Treatment Duration

Q. How long does it take to receive my diet herbal medicine after a remote consultation?

A.

Once your prescription is finalized after the remote consultation, it typically takes 3 to 7 days. Because I provide a customized prescription tailored to your specific condition and the herbal decoction requires careful preparation, it takes a bit of time to ensure the highest quality.

📝 Detailed Answer

I completely understand that you are eager to start your weight loss journey. Please know that I am committed to preparing your medicine with the utmost care. First, during the remote consultation, I will assess your overall health status. Rather than simply checking your weight, I need to evaluate the presence of 'Dameum' (痰飮, accumulated phlegm-fluid or metabolic waste) and 'Eohyeol' (瘀血, blood stasis), which can hinder metabolism. Once the prescription is finalized, the medicine undergoes the 'Tangjeon' (decoction) process. These are not pre-made products; I adjust the dosage of medicinal herbs based on your unique constitution and the degree of 'Bi-heo' (脾虛, deficiency of the Spleen/digestive function) to ensure the medicine is effective and gentle on your system. The decoction process usually takes 3 to 5 days, and including shipping, it is best to expect delivery within about a week. In my experience, rushing the preparation of herbal medicine can compromise its efficacy and compatibility with the body. Following the traditional, precise decoction method ensures that your body adapts comfortably to the treatment without undue strain. I will provide you with a more accurate schedule following your consultation. I will prepare your medicine thoroughly and deliver it to you as soon as possible.
