Non-face-to-face diet herbal prescription is indeed possible, but it is important to approach it with a clear understanding of its strengths and limitations. The advantages include fewer time and location constraints—you can consult after work or on weekends, even if the clinic is far away. Additionally, non-face-to-face consultations often involve patients sending detailed records of their lifestyle and diet, which can allow for thorough review. The main disadvantage is the limitation on direct examination. In Traditional Korean Medicine, pulse diagnosis (脈診) and tongue diagnosis (舌診) are essential for assessing conditions such as spleen deficiency (脾虛), phlegm-fluid retention (痰飮), and blood stasis (瘀血). These diagnostic methods are difficult or impossible to perform remotely, and subtle findings may be missed. From personal experience introducing non-face-to-face care, some cases work well while others clearly require in-person evaluation. In conclusion, it depends on your situation. If your primary goal is weight management, overall constitution improvement, dietary adjustment, and herbal support, non-face-to-face consultation can be sufficient. However, if you have complex symptoms or need concurrent acupuncture treatment (鍼治療), an in-person visit may be more effective. I recommend starting with a consultation to assess your condition and determine whether non-face-to-face is appropriate.
