; it is a tailored therapy that requires a careful process to ensure safety and efficacy.
First, we conduct a telehealth consultation to evaluate your current state. Rather than focusing solely on your weight, I meticulously analyze whether your metabolism has slowed due to 'Bi-heo' (脾虛, deficiency of the Spleen/digestive function) or if there is an accumulation of 'Dam-eum' (痰飮, stagnant metabolic waste/phlegm-fluid). This diagnostic phase typically takes 1 to 2 days.
Next is the preparation stage. I select and extract specific medicinal herbs tailored to your unique constitution. In my professional experience, a prescription based on a precise constitutional analysis is far more effective than one rushed through production.
Here is the general timeline:
- Days 1–2: Telehealth consultation, constitutional analysis, and finalization of the prescription.
- Day 3: Personalized preparation and packaging.
- Days 4–5: Shipping and delivery.
Depending on courier circumstances, there may be a slight difference of a day, but I appreciate your patience. I will ensure you receive a prescription perfectly suited to your body. Please feel free to ask if you have any further questions.
