What is the specific process for weight loss management at a Korean medicine clinic?

Having experienced the pitfalls of crash dieting myself—feeling dizzy and completely drained—I understand why a sustainable approach is vital. At our clinic, we address the root cause of why weight loss has stalled. 1. **Constitution and Metabolic Diagnosis**: We begin by assessing your current state. We determine if you are experiencing fatigue despite high appetite, or if chronic edema (swelling) is hindering your progress. 2. **Clearing Metabolic Waste**: In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), we prioritize removing 'Eohyeol' (瘀血, blood stasis) and 'Dameum' (痰飮, abnormal fluid accumulation) that obstruct the flow of Qi and blood. Removing these 'metabolic wastes' is essential for restoring efficient metabolism. 3. **Improving Digestion and Absorption**: We address 'Bi-heo' (脾虛), or Spleen deficiency. When the Spleen's function is weakened, metabolism slows down. By strengthening this system, we help your body use energy more efficiently. 4. **Step-by-Step Customized Prescriptions**: Herbal medications are tailored to your individual needs and adjusted in stages. Pushing the body too hard too quickly can lead to shock and a rebound effect (yo-yo effect); thus, we allow your body to adapt gradually. 5. **Lifestyle Integration**: While the herbal medicine provides support, we work together to establish a sustainable diet and sleep rhythm that you can maintain long-term. Ultimately, dieting is not about 'eating less,' but about 'creating a body that burns efficiently.' Once you restore your body's natural rhythm, achieving and maintaining your goal becomes much easier.
