Q. Doctor, in what cases would it be best for me to get a remote prescription for diet herbal medicine?

I have personally experienced the struggle of extreme fasting and following fad diets, only to end up feeling dizzy and exhausted. I truly understand the frustration you may feel. In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), weight gain is not viewed simply as a matter of eating too much, but as a result of why your body has become prone to gaining weight. For instance, if you suffer from poor digestion and fatigue, it may be due to Spleen Deficiency (Bi-heo, 脾虛), where weakened spleen function slows down energy metabolism. In such cases, boosting metabolism is more important than simply fasting. Conversely, for those with accumulated waste products causing circulation blocks—known as Phlegm-Fluid (Dameum, 痰飮)—or blood stasis (Eohyeol, 瘀血), the priority is detoxifying and clearing these obstructions. I recommend our services based on these profiles: 1. Those stressed by uncontrollable appetite: Prescriptions that boost metabolism and suppress appetite are helpful. 2. Those with chronic fatigue and heaviness due to swelling: Prescriptions that improve circulation and eliminate waste are ideal. 3. Busy professionals: Remote consultations offer a convenient way to start your wellness journey. However, if you have cardiovascular diseases or severe sleep disorders, the potency of the herbal ingredients must be adjusted with extreme precision. In these cases, I strongly advise visiting the clinic in person so that I can personally check your pulse and physical condition to ensure the safest possible prescription.
