What is Holisitc Iridology?

Iridology  is the science and practice of analyzing the iris to
reveal levels of health, inflammation, toxicity, and degeneration in
the human body.  Iridology provides a painless and economical
means of assessing the body for early detection of health
imbalances for preventive healthcare.

Nature has provided us with an invaluable insight into the
vital status of the health of the individual through the science of
Iridology and Sclerology (analysis of  the lines in the whites).
It enables us to ascertain the person’s genetic predisposition
to health and disease, the general constitution, the state of the
organs and glands, digestive and assimilation difficulties, toxic
accumulations, health effects of stress, and more!

This science is not new, but several thousand years old.  
Iridology has progressed tremendously since the mid 1800's.  
Numerous scientists and doctors worldwide have been using
and researching Iridology on humans over the last 125 years.
Dr. Bernard Jensen, renowned Iridologist and Nutritionist,
pioneered the science of Iridology here in the U.S.  Many other
Iridologists worldwide have expanded upon this work.  
With the use of microscopes and digital imagery over
the past 20 years, research has advanced rapidly.

Each eye  gives us different information.  The left eye
correlates with the left side of the body and the right side of the
brain, which is that feminine, creative, conceptual, and intuitive
side of us.  The right eye correlates to the right side of the body,
and left side of the brain, which is that analytical, practical, linear,
masculine side of us.

Iridology is an integral part of the preventive health care system.
The iris will alert us to the early signs of approaching "dis-ease". As
the evaluations are made, and the stress conditions understood,
proper corrective measures can be applied.  The body can then more
easily adjust and alleviate the abnormal stress resulting in a greater
degree of health enabling a person to avert any threatening disease.
It is an invaluable asset in the form of remedial therapies.

What to expect for your Iridology Analysis - A series of 14-16 state-of-the-art magnified digital
images will be taken of your irises and sclera (white portion) of the eye.  These images will be
brought up immediately on the computer screen for you to view. I will go over each photo with you
to outline your genetic strengths and weakness, as well as possible accumulations, such as:
overacid body pH, cholesterol/inorganic salt plaque build-up, toxic accumulations, mucous or
lymphatic congestion, or uric acid build up, and nutritional and digestive needs.  This over-all body
picture is an advantageous step in directing your health program to both strengthen and prevent.  I
will listen to all of your health concerns and do an intake form regarding your dietary habits, bowel
habits, past and present medical history and symptoms.

Sclerology  - Analysis of the whites of the eyes

Even though these photos aren't pretty they give us valuable
information. Most Iridologists also incorporate the study of
Sclerology into their assessments.  Sclerology is the study of the
whites of the eyes, interpreting the red lines, colorations, and
markings in the sclera as they relate to the person’s health.  This
was based on the twelve meridians and the yin and yang aspect of
each meridian.

The Chinese saw the lines in the sclera as a reflection of the
lymphatic fluid which bathes every cell in relation to the principles
of acupuncture. This principle concludes that imbalances in the
meridian energy register in the sclera.  Native American Indians
also analyzed the eyes to get a better understanding of the
stresses affecting a person’ health.
The sclera gives us more immediate information regarding current pathology and conditions in the body.  This is also where
healing signs will show up first making quality photograph records important for comparisons.  We may see varying levels of
congestion, arterial build-up, fatty build-up, the immune system compromised, encapsulation or tumors forming, tissue
hardening, drug settlement in organs, or insufficency in organ function, and many other signs.  Serious warning signs can be
seen before the symptoms have become manifest.  This is invaluable for preventive healthcare!

The iris is the most complex external tissue structure
of the human anatomy.  The iris is connected to every organ
and tissue of the body by way of the brain and nervous system
and is in direct contact with the bioenergetic, biochemical,
structural, hormonal, and metabolic processes of the body
via the nerves, blood vessels, muscle fibers, and lymph.
It is used to accurately assess both physical and emotional
patterns, as well as your strengths and weaknesses, and the
deeper issues you are learning to heal.
