I always seem to fail at dieting or end up worrying about side effects. What is the recommended step-by-step process for dieting at a Korean medicine clinic?

At Baekrokdam, we focus on restoring the body's internal balance rather than forced fasting. From a Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM) perspective, we prioritize clearing metabolic waste known as 'Phlegm-fluid' (Dameum) and strengthening the 'Spleen Deficiency' (Biheo) state. We provide a 1:1 customized plan to help your body utilize energy efficiently, ensuring a sustainable and healthy transformation tailored to your specific constitution.

Even as a practitioner, I understand the challenges of dieting. Experience has shown that dieting without foundational physical strength only harms the body. At Baekrokdam, we guide you through the following clinical stages: 1. Resolving 'Blood Stasis' (Eohyeol): We first address stagnant blood that hinders circulation. Clearing these metabolic obstacles is the essential first step to kickstarting your metabolism. 2. Discharging 'Phlegm-fluid' (Dameum): If your body feels heavy or prone to swelling, it is often due to the accumulation of 'Dameum'—abnormal body fluids. Clearing this waste creates an environment where weight loss occurs more naturally. 3. Improving 'Spleen Deficiency' (Biheo): In a state of Spleen Deficiency, the body fails to burn energy efficiently, often leading to weight gain even with low caloric intake. We strengthen the digestive system to ensure nutrients are absorbed properly and energy is burned effectively. 4. Replenishing Qi and Constitutional Maintenance: To prevent the 'yo-yo effect,' we use medicinal herbs tailored to your constitution to replenish 'Qi' (vital energy). Our ultimate goal is not just appetite suppression, but enhancing the body's self-recovery power. Knowing whether your body needs 'clearing' (detoxification) or 'filling' (tonification) is the key to success. We are here to guide you on a healthy path without overexerting your system.
