Q. I'm worried because I can't seem to lose weight in my lower body no matter what I do. How does a Korean medicine clinic manage lower body obesity?
In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), lower body obesity is often viewed not just as simple fat accumulation, but as a result of severely impaired circulation. For office workers who sit all day, waste products tend to accumulate around the pelvis, hindering blood flow. This is frequently diagnosed as 'Blood Stasis' (Eohyeol) or 'Phlegm-fluid' (Dameum). Rather than simply fasting, a systematic treatment is required to clear these internal blockages and restore the body's natural flow.
