Many people attempt excessive exercise or extreme dieting to lose lower body weight, but this can often lead to injuries or burnout. In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), lower body obesity is not viewed simply as excess fat, but as a result of accumulated waste products. A key concept here is 'Dam-eum' (痰飮), a condition where impaired fluid metabolism causes waste to stagnate in the lower body. When this is coupled with 'Eo-hyeol' (瘀血)—stagnant or 'dead blood' caused by poor circulation—the legs feel significantly heavier and more swollen. My recommended approach has clear advantages: First, we use customized herbal medicine to treat 'Bi-heo' (脾虛), or Spleen deficiency, which corrects the body's inability to regulate fluids. Simultaneously, acupuncture is used to stimulate specific acupoints and release muscle tension, directly revitalizing circulation. To be honest, there are trade-offs. Unlike some western appetite suppressants that provide an immediate, dramatic drop in cravings, TKM works by changing your body's internal environment. This process takes time and requires the patience to refine your lifestyle habits. The most important step is identifying *why* your body is accumulating waste in the lower body—whether it is due to a weak digestive system or 'Qi stagnation' caused by stress. I look forward to working with you to find the precise method that fits your unique constitution.
