Q. I have severe abdominal obesity. How does a Korean medicine clinic help with weight loss?

A.

Rather than extreme fasting, the core focus is restoring your body's ability to process metabolic waste. Through constitutional analysis, we remove edema and toxins and boost metabolic functions to encourage the body to burn energy naturally. To prevent exhaustion and ensure sustainability, we provide step-by-step guidance while carefully managing your overall physical strength.

📝 Detailed Answer

In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), abdominal obesity is not merely an accumulation of fat, but a state where 'metabolic waste' has stagnated within the body. Therefore, we take a systematic, phased approach. First, we focus on clearing 'Eohyeol' (瘀血, blood stasis/stagnant blood) and 'Dameum' (痰飮, abnormal fluid accumulation/phlegm). If the metabolic pathways are blocked, forcing weight loss can lead to physical strain and health deterioration. Next, we restore digestive function. Patients with 'Bi-heo' (脾虛, Spleen deficiency) often experience abdominal bloating and fatigue even with small meals; by normalizing digestive and absorptive capacities, we ensure energy flows smoothly throughout the body. Following this, we ignite the body's 'internal fire' to increase the basal metabolic rate. Utilizing herbal medicine to enhance calorie-burning capacity is essential to overcome weight-loss plateaus. Finally, we implement constitution-specific maintenance. The 'yo-yo effect' is essentially a survival instinct of the body; we prevent this by tailoring diets and lifestyle habits to your specific constitution. Having experienced the pitfalls of unsustainable dieting myself, I know how draining it feels to be dizzy and lethargic. The goal isn't simply to lose weight, but to create a 'body that loses weight efficiently.' When you visit the clinic, we will analyze your current state to determine which stage of treatment you need.
