Many people try to lose weight through sheer willpower and extreme fasting, only to find their energy depleted while their belly fat remains. This is because abdominal obesity is often not just a result of overeating, but a sign that the body's circulatory system is malfunctioning. At Baekrokdam Korean Medicine Clinic, we follow a structured approach: First, we diagnose your constitution and the underlying cause. We determine if you are in a state of 'Spleen Deficiency' (脾虛, bi-heo), where digestive functions are impaired, or if your energy is stagnant due to stress (Qi stagnation). Next, we focus on removing metabolic waste. We clear out 'Dam-eum' (痰飮, phlegm-fluid/unnecessary moisture) and 'Eo-hyeol' (瘀血, blood stasis). Just as you cannot drain a sink if the pipe is clogged, we must clear these obstructions first for weight loss to be effective. Then, we activate your metabolic functions. Using customized herbal medicine, we naturally increase your basal metabolic rate. Instead of forcibly suppressing appetite, we create an internal environment where the body spontaneously consumes energy. Finally, we incorporate acupuncture or other procedures to improve circulation in weakened areas, establishing a bodily balance that prevents the 'yo-yo effect.' The core of our approach is solving the question: 'Why is my body insisting on storing fat specifically in the abdomen?' Please don't exhaust yourself by struggling alone; let us find the right solution together.
