Weight loss is often more about your 'physiological state' than a lack of willpower. Having experienced the frustration of trial-and-error myself, I understand your struggle. At Baeknokdam Clinic, we approach weight loss in four strategic stages: First, we diagnose the root cause of weight gain. We analyze whether your metabolism is sluggish due to Spleen Deficiency (脾虛, Bi-heo)—a lack of digestive and transformative energy—or if your energy flow is blocked due to stress. Next, we clear the 'internal debris.' This involves removing waste products such as Dam-eum (痰飮, abnormal fluid accumulation) and Eo-hyeol (瘀血, blood stasis). Just as you cannot put more into a full trash can, your body cannot lose weight effectively until these obstructions are removed. Then, we use customized herbal medicine to optimize caloric expenditure and suppress 'false hunger.' The goal is not to endure starvation through sheer force of will, but to naturally regulate your appetite and food intake. Finally, we focus on preventing the dreaded yo-yo effect. We adjust your metabolic balance and improve your overall constitution so that your body recognizes and maintains the new weight as its natural set point. Ultimately, the key is restoring the body's broken system to its normal function. Rather than pursuing extreme methods, I recommend a sustainable pace that your body can actually handle.
