Liverpool Iridology
Iridology is a diagnostic tool that is used as a complimentary alternative medicine practice that involves analysing the patterns, colours, and other characteristics of the iris (the coloured part of the eye) to determine information about a person's overall health and well-being.
How Iridology works is that specific areas, zones, or markings in the iris correspond to specific organs, tissues, or body systems and we can identify are inherent weaknesses or dispositions to illness and disease.
During an iridology examination, a practitioner examines the iris using magnifying glass and uses a specialist professional camera which is adapted to take images of the Iris in great details.
They look for various signs, such as colour variations, patterns, spots, lines, and other features that are believed to indicate potential health imbalances or predispositions. Based on their observations, iridologists may make assessments and provide recommendations for addressing any perceived issues
