I remember when I was overwhelmed by work; my body felt heavy, yet my appetite remained constant, making me realize that weight loss isn't just about willpower. In such cases, non-face-to-face prescriptions are a great alternative. For those who primarily need appetite suppression, remote guidelines are often sufficient. However, the approach differs for those with 'Spleen Deficiency' (Bi-heo, 脾虛), characterized by weakened digestive function and a tendency to bloat. For these individuals, simply suppressing appetite can lead to a further decline in vital energy (Qi). We also need to consider internal waste, such as 'Phlegm-fluid' (Dameum, 痰飮)—stagnant bodily fluids—and 'Blood Stasis' (Eohyeol, 瘀血)—congested blood. If metabolism is stalled due to these factors, combining herbal medicine with physical treatments like acupuncture or Chuna manual therapy is significantly more efficient. Ultimately, the key is determining how exhausted your body currently is. If you are in relatively good condition and seeking efficient management, a remote prescription is a great choice. But if you are experiencing severe fatigue, body aches, or insomnia, I strongly recommend an in-person visit. Let's discuss and find the most comfortable path for your health.
