Remote Prescription Process
Remote Prescription Process

Q. How do I use a non-face-to-face diet Korean Medicine clinic in Changwon, and what is the process?

A.

Remote treatment is divided into four steps: ① Apply for online consultation → ② Video consultation to assess constitution and condition → ③ Receive customized herbal medicine by delivery after prescription → ④ Check progress and adjust every 2–4 weeks. At first I wondered if it would work, but it saves time and lets you consult comfortably at home. Especially recommended for office workers.

📝 Detailed Answer

Let me explain the process in more detail. First, book a non-face-to-face consultation through our Baekrokdam Korean Medicine Clinic website or by phone. Within 1–2 days, a counselor will contact you to ask for basic health information and weight change records. You might wonder, 'Are they just sending medicine?' but that's not the case. During the actual video consultation, the director spends 20–30 minutes with you, using tongue diagnosis (舌診, seoljin) and inquiry diagnosis (問診, munjin) instead of pulse diagnosis (脈診, maekjin) to identify constitutional causes such as spleen deficiency (脾虛, biheo), phlegm-fluid retention (痰飮, dameum), or blood stasis (瘀血, eohyeol). I also initially doubted how constitution could be assessed remotely, but tongue diagnosis and lifestyle interviews reveal surprisingly much. After diagnosis, we prepare personalized herbal medicine and deliver it to your home along with medication guidelines. Importantly, we follow up every 2 weeks via video or phone to adjust dosage or composition—it's not just 'take medicine and done' but a collaborative process tailored to your body's response. Typically, you notice changes in bloating and digestion within the first 1–2 weeks, and after about a month, constitution improvement begins to form new habits. Of course, results vary greatly, and it doesn't completely eliminate the risk of rebound weight gain, but our goal is to help you break free from repeated cycles of failure.
