Q. Can I get herbal medicine prescribed remotely without visiting the clinic in person?
Yes, it is possible. However, since Traditional Korean Medicine diagnoses vary greatly by individual, a customized prescription is provided after a detailed remote consultation to assess your current condition.
📝 Detailed Answer
Many busy professionals struggle to find time to visit the clinic. However, herbal medicine is not just about treating symptoms; the process of restoring the body's overall balance is crucial.
Particularly for weight loss herbal medicine, the direction of the prescription differs completely depending on whether the patient is in a state of Spleen Deficiency (Bi-heo) with weak digestive function, or a state of Phlegm Accumulation (Dam-jeok) where waste products have built up. If a person with weak spleen function uses potent medicinal herbs, it may cause gastrointestinal discomfort.
