I fully understand the anxiety you may feel; in my own early years of study, I experienced moments where theoretical results didn't immediately align with practice. Because herbal medicine is not a mass-produced product but a personalized prescription tailored to an individual's specific condition, a process of 'fine-tuning' is often necessary if the initial response is not ideal. I typically monitor your body's response and modify the prescription through the following stages: 1. Initial Response Check: We first monitor signals such as digestive issues or insomnia after taking the medicine. 2. Analysis of Metabolic Stagnation: If you hit a plateau, I investigate if there is an increase in Dam-eum (痰飮, the accumulation of metabolic waste that blocks the flow of fluids). 3. Assessment of Vitality and Digestive Function: If Bi-heo (脾虛, deficiency of the Spleen/digestive system) is severe, the absorption of the medicine may decrease, slowing the effects. 4. Improving Blood Flow and Circulation: I add or subtract specific herbs to remove Eo-hyeol (瘀血, blood stasis/stagnant blood) to ensure smoother metabolism. 5. Correction of Lifestyle Patterns: We adjust your diet and sleep patterns together to find the optimal point of response. The key is not simply categorizing the treatment as 'effective' or 'ineffective,' but accurately reading your body's current state. I will be with you every step of the way to find the best path for your body, so please visit the clinic without worry.
