Q. I have severe abdominal obesity. What is the specific process for weight loss at a Korean medicine clinic?

Having experienced the fatigue and dizziness that come from reckless fasting, we at Baekrokdam focus on the fundamental principles of the body. First, we analyze your constitution and metabolic state to identify the accumulation of 'Dameum' (phlegm-fluid), which refers to abnormal metabolic waste products. Next, we focus on removing 'Eohyeol' (blood stasis). When blood becomes viscous and stagnant, it hinders circulation, making weight loss difficult regardless of effort. In such cases, acupuncture or pharmacopuncture is used to clear these blockages. We then supplement this with customized herbal medicine. For instance, if you suffer from 'Bihyeo' (Spleen Deficiency), your digestive capacity drops, making you more prone to weight gain. We prescribe medicine to strengthen these areas and maximize metabolic efficiency. Of course, herbal medicine is not the only solution; we will work together to adjust your lifestyle and dietary habits to a sustainable level. Ultimately, the core objective is to create an internal environment where your body can burn energy efficiently on its own. Please view this not as a restrictive diet, but as a process of restoring your body's natural balance.
