Q. What are the specific steps involved in a weight loss program at a TKM clinic?

Many people try fasting blindly, but that often leads to fatigue and dizziness. To avoid this, we use a meticulous step-by-step approach. First, we thoroughly examine your current state to identify the presence of 'Eohyeol' (瘀血, stagnant blood) or 'Dameum' (痰飮, abnormal fluid accumulation). Clearing these obstructions is essential for smooth metabolic function. The first 1-2 weeks serve as the 'Adaptation Period.' During this time, your body adjusts to the herbal medicine, flushing out toxins and gradually regulating appetite. You will start to feel your body becoming lighter. Next is the 'Weight Loss Phase.' For those with 'Bi-heo' (脾虛, deficiency of the Spleen), digestive power is low, which slows down metabolism. We supplement this function to shift your body into a fat-burning constitution, increasing your basal metabolic rate alongside dietary adjustments. Finally, we enter the 'Maintenance and Stabilization Phase.' This step prevents the 'yo-yo effect' by helping the brain and body recognize and remember the reduced weight. For long-term success, the overall constitution must be transformed. We will monitor your body's response at each stage together. Rather than rushing, we will carefully align the treatment to your specific needs.
