Mitochondrial Dysfunction

Even years of lingering fatigue don't mean you should give up on recovery. However, the longer it's been neglected, the more likely several bodily functions have declined together, so rather than reversing it all at once, it's important to steadily go through the process of replenishing the foundation and restoring circulation. Balancing nutrition, sleep, and manageable activity throughout this process is key to preventing recurrence. That said, if muscle weakness is progressively worsening, a neurological evaluation should come first.

Our Korean Medicine Clinic's Perspective

At Dongjedang, the more depleted the body, the more firmly we build the foundational stage of replenishing the source of vital energy, then proceed to supporting organ function and eliminating accumulated waste. We adjust the pace according to each person's constitution and degree of depletion, so even long-standing fatigue can be brought onto a recovery track without strain.
