Q I'm looking for a Korean medicine clinic near Dongincheon Station. How often do I need to come for colitis treatment?
A It varies by symptom severity, but typically you visit once or twice a week in the early stage, combining acupuncture and herbal medicine. Once symptoms stabilize, this can be adjusted to about once every two weeks, so even working people can continue without difficulty.
Detailed Answer
In the acute stage, we recommend acupuncture twice a week and daily herbal medicine for quick recovery. As you enter remission, visits are reduced to every two weeks or once a month while monitoring your condition. We set a realistic visit plan together, considering your work and family schedule.
Korean Medicine Clinic Perspective
Consistency matters more than the number of visits. Since herbal medicine is taken at home, even those short on time can continue treatment fully.
