Coming all the way from Geoje is quite a journey, and I deeply empathize with how exhausting a busy life can be. For those who cannot visit in person, we categorize remote prescriptions into three main types based on the patient's physiological state. First are those who suffer from chronic swelling and a constant feeling of heaviness. In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), this is often referred to as 'Phlegm-fluid' (痰飮). This condition occurs when metabolic waste is not properly excreted and blocks the body's circulation. In these cases, rather than simple fasting, we use prescriptions that 'wash away' these accumulated wastes to help the body feel lighter. Second are those who gain weight despite eating very little and feel constantly fatigued. This is likely a state of 'Spleen Deficiency' (脾虛), where the digestive system fails to convert nutrients into energy and instead stores them as fat. For these individuals, it is crucial to tonify 'Qi' (vital energy) to boost the basal metabolic rate. Third are those who are sensitive to medication, perhaps having experienced heart palpitations or insomnia from previous diet drugs. This sensitivity can often be linked to 'Blood Stasis' (瘀血) obstructing smooth circulation. The advantage of herbal medicine is that we can finely adjust the concentration and ratio of medicinal herbs through a detailed consultation. By tailoring the formula to your specific constitution, we can significantly reduce the risk of side effects. I look forward to helping you find the most comfortable and effective starting point for your journey through a friendly phone consultation.
