What is it?

     Iridology is the science and practice of studying the iris of the eye for inherent strengths and/or weaknesses.  The colors and patterns of the eyes represent a detailed picture of the integrity of the body.  Thus, it shows areas of congestion, toxic accumulations, stress, etc.  Also, iridology helps in determining tendencies toward certain types of personalities (i.e. introvert or extrovert, etc.).

    

     Our Creator has provided us with a non-invasive way of looking at the body as a whole, hence the term Window of the Soul.  If we could only begin to imagine that GOD has given us everything we need, we can begin to understand that this process of reading the eyes is truly a simple procedure.  We learn that the body works as a whole, not separate from each other, as referenced in the scriptures,

1 Corinthians 12:14-26.

 

We do not catch diseases, we create them by breaking down the natural defenses according to the way we eat, drink, think, and live.

Clinical HOLISTIC IRIDOLOGY

Your Eyes Reveal Your Health!"

What is iridology (pronounced, eye-ri-dology)?  Many people today are talking about how we can see our level of health through looking at our eyes.  This brief explanation will serve as an introduction to the art and science of Iridology.  The science and practice of Iridology is performed by analyzing this iris along with the sclera (sometimes referred to as Sclerology).

From the physiological aspect the eyes are connected and continuous with the brain's dura mater through the fibrous sheath of the optic nerves.  This connection gives direct contact with the biochemical, hormonal, structural and metabolic processes of the body via the nerves, blood vessels, lymph and connective tissue.  This information is recorded in the various structures of the eye, i.e. iris, retina, sclera, cornea, pupil and conjunctiva.  Thus, it can be said that the eyes are a reflex or "window" into the bioenergetics of the physical body and a person's feelings and thoughts.

The topographic map of the irises has representation and location for all the structures of the body.  This map or chart bears a correlation to the embryological development of the human fetus.  System Assessment through external ophthalmic examination.  Genetic information about an individual's strengths and weaknesses can be interpreted through the connective tissue of the irises, including its structure, pigmentations and accumulations.  Iris analysis can uncover hereditary predispositions to degenerative conditions and early pathogenesis decades before symptoms occur or diagnostic testing may reveal.  Changes in health are a function not of genetics alone but also of the way a person eats, drinks, feels, thinks and lives.

THE SCIENCE

The science and practice of Iridology is not new.  The oldest records uncovered thus far have shown that a form of iris interpretation was used in Central Asia (Mesopotamia) as far back as 1,000 BC, nearly 3000 years ago.  In the Bible, St. Luke writes that Christ said, "The lamp of your body is the eye.  When your eyes are sound, you have light for the whole body, but when your eyes are bad, you are in darkness".

During the first half of the 20th century, iris diagnosis (as it was called then) was utilized primarily by medical doctors here in the United States.  Due to increasing political and economic pressure upon medical schools by the pharmaceutical industry, the teaching of iridology was removed from the curriculum.  Eventually this art and science was lost within the allopathic (western) medical practice.   However, it was kept alive by naturopathic physicians in the latter half of the 20th century.  Most notably, Bernard Jensen, D.C., N.D., Ph.D was the champion of this valuable tool of assessment until his passing at age 93.  Also of significant import was Hp. Josef Deck and Hp. Josef Angerer of Germany.  Today, Iridology is practiced worldwide, and in Europe it has been used clinically for generations.

AN ADVANCED SYSTEM TODAY

A system of iris analysis, called Holistic Iridology (R), includes and goes beyond the traditional physical assessment.  Through this advanced system it is possible to understand the whole person.  Mental, emotional and spiritual aspects can also be interpreted.

By being made aware of their conscious and subconscious behavior patterns and influences of genetic memory, beyond just physical characteristics, individuals are able to understand  the origins of their conditions and afflictions, enabling them to positively transform their lives on all levels.  Thus, Iridology is an excellent tool of analysis for prevention of illness and disease at the root causes.  In many cases, conditions can be detected 20 years or more prior to symptoms or clinical health problems.  A high risk area in the body can actually be observed in an infant.  Thus, it is possible to assess potential pathogeneses decades before onset from a holistic perspective. There is no need for diagnosing, that task is left to the medical environment.  It is interesting that in Europe Iridology is routinely used as part of the curriculum and in Russian hospitals "you get an iris analysis"!

HOW TO

Iris analysis is most effectively done by digital imaging of both eyes with a specialized Iriscope.  The pictures are enlarged and carefully examined by a qualified Iridologist who possesses the highest skills and standards.  Unfortunately there are unqualified persons out there that have misused the science and misinformed the public about their health conditions in order to market products; which does nothing but damage the legitimacy of the profession that has a rich and deep history.  And, it is an egregious insult to all those that spent their lives dedicated to laying and preserving the foundation of this

LASTLY

The eyes are the bridge between the spiritual, mental, emotional and physical aspects of our human nature.  The eye is proclaimed through the ages as the "window of the soul".  How we perceive our world is how we react to it.  When our windows of our perception are truly cleansed, we will see things as they are.  We can do anything, accomplish anything and our perception becomes our experience.  Instead of continuing to create our past, changing just to stay the same.  Toxic encumbrances of the past poisons the physical body.  Clearing the mind, clears the spirit for a healing path of the physical body and all levels of health.
