Avoid illness with iridology
Did you know? The Iris (that’s the centre of your eye) can reveal amazing truths about every single organ in your body. The study of the iris, otherwise known as Iridology is used to diagnose underlying signs of developing disease.
How it works
Iridology is a safe, non-invasive way of detecting health problems in their earliest stages – from physical health conditions to emotional disorders. The iris is made up of hundreds of thousands of nerve endings thought to be connected by impulses to every tissue of the body. An iridologist uses a special lamp and magnifying glass to carefully examine your eyes and look for any changes or disturbances in the tiny fibres of your iris. A typical assessment usually takes around an hour.
How it can help
Iridology can be used as a constructive tool for allowing you to recognise and understand your body’s weaknesses so that you can protect yourself against illnesses.
Is it proven?
As with most alternative therapies, Iridology has its opponents; many doctors and health practitioners have dismissed it as quackery, while there are also thousands of patients the world over who swear by its benefits. The best way to work out if it’s right for you is to book a one-off session and give it a go.
Cost
A one hour consultation should cost around $70 - $80, some Iridologists also offer shorter consultations for a reduced fee.
What happens afterwards…
After the Iridologist has examined your eyes they may provide you with photographs of your iris to highlight any disturbances in your Iris fibres that may denote underlying illness. An Iridologist can then make recommendations for natural, herbal remedies specific to your needs.

Funny that, I only thought about iridology a day ago, and now this article appears. Love it, it diagnoses your health and wellbeing through your iris'.

Hmm sounds interesting, I'm slightly skeptical but I'd give it a go

Studied the eye organ intensively in university. Don't believe this one bit! Pretty sure any of the herbal remedies will be generally good for people anyway!

Herbal remedies can have devastating side effects just like prescription medicine can, but the patient usually isn't informed of this issue. How is the dosage measured? Herbs grown in one place may have higher levels of certain chemicals than herbs grown elsewhere. Have they been clinically tested? Also, they can be an expensive waste of a sick person's time while they should be seeking a scientifically proven treatment.
You know what they call alternative medicine that works? Medicine.

I actually did a course on this many years ago. It really is clever and interesting. Beena while since I last did a reading, might be time to take a good look at myself and see what I see!

I also go Natural before a GP, I was taken by my mum to a Naturopath when I was about 13 and have used them ever since - however I'm not one to ignore that Natural must be used in conjunction with your GP. East must meet West, try not to favour one over the other.

When sick I try natural before heading to doc. I just wish there wasn't such a negativity with Doctors about natural remedies.

I was at work a few years ago (working a retail environment) when a woman approached me out of nowhere and said you have problems with your kidneys & you need to do this. I must have had a wtf? look on my face because she then explained she was an iridologist! Was very strange but she was spot on as I had problems with my kidney's previously.

I've had this done before and the lady didn't only study my iris, but my whole eye, the colour and patterns in it as well as the veins on the whites of my eyes. I got a very detailed report. She was pretty accurate as far as I could tell. It's really interesting!

I've had mine read at an expo before. From the reading the reader pinpointed a few areas and suggested what I could do to improve those areas. I'd really like to get a more thorough reading sometime as I truely believe our eyes are the windows to our souls and our body functions.

Never heard of this treatment before and it sounds interesting but I think there must be other ways to give more accurate results?
