Q. How can I get a non-face-to-face Korean medicine diet prescription in Uijeongbu?

A.

1. Apply for a consultation via our website or phone, and we will send you a medical questionnaire. 2. In a non-face-to-face video or phone consultation, we ask about your symptoms and lifestyle in detail. 3. We prescribe customized herbal medicine considering causes such as spleen deficiency (biheo) or phlegm-fluid (dameum). 4. The medicine is safely delivered via courier, and we provide medication management and dietary advice through KakaoTalk. 5. Follow-up consultations are conducted every 2 to 4 weeks to adjust the treatment progress.

📝 Detailed Answer

If you are considering non-face-to-face treatment for the first time, you might wonder, 'Can it work even without feeling the pulse?' However, this method is actually useful because we can listen more carefully to details about your daily digestion, bowel movements, sleep patterns, and other aspects of your everyday life. Even if you are in Uijeongbu, our Baekrokdam Korean Medicine Clinic offers nationwide non-face-to-face care. Let me explain the process briefly. **Step 1: Consultation application and medical history** Apply for a 'non-face-to-face diet consultation' via our website or phone, and we send you a simple questionnaire. Please fill in your height, weight, usual eating habits, bloating or constipation issues, and any concerns about herbal medicine. Based on this information, we get a rough idea of your constitutional tendencies. **Step 2: Non-face-to-face consultation (video/phone)** The consultation lasts about 20–30 minutes. It is helpful if you send photos of your tongue or abdomen beforehand. In this step, we comprehensively assess whether you have spleen deficiency (biheo), phlegm-fluid (dameum), or blood stasis (eo-hyeol). We also discuss realistic concerns, like 'I used to stress out when I tried not to eat late-night snacks.' **Step 3: Custom prescription and medicine delivery** Based on the assessed constitution and symptoms, we compose an herbal medicine prescription. For example, if spleen deficiency is predominant, we add herbs that support digestive function; if phlegm-fluid is suspected, we include herbs that regulate excess moisture in the body. After prescription, the medicine is prepared at a pharmacy and safely shipped to you via courier. The cost is explained during consultation—while we cannot state specific efficacy figures under medical law, you can understand it as 'aiming to improve constitution without side effects.' **Step 4: Medication management and lifestyle coaching** Along with the medicine, we send instructions on how to take it, meal timing, and light exercise tips via KakaoTalk—practical advice like 'Take this herbal medicine 30 minutes after meals, and try to avoid eating soup as much as possible.' After some trial and error with confusing information, I realized that consistency is ultimately the key. **Step 5: Follow-up consultations (every 2–4 weeks)** We conduct a non-face-to-face follow-up after the first 2 weeks, and then at monthly intervals. We check whether the medicine is suiting you, any changes in digestion or sleep, and fine-tune the prescription if necessary. Please think of dieting not as short-term strain, but as 'a process of restoring the body's balance through Korean medicine.' Feel free to ask anytime if you have questions.
