I've checked my numbers using an InBody scan or obesity calculator, but how exactly is weight loss managed at a Korean medicine clinic?

Many people believe that eating less and exercising more is the only way, but often the body does not respond, leading to dizziness and extreme fatigue. At Baekrokdam Korean Medicine Clinic, we look beyond the numbers to find the underlying 'cause.' Our process is as follows: 1. Assessing Constitution and Metabolic State: We first examine the presence of Dam-eum (痰飮), which refers to abnormal metabolic waste accumulated in the body. When this is excessive, the body feels heavy and weight loss remains difficult regardless of caloric restriction. 2. Improving Circulation and Resolving Eohyeol: We work to resolve Eohyeol (瘀血), or stagnant blood. Proper blood circulation is essential for energy utilization and creating an optimal environment for burning body fat. 3. Enhancing Digestive and Absorptive Function: Many patients suffer from what is called Bi-heo (脾虛) in Traditional Korean Medicine, meaning a deficiency in Spleen function. Since a decline in digestive power slows down the overall metabolism, we support this function to restore your basal metabolic rate. 4. Personalized Prescriptions and Lifestyle Correction: Based on these steps, we prescribe customized herbal medicine to suppress appetite and boost metabolism. The core objective is to cultivate the body's innate ability to regulate itself rather than forcing starvation. Ultimately, our goal is not just to change a number, but to healthily transform the systemic bodily functions that create those numbers. Let's move forward steadily and comfortably together.
