Q. My body fat percentage is around 28%. How do you handle weight loss treatments at a Korean medicine clinic?
A.
Simply eating less isn't always the solution. We first focus on removing 'metabolic waste' accumulated in the body. Since starvation often causes the body to cling to energy, we boost your metabolism based on your specific constitution and clear blocked circulation paths. By replenishing deficient energy, we create an internal environment where body fat is naturally eliminated.
📝 Detailed Answer
Many people try extreme fasting out of enthusiasm, but this often leads to lethargy and dizziness. In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), we view the accumulation of body fat not merely as a calorie imbalance, but as a result of 'stagnation in circulation.'
Our process generally follows these steps:
1. Diagnosis of Qi and Blood Circulation: We identify the presence of Eohyeol (瘀血, stagnant blood) and Dameum (痰飮, phlegm-fluid or metabolic waste). If these pathways are blocked, weight loss remains difficult regardless of calorie restriction.
2. Activating the Metabolic Switch: Those with Bi-heo (脾虛, Spleen deficiency) suffer from impaired digestion and absorption, leading to a low basal metabolic rate. We start with prescriptions to strengthen this 'internal fire' and boost metabolism.
3. Detoxification and Waste Removal: Using herbal medicine to stimulate metabolism, we push out stagnant fluids and toxins from the body. This is when you will begin to feel your body becoming significantly lighter.
4. Dietary Correction and Maintenance: Rather than extreme fasting, we identify foods that suit your unique constitution to prevent the yo-yo effect.
Ultimately, the goal is to transform your body into one that 'burns efficiently.' Let's work together to identify where your circulation is blocked and find the right solution.
