Q. It's difficult for me to make it to Misa. Is it possible to get a prescription for diet herbal medicine via remote consultation?

I truly understand how demanding a busy professional life can be, and I empathize with the need for convenience. Remote prescriptions are ideal for those living outside the Misa area or those who cannot leave their workplace during business hours. Additionally, it allows you to carefully organize and communicate your symptoms in writing. However, there are certain limitations. In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), the physical examination process—such as taking the pulse and palpating the abdomen—is crucial. To provide a more precise prescription, I need to personally assess the accumulation of 'Eohyeol' (blood stasis) or 'Dameum' (phlegm-fluid retention) within the body. Furthermore, conditions such as 'Bi-heo' (Spleen deficiency or impaired digestive function) can be easily overlooked without a face-to-face evaluation. Therefore, while remote prescriptions are available, the suitability depends on the individual. For simple weight management or maintaining a previous prescription, remote consultation is highly efficient. However, if you have underlying medical conditions or a sensitive constitution, an in-person visit is significantly safer and more accurate. Please feel free to reach out via the method most convenient for you.
