Iridology is the study of the iris to determine potential health problems.

Patterns and markings in the iris are used to reveal emerging conditions in every part of the body and to identify inherited weaknesses that may lead to physical and emotional disorders.

Iridology is a preventative practice that helps people to understand their basic health issues so they can seek treatment, if necessary, from the appropriate specialist.

If a health problem is detected at an early stage something can then be done to prevent it from becoming a full blown disease. For example, a Lacuna (oval shaped structure marking) seen at 30° indicates that a genetic weakness has been passed to the kidney.

HOW DOES IRIDOLOGY WORK?

The basis of iridology is a holistic concept well accepted in other fields of alternative medicine, namely that when examined correctly, each part of the body contains information about other parts of the body.

In chiropractic medicine for example, misalignments of the spine are used to diagnose and treat diseases of the internal organs, in Chinese medicine examinations of the pulse and tongue are regularly included in the diagnostic process. Iridologists believe that as a degenerative disease slowly develops, the iris will reflect the changes.

Doctors also routinely examine the eye for evidence of internal disease. Using an opthalmascope to look at the retina of the eye, they can see how diseases such as diabetes or high blood pressure are affecting blood vessels. Likewise, a close examination of the iris can give information about high cholesterol and certain metabolic ailments.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM IRIDOLOGY

Using high tech computer software a specially designed camera will take a photograph of the eyes, considerably enlarged, so that the complexities of the iris are visible with their numerous fibres and colours which are unique to every individual.

The Iridologist will look for subtle signs of developing illness and discuss the findings with you during the consultation.

You will be informed about any risk factors and given preventative health care suggestions to follow.
