Iridology is the science of analyzing the iris, the colored part of the eye, which is connected to every organ and tissue in the body through thousands of nerve endings (over 28,000). It works as a reflexive system, when something happens in the body at one nerve ending, you can see it in the iris at the other nerve ending.

The iris reveals inherent strengths and vulnerabilities of the physical body and mental/emotional body. Iridology reveals the health of all systems of the body: the brain and nervous system, the blood, the lymphatic system, the digestive system, the endocrine system, the reproductive system, body structure, and the respiratory system. It also identifies inflammation, vulnerable tissues, and the stage of disease, helping bring awareness to underlying issues to support healing.

The History of Iridology

In 1000 BC, Chaldeans of Babylonia carved stone slabs depicting the iris and its relationship to the body. The ancient Egyptians and Hippocrates also studied the markings of the iris. In 1670 AD Phillippus Meyens described the first iris chart. Fast-forward to present time and there are hundreds of books and classes offered on Iridology. The Germans developed a system that goes into fine details of the iris, magnifying them to extreme degrees.
