Q. I want to lose weight quickly like celebrities do. What are the steps for a diet program at a Korean medicine clinic?

Many people try extreme fasting out of desperation, but this often leads to dizziness and lethargy. Weight loss is not about forced suppression, but about shifting the body's overall flow. Our process follows these four key stages: 1. Diagnosis of Constitution and Condition: We first assess the accumulation of Dam-eum (痰飮), which refers to metabolic waste and fluids that have stagnated in the body. Since every individual's constitution differs, a personalized approach is essential. 2. Activating the Metabolic Switch: For patients with Bi-heo (脾虛), a deficiency in the Spleen/Digestive system resulting in low energy, we first boost vital energy. It is like pushing a stalled car to get it rolling again. 3. Personalized Prescriptions for Circulation: We prescribe herbal medicines to resolve Eo-hyeol (瘀血)—stagnant blood or blood stasis—and enhance basal metabolism. Rather than simply enduring hunger, we create an internal environment where the body efficiently burns fat. 4. Correction of Lifestyle Habits: While utilizing herbal support, we gradually lower the 'set point' of the weight your body considers normal. This is the most effective way to prevent the dreaded 'yo-yo effect' (weight regain). My goal is not just to reduce the number on the scale, but to make you feel light and refreshed when you wake up every morning. Let's find a sustainable yet certain path to your health together.
