Q. It's difficult for me to travel all the way to Busan because of my job. How does the process of receiving a non-face-to-face prescription for diet herbal medicine work?

I realized that for many patients, traveling to the clinic can be a significant burden, which is why I developed this remote system. First, we start with a basic medical history intake and consultation. Rather than focusing solely on the number on the scale, I carefully examine your dietary habits, previous weight loss experiences, digestive health, and sleep quality. Next, we conduct a detailed remote consultation via video or phone. In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), it is crucial to determine if you are experiencing 'Bi-heo' (脾虛)—a deficiency in the Spleen function that leads to a decline in energy metabolism. Based on this diagnosis, I prescribe medicine tailored to your specific constitution. It is essential to first clear out 'Eohyeol' (瘀血, blood stasis) and 'Dameum' (痰飮, accumulated fluid/phlegm) to ensure a smooth metabolic process. If one simply starves without addressing these internal blockages, they will inevitably succumb to fatigue. Once the medicine is carefully decocted and prepared at the clinic, it is securely packaged and shipped via courier. Finally, we maintain constant communication to monitor the changes in your body and adjust the prescription accordingly. Through my own experience, I've learned that dieting is not about finding a single 'correct answer,' but rather a process of gradually refining the path that best suits your individual body. Let's find that balance together.
