I'm curious about how to get a diet herbal medicine prescription remotely in Bundang.

1. Schedule a remote consultation via our website or phone. 2. Fill out a detailed questionnaire about your diet, digestion, sleep, and bowel habits. 3. Have a 15-20 minute video or phone consultation where the Korean medicine doctor assesses your constitution and condition. 4. The prescribed herbal medicine is prepared and sent via courier, along with usage instructions and lifestyle advice.

Remote diagnosis is not less thorough — in fact, the questionnaire becomes even more critical. I initially thought, 'How can you treat someone through a screen?' but after some trial and error, I realized the questionnaire is the real key. First, the form we send is not a simple checklist; it includes questions to differentiate patterns like Pi deficiency (脾虛, spleen qi deficiency), Tan Yin (痰飮, phlegm-fluid retention), or Xue Yu (瘀血, blood stasis). For example, 'Do you feel sleepy right after eating?' or 'Is your stool loose or hard?' Second, during the remote consultation, we examine your tongue (舌診, she zhen) via camera and listen to your voice tone and breathing. A thick tongue with tooth marks suggests Pi deficiency, while prominent sublingual veins indicate Xue Yu, guiding the herbal formula. Third, prescriptions are typically given in 2-week courses; we monitor your response via a follow-up remote visit and adjust as needed. Diet herbal medicine aims not just to suppress appetite but to strengthen the Spleen-Stomach (脾胃, pi wei) to improve metabolism. Finally, after the medicine arrives, we provide detailed instructions via chat or phone, including how to handle any digestive discomfort. Relying solely on herbs while overeating will reduce effects, but many patients find their appetite naturally regulates as their body feels lighter. Even remotely, we can collaborate closely, so feel free to reach out without hesitation.
