Visit intervals are adjusted to symptom intensity. First 2 to 4 weeks : twice a week, to check the response to acupuncture and to establish the breathing practice Stabilizing phase : once a week, extending the interval as episodes begin to shorten Maintenance : every two weeks or monthly, focused on reviewing daily rhythm If constitution-based herbal medicine is combined, we sometimes schedule early visits a little closer together in order to track changes in digestion and sleep while you are taking it. Dongjedang Korean Medicine Clinic is located on Dongsan-ro in Dong-gu, Incheon, convenient from Dongincheon Station and the Songnim-dong, Hwasu-dong, and Manseok-dong areas. If you work near Dongincheon, an after-work visit may be possible, but closing times and daily schedules change from season to season, so please call 032-765-7733 to confirm and book in advance . 💡 Korean Medicine Clinic Perspective For this symptom, keeping a steady interval works better than cramming several sessions together, because lowering the body arousal level is a cumulative process. So we prioritize setting an interval you can actually keep rather than an ambitious schedule.

Tightness, pressure, or a band-like feeling in the chest when heart and lung tests come back normal, often linked to tension, anxiety, and shallow breathing.
