Who This Is For

Q. I live in Gunsan; who would benefit most from receiving a remote prescription for weight-loss herbal medicine?

A.

We recommend remote prescriptions for busy professionals unable to visit the clinic in person or those outside the region seeking the precise prescriptions of Baekrokdam Clinic. It is especially ideal for those who experienced nausea or palpitations after using Western diet aids like Saxenda, or those who feel they need professional medical support because willpower alone has not been enough.

📝 Detailed Answer

In my younger years, I tried fasting based on sheer willpower, but I experienced severe dizziness and a plunge in productivity. Through that trial and error, I realized that the most important step is accurately reading your body's current state first. Remote prescriptions are highly recommended for the following cases: First, those with 'Bi-heo' (Spleen Deficiency), characterized by poor digestive power and easy fatigue. For these individuals, indiscriminate fasting only damages health, necessitating a customized prescription that manages weight while nourishing the body's vital energy (Qi). Second, those suspected of having 'Dameum' (phlegm-fluid retention), which causes a heavy feeling and severe edema, or 'Eohyeol' (blood stasis), where poor circulation leads to weight gain in specific areas. Through remote consultations, we meticulously analyze your eating habits, sleep patterns, and the degree of swelling to determine the optimal herbal composition. Finally, we recommend our approach to those who suffered from severe palpitations or insomnia due to the side effects of Western diet medications and now require the gentle regulation of Traditional Korean Medicine. Rather than forcibly suppressing appetite, my philosophy is to help you naturally increase your metabolism by restoring the body's overall balance. Please feel free to share your concerns, and we will find the best solution together.
