Yon Korean Medicine Clinic in Pung-dong/Siksa-dong
Customized Herbal Medicine for Students in the New Semester

Hello, this is Dr. Hong Ji-yeon, Director of Yon Korean Medicine Clinic.

March has arrived, and the weather has become much warmer as if the cold never existed. I hope you can find some time to enjoy a leisurely spring walk. As for me, I’m putting walks on hold for a moment—haha—because there is a backlog of herbal prescriptions that I need to focus on preparing.

Is this a student special edition today? It turned out that I am only introducing remedies for students. ^^

We receive many visits and inquiries from students during school breaks and the new semester. Managing health during this time is essential for a healthy school life, so please don't hesitate to ask if you have any concerns.

You can easily reach us via Kakao Channel, Instagram DM, or by phone.
Inquiries: 031-935-5758

Case 01

Students Complaining of Cold Hands and Feet

This student has never experienced warm hands or feet since childhood. As early as autumn, their calves, feet, and hands would turn cold, and even with thermal socks, fur-lined boots, and heavy blankets, the chill wouldn't go away.

By combining decoction medication with acupuncture treatment, the coldness disappeared, and their condition improved enough to feel warmth radiating through their limbs.

After one month of taking the medication, the student is now receiving acupuncture twice a week to prevent recurrence. Their recovery was faster because they followed the medical guidance so well.

Case 02

Students Complaining of Knee Pain

This student is growing well without any major issues, but they would occasionally mention knee pain similar to growing pains. Each time, the parent noted that the pain subsides after taking herbal medicine.

They visited saying, "Please prepare the same medicine as last time for the knee pain!"

As the child is in a growth phase, it was necessary to replenish what was lacking, and the herbal prescription proved effective.

Case 03

Students Complaining of Dizziness

This student presented with several symptoms, but the one they found most difficult and had endured the longest was dizziness. Notably, they suffered from prominent orthostatic vertigo.

We prescribed medication to clear unnecessary dampness (phlegm) from the body and replenish deficient blood. The dizziness has largely resolved, and the student is currently being treated for other symptoms.

Case 04

Examinees with Frequent Nosebleeds

This student, who usually has a weak digestive system, visited us complaining of persistent nosebleeds due to stress before an exam.

Given the symptoms in a cold and dry environment on top of depleted energy, we prescribed ingredients to boost energy and promote hemostasis.

Case 05

Growth Herbal Medicine for
Highly Stressed Children

This child is currently living abroad and visiting Korea temporarily. They came in for growth and physical stamina, but our evaluation revealed significant pent-up stress.

Since they won't return until the next break, we prescribed a two-month supply. For students studying abroad, depending on their personality, those who are ambitious and dislike losing often experience a high degree of stress.

If this stress is not addressed, it can negatively impact growth, sleep, and digestion, making early treatment essential.
