To effectively lower body fat percentage, your body must become an efficient 'fat-burning machine.' Many people mistakenly start with extreme calorie restriction, which the body perceives as an emergency, causing it to hold onto fat even more stubbornly. At Baekrokdam TKM Clinic, we approach weight loss through the following structured stages: 1. Assessing Constitution and Toxins: We evaluate the accumulation of Dam-eum (痰飮), which refers to unnecessary metabolic waste products in the body. High levels of these wastes slow down metabolism, making weight loss difficult. 2. Clearing Circulation Pathways: We resolve Eo-hyeol (瘀血), or stagnant blood, to revitalize blood circulation. Proper circulation ensures that nutrients and oxygen reach tissues efficiently, which is essential for burning fat. 3. Boosting Metabolism: We treat Bi-heo (脾虛), or deficiency of the Spleen. By enhancing the Spleen's function in digestion, absorption, and energy transport, we can preserve muscle mass while targeting fat loss. 4. Personalized Prescription and Maintenance: We prescribe tailored herbal medicines to increase your basal metabolic rate and manage appetite. We then focus on lowering the body's 'set point' to prevent the yo-yo effect. Starving yourself only damages your health. Healthy weight loss begins by identifying where your bodily functions are blocked and resolving those imbalances. Please feel free to visit us for a comprehensive check-up of your current condition.
