I'm struggling so much with my diet. What is the step-by-step process for weight loss at your clinic?

The core of successful weight loss is not simply 'eating less,' but creating a 'body that burns efficiently.' In my own experience and studies, I've found that starvation triggers a survival mechanism that drastically lowers your metabolic rate to conserve energy. At Baekrokdam Korean Medicine Clinic, we generally follow this systematic approach: 1. Waste Removal Phase: We begin by clearing 'Dameum' (痰飮, accumulated phlegm and fluid) and 'Eohyeol' (瘀血, blood stasis). Much like a clogged drain prevents water from flowing, these waste products must be removed first for fats to be metabolized effectively. 2. Metabolic Activation Phase: Patients with 'Bi-heo' (脾虛, Spleen deficiency) often suffer from poor digestion and chronic fatigue. We use herbal medicine to strengthen digestive functions and elevate the basal metabolic rate, transforming your body into one that burns energy efficiently even at rest. 3. Appetite Control & Habit Correction Phase: Sudden, drastic dietary changes are often perceived by the brain as a crisis, leading to binge eating. Our herbal prescriptions soothe 'false hunger' and help your body naturally recognize the appropriate amount of nourishment it truly needs. 4. Constitutional Maintenance Phase: The 'yo-yo effect' occurs because the body naturally attempts to return to its original weight. To prevent this, we provide dietary guidance tailored to your specific constitution and provide balancing treatments to stabilize your new weight. Since every individual's constitution and health status differ, we will conduct a thorough examination upon your visit to design a personalized weight loss plan just for you.
