Q. I want to focus on dieting for about a month. How should I get started?

A.

We begin with personalized herbal medicine prescriptions tailored to your individual metabolic capacity. This process helps discharge waste products from the body and regulate appetite to create an efficient environment for weight loss.

📝 Detailed Answer

Many people start by starving themselves or jumping into excessive exercise, but this often leads to burnout and physical strain. Therefore, the first priority is to increase your basal metabolic rate.

In Traditional Korean Medicine, a state where metabolism is sluggish and waste accumulates is referred to as Dam-jeok (phlegm-fluid accumulation) or Eo-hyeol (blood stasis). If these exist, weight loss is inefficient regardless of how little you eat.

💡 Direction for One-Month Intensive Care

The goal is not simply to reduce weight, but to remove elements that obstruct circulation to transform your body into one that loses weight more easily.

  • Step 1: We accurately assess your current bodily condition (such as Spleen Deficiency or Liver Qi Stagnation) through body composition analysis and pulse diagnosis.
  • Step 2: You will be prescribed customized herbal medicine that naturally regulates appetite and boosts metabolism.
  • Step 3: We proceed with a short-term intensive process to remove edema and discharge toxins from the body.
  • Step 4: We establish dietary correction and maintenance plans to prevent the yo-yo effect after weight loss.

However, since every person's constitution is different, using the strongest medication is not always the answer. We recommend starting with a consultation to ensure the prescription is right for your specific body type.
