I've tried coffee diets and all the trending methods, but I fail every time. What are the specific stages of weight loss treatment at a Traditional Korean Medicine clinic?

Many people experience the cycle of starving themselves or relying on caffeine, only to face digestive issues and dizziness. In TKM, we follow a systematic approach that the body can naturally sustain. First, we clear internal waste. Accumulated toxins, known as Phlegm-fluid (Dameum) or Blood Stasis (Eohyeol), act like sludge in an engine. We must gently remove these toxins to create a foundation for a healthy metabolism. Without this step, even the best diet may fail because the body's circulation remains blocked. Once the foundation is set, we focus on burning body fat. Specific herbal prescriptions generate a mild internal heat to raise your basal metabolic rate (BMR), creating an effect similar to exercising even while at rest. You may feel a slight dryness in your mouth; this is a natural sign that your body is adapting and increasing its energy expenditure. For those who feel they gain weight despite eating very little, the cause is often 'Spleen Deficiency' (Biheo). By restoring the digestive and distributive functions of the Spleen, the energy from food is converted into vitality rather than being stored as fat. This shifts your constitution toward a healthier, more energetic state. Finally, to prevent the 'yo-yo effect,' we replenish Qi and Blood. When the body loses weight, it instinctively tries to regain it by triggering hunger. By tonifying these deficiencies in the latter stages of treatment, we provide a 'safety lock' that helps the body recognize the lower weight as its new normal. Our goal is not just to reduce the number on the scale, but to create a body that can efficiently burn its own energy.
