Find an Iridology Practitioner
Iridology is a branch of alternative medicine that uses the iris as a window to a patient's health. Iridology practitioners diagnose patients by examining their irises for cell changes indicated by different markings or colors. It's thought that a new marking indicates a potential problem or weakness in a specific area of the body since nerve endings in the eyes are connected to areas all over the body. It's used to diagnose problems and vulnerabilities--rather than specific conditions--in all major organs, including the heart, liver, lungs and brain. Follow these steps to find an iridology practitioner for you.
Instructions
Find an Iridology Practitioner in Your Area
1. Visit the "International Iridology Practitioners Association" (IIPA) Web site to learn more about the discipline of iridology (see Resources below). Be aware that iridology isn't used to diagnose specific problems or diseases, only to locate areas of the body where there might be problems or where there could potentially be problems in the future. It's used mainly to make the patient aware of the types of health issues he or she should be concerned about.
2. Research the different types of iridology practitioners online. Decide which type you want to consult. Also decide what you want to get out of your consultation. Medical and spiritual iridology practitioners have very different methods and thus yield very different results.
3. Call or email the IIPA to ask for a list of iridology practitioners in your area.
4. Set up an appointment with the practitioner who works closest to your home or office. If you're lucky enough to have several to choose from, chat with a few candidates over the phone. Then make an appointment with the person with whom you have the most rapport.
