처방 기간
Q. I’m looking to get a prescription for diet herbal medicine through a non-face-to-face consultation in Gwangjin-gu. How long does it take to receive the medicine, and what is the typical duration of the weight loss program?
A.
Following your consultation, formulation and delivery typically take 2 to 3 business days. The weight loss process is divided into three stages: Emptying, Intensive Weight Loss, and Maintenance. The first three days are dedicated to detoxifying the body, followed by 1 to 2 months of intensive fat burning. Finally, a maintenance period of at least one month is required to prevent the yo-yo effect and stabilize your results.
📝 Detailed Answer
Managing weight while balancing a busy schedule is a challenge, and I personally understand the struggle of feeling lightheaded from over-fasting in the past. Through our non-face-to-face service, you can receive your customized herbal medicine at home within 2 to 3 business days after a phone consultation.
In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), dieting is not just about eating less; it is about resetting your body's internal flow. The first 1 to 3 days are the 'Emptying Phase,' designed to clear out Dameum (痰飮 - phlegm-fluid stagnation) and Eohyeol (瘀血 - blood stasis) to prepare your body for weight loss.
The next 1 to 2 months is the 'Intensive Weight Loss Phase.' Many patients suffer from Biheo (脾虛 - Spleen Qi Deficiency), which slows down digestion and metabolism. We focus on reinforcing these functions to boost your metabolic rate and burn body fat effectively.
Finally, the 'Maintenance Phase' is crucial for at least one month. Because the body has a strong tendency to return to its original weight (set-point), this period is essential to prevent a rebound. While the total duration may vary based on your constitution and goals, I will be here to guide you through each step of the journey.
