Hello, this is Dr. Yeon-seung Choi of Baengnokdam Oriental Medicine Clinic. Having experienced weight gain myself while sitting in the treatment room all day, I deeply empathize with my patients' struggles. In my consultations, two types of patients are particularly memorable. First is the 'Spleen Deficiency (Biheo)' type, who always feels fatigued and heavy. In Traditional Korean Medicine, when the Spleen's function declines, the body fails to utilize energy efficiently, leading to the accumulation of metabolic waste. For those who feel they swell and gain weight even with minimal food intake, we focus on boosting 'Qi' to revitalize metabolism. Second are those with 'Phlegm-fluid (Dameum)' or 'Blood Stasis (Eohyeol)' caused by frequent social dining and late-night snacks. These are types of physiological residues that obstruct healthy blood circulation. In a city like Busan, where culinary temptations are everywhere, it is naturally difficult to maintain a strict diet. In these cases, we prescribe herbs that help discharge waste and naturally manage appetite. Our remote consultation process is very thorough; we evaluate everything from eating habits to bowel movements via phone calls or digital questionnaires. Patients who previously suffered from jitters or insomnia due to Western diet pills often appreciate the gentle regulatory power of herbal medicine. However, as herbal medicine is a specialized medical prescription, results can vary. I recommend a detailed consultation first to identify your specific constitution and where your body's energy is concentrated.
