Q. Doctor, in which cases do you recommend non-face-to-face diet herbal medicine?

A.

I recommend it for those who find it difficult to visit the clinic due to a busy schedule or wish to lightly assess their condition beforehand. It is especially beneficial for those struggling with appetite control or needing systematic support after extreme fasting. However, for those with underlying medical conditions or high sensitivity, an in-person visit is safer.

📝 Detailed Answer

I have personally experienced neglecting my health due to a busy schedule, so I truly understand the struggle. This is why I offer the convenient option of non-face-to-face consultations. First, I recommend this to those under significant stress due to uncontrollable cravings. In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), this is viewed not as a lack of willpower, but as an imbalance of energy (Qi). Specifically, when there is Spleen Deficiency (Bi-heo, 脾虛), the digestive system weakens and energy metabolism slows down, leading to more frequent 'false hunger.' Secondly, I recommend it for those suffering from the yo-yo effect or side effects after using Western diet medications. When there is an accumulation of Blood Stasis (Eo-hyeol, 瘀血) or Phlegm-Fluid (Dam-eum, 痰飮)—which are metabolic waste products—the metabolism slows down, making it easier to develop a constitution that resists weight loss. In such cases, a prescription to clear these wastes and boost metabolism is necessary. To summarize: 1. Those whose busy work schedules make clinic visits impossible $ ightarrow$ Recommended for non-face-to-face care. 2. Those needing simultaneous appetite suppression and metabolic enhancement $ ightarrow$ Recommended for non-face-to-face care. 3. Those with severe anemia, insomnia, or underlying conditions requiring detailed pulse diagnosis $ ightarrow$ In-person visit recommended. While I provide thorough consultations remotely, I believe that confirming your exact physical state in person remains the most efficient path to health.
