Q I'm looking for a place near Dong-gu, Incheon. How does the first damjeok consultation proceed?
A At the first visit, we listen in detail to your symptoms, eating habits, and lifestyle, and examine the stomach condition through abdominal and tongue diagnosis. Based on this, we decide together on a treatment plan, herbal prescription, and lifestyle management direction.
Detailed Answer
When you first come, we ask thoroughly about when and in what situations your bloating and epigastric stuffiness are worst, and what your eating and sleep habits are, then examine you. We check the mass and tenderness of the epigastrium and jungwan through abdominal palpation and the white tongue coating through tongue diagnosis to grasp the degree of damjeok, and also refer to any test results you have.
Korean Medicine Clinic Perspective
Even with the same damjeok, the cause, constitution, and lifestyle background differ from person to person. We consider it important to grasp those differences fully at the first visit and build a plan tailored to the root cause, rather than merely suppressing symptoms.
