Remote Prescription Process

Q. How can I receive a non-face-to-face herbal prescription for weight loss in Cheongla?

A.

It's simpler than you think. 1) Book a non-face-to-face consultation online or by phone. 2) At the scheduled time, we discuss your symptoms and lifestyle via video call. 3) I prescribe herbal medicine tailored to your constitution and condition. 4) It's prepared and delivered to your home. 5) During treatment, I check your progress via text or app and adjust the prescription if needed. It may feel awkward at first—I felt that way too—but it works smoothly.

📝 Detailed Answer

Even with non-face-to-face care, the core principles remain the same. After booking, I carefully assess your digestion, bowel movements, sleep, fatigue, and tongue photos (舌診, tongue diagnosis). While I cannot take your pulse directly, through detailed inquiry (問診) I determine whether your pattern is spleen qi deficiency (脾虛), phlegm-dampness (痰飮), or blood stasis (瘀血). For example, if you feel bloated after eating and your face tends to swell, I consider spleen deficiency with phlegm-dampness. If you feel heavy, have loose stools, and no appetite, spleen deficiency is the main factor. Based on your constitution and symptoms, I prepare a decoction (탕약), powder (산제), or pill (환제) and send it via courier. After you start taking it, I follow up every 1–2 weeks via video or messaging to fine-tune the dosage and formula. Honestly, I had doubts about non-face-to-face at first, but after some trial and error, I now find that with tongue photos and symptom records, I can make over 80% of the diagnosis. The rest is filled in through ongoing conversation. The key is consistent monitoring of your body's response, whether in person or remotely, so please feel free to reach out without hesitation.
