3 Reviews on “Antonella Di Cillo”
I knew nothing of iridology until I visited Antonella. Through this consultation, I learned so much and also had so much useful advice on the use of mushrooms. I have a metastatic renal cell cancer diagnosis, and had started using mushrooms but I now have a much better understanding of which to use and how they work. Antonella is so approachable, knowledgeable and easy to talk to, I would definitely recommend her.
I was looking for a more holistic treatment for some issues I was going through and decided to contact Antonella, a dedicated iridologist currently studying to become an herbalist, who played a crucial role in helping me through this challenging period.
During a time when my mood was erratic, my productivity suffered, and my poor nutrition adversely affected my health and sleep patterns, Antonella’s expertise provided a lifeline. By examining my irises, she crafted a personalized nutritional program that transformed my well-being. This tailored approach stabilized my mental health and improved my diet, leaving me feeling less tired, less bloated, and more focused on my studies. Thanks to Antonella’s guidance, I regained control over my health and life.
My recent time with Antonella as a student of Herbal Medicine and Certified Iridologist was quite a fascinating and lifestyle changing experience.
Over the past year Antonella has passed on her knowledge as a student herbalist to many of us with health questions when meeting up for our yoga classes. Her description of traditional herbal remedies used alongside normal medical options made for interesting consideration.
With Antonella needing people to help her as case studies to certify as Iridologist and Vitalist Nutritionist, I felt that with me being a Type 1 diabetic that would provide a good case study.
I was invited to her studio clinic one afternoon with a very open mind, but excited hopefully to learn myself what holistic medicine could provide.
We spent quite a while going through a very thorough medical questionnaire. Antonella was very professional making the whole experience comfortable and never feeling any question was intrusive.
Once completed Antonella made recommendations of the benefits that changes to diet could provide. None of the recommendations were complicated or unreasonable. Her explanations were clear and very informative. There were a few initial recommendations made in line with my diabetes, but during the session she stepped back and suggested she get clearer information to ensure there were no medical conflicts. That built confidence in her ability to understand and recommend the correct options.
In addition Antonella used her Iridology to build her recommendation. She took pictures of both eyes. From the pictures she broke down areas of my character and health. This was quite outstanding as Antonella made assessments about me that she would have no knowledge of. There were many character observations that I laughed at, because it was right on the button.
She prepared a Bach Flower Remedy that I take in water daily. This will provide a calmer and more balanced addition to my life.
This is another alternative outlook on our lives through non-medical means. At no time does Antonella make you feel that the findings are anything more than making me knowledgeable of the options that could help my life and health in addition to modern options.
The whole experiences had a personal benefit for me as well as understanding some of the changes I could make to my daily life.
Antonella was very professional and knowledgeable during the process. That is outstanding as English is not her first language. The fact that she went away and confirmed recommendation, showed a professional attitude. This is a process that I would recommend Antonella for to anyone wanting to look at themselves from a more natural perspective.
