The concerns patients share in the clinic are often quite similar—ranging from 'swelling even after drinking water' to 'stress-induced binge eating.' Having struggled with late-night cravings myself in the past, I deeply empathize with these challenges. In clinical practice, patients generally fall into two categories. The first is the Spleen Qi Deficiency (비허, Biheo) type, where patients feel heavy and suffer from poor digestion. In Traditional Korean Medicine, a weak Spleen leads to the accumulation of metabolic waste known as Phlegm-fluid (담음, Dameum). For these individuals, extreme fasting only leads to exhaustion and a rapid yo-yo effect. By using herbal medicine to reinforce the digestive system and boost metabolism, they often feel a strange but pleasant sensation: 'I have plenty of energy, yet I don't feel hungry.' The second type involves Blood Stasis (어혈, Eo-hyeol), where stagnant circulation causes the body to feel swollen and firm. These patients often feel frustrated because their weight remains stagnant despite intense exercise. Once we use herbs to clear waste and improve circulation, the body finally begins to feel light and responsive. Of course, the process is unique to everyone. While many find appetite control easy, those with sensitive constitutions might initially experience heart palpitations or trouble sleeping. These are often natural signals that the body's metabolic rate is increasing. Through detailed consultation, we can fine-tune the 'optimal concentration' for your body, which is the most critical step for a healthy and sustainable transformation.
