Q. My body fat percentage is around 25%. How does a Korean medicine clinic help with the weight loss process?

Many people have experienced the frustration of restrictive dieting, which often leads to lethargy and the 'yo-yo effect.' At Baekrokdam, we focus on the internal environment—asking 'why' the weight isn't coming off. 1. Constitution Analysis: We first evaluate your current state to see if you suffer from Spleen Deficiency (Bi-heo, 脾虛), characterized by weak digestive function, or if there is an accumulation of waste products. 2. Metabolic Boost and Appetite Control: We use customized herbal medicine to increase your basal metabolic rate. By simultaneously clearing Dam-eum (痰飮, accumulated phlegm-fluid/metabolic waste), your body feels significantly lighter. 3. Resolving Circulatory Stagnation: We apply acupuncture to areas where body fat is concentrated. By resolving Eo-hyeol (瘀血, blood stasis/stagnant blood), we improve blood circulation, which further accelerates metabolism. 4. Lifestyle Correction: Instead of unrealistic plans, we design a sustainable diet. Having experienced the pitfalls of overly strict regimes, I emphasize a balanced approach to prevent burnout. 5. Maintenance and Constitutional Improvement: The final stage focuses on balancing the body to prevent weight regain. By improving your overall constitution, maintaining your target weight becomes much easier. By following these stages, you can reach your goals more comfortably and with less strain on your body.
