What Is Iridology?

“This is one of nature’s greatest, and at present, only soft tissue analysis. It will give you a road map of your strength and weaknesses. It will also show your congestive (lymphatic) and chemical accumulations. This is invaluable in helping to address your glandular or organ weaknesses.”

– Iridology by Dr. Morse, N.D.

Iridology (also referred to as iridodiagnosis or iridiagnosis) is a medical technique where characteristics of the iris, such as pattern and color, can be examined to determine information about a patient’s systemic health.

Iridology is a science that studies the iris of the eye and its relationship to the tissues in your body.

Understanding the iris is important because the eyes are the entrance points which bring in images of the external world. Most people do not know this, but the eyes can also present an image of the body’s health. The eye has been known as a window to the soul. Well, Iridologists see the eye as the window to true health.

In an iris analysis, practitioners match their observations to iris charts and identify the body’s state of health.

Summary

Iridology is the study of the pigmentation and structure of the iris or colored part of the eye as well as the pupil border and sclera and how they relate to each of the body systems.  Each iris contains 28,000 nerve endings that go to all parts of the body.  The border of the pupil connects directly through the optic nerve which is a bundle of over a million nerves that go to the brain and spinal cord and out to all of the organs and glands of the body. 

Through iris analysis inherited strengths and deficiencies are revealed which allow us to give a tendency towards a  health problem and towards emotional issues that may arise.  The iris acts as your body’s signature blueprint = its a mirror to see the internal site of you similar to the information that a CAT Scan or x-ray picture can show.  

By understanding it, you have an empowering road map towards optimal health and well-being. When you know your weaknesses and problem zones then you can prepare yourself where the expected areas of healing reactions might occur when your body begins to shed off toxins and accumulations with our methods.  

The iris can also reveal the potential for future health risks so that preventive measures can be more effectively applied.

How Does It Work?

The iris is connected to every organ and tissue of the body by way of the nervous system and the brain. The eyes are equipped with hundreds of thousands of nerve endings, microscopic blood vessels, muscles and other tissues, which help act as an extension of the brain.

Nature actually reveals the inside of the body in a natural, non-invasive CT showing the most remote portions of the internal self in the form of nerve reflex responses. Both sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems are present in the iris.

The fibers receive their impulses by their connections to the optic nerve, optic thalami and spinal cord. They are also a direct extension of the brain due to its embryonic development and location.

Nerve fibers in the iris reflect changes in the body tissues by manifesting a correspondence. This parallelism is due to an information exchange through reflex and shows up as tissue changes in the particular location of the iris. Those segments have been mapped out and can be found as Iris Analysis maps.

Even though Iridology is not a conclusive science, data has been collected for over 200 years and shows consistent evidence which can help understand preventative treatment.

The iris (size of a dime) consists of several layers:

• Anterior border layer
• Stroma
• Muscle layer
• Posterior epithelium
• Estimated 28.000 nerve endings.

and zones:

• The optic nerve is a bundle of about 1 Million nerve fibers that transmit impulses from the retina in the back of the eye to the brain. Nerves from the right iris are connected to the left brain hemisphere and visa verse.
• The pupillary zone shows the conditions of GI tract and stomach through the Sphincter muscle.
• The pupil border is directly connected to the spinal cord via the optic nerve.  The black hole is called pupil and lets in the light.
• The so called collarette or autonomic nerve wreath is composed of arteries and nerves from the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system.
• The ciliary zone is found the area outside the collarette towards the iris periphery. This area reflects conditions of all major organs and systems of the body (except stomach and GI tract).
• Sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system of the brain are the basic monitors of all vital activities going on within the body. Physiological changes will show up in the iris tissue presenting information from all parts of the body that have a nerve supply.

There are several nerve pathways and functions to the iris.

• sympathetic and parasympathetic controlling the iris muscle
• vasomotor nerves regulate the nerve flow
• sensory nerves

Sensory and vasomotor nerves come from the cranial nerve, entering the iris root from the ciliary body, spreading throughout the stroma to end near the iris fibers.

“The network of nerves are extraordinarily rich, so much that…every stroma cell and chromatophore receives it’s own nerve supply.”

Strong fibers in the iris are a sign for strong resistance to diseases or strong healing abilities. Fibers that appear more as a loose weave have less resistance to deficiencies and are slower in the recovery process. Especially for people with less resistance knowing their weak points becomes essential in order to take better care of themselves.

At the end they can be stronger than a person with a strong constitution by adjusting and balancing their weaknesses and genetic predispositions early in life.

The iris analysis as an additional tool to get more information helping you to make the changes that are necessary for a quality life with legacy until your last breath.

We prefer to use non-invasive, safe and inexpensive methods that are available to everyone. The sum of all tests and analysis will give a broader perspective about your specific situation. As more information one can gather as more puzzle pieces can come together.

Who Can Benefit?

YOU can benefit if you desire to:

• Get true answers of how to heal – patches are not the fix.
• Use non-invasive and natural methods that can give a reflection of your body inside and its current state of health.
• Naturally heal any chronic conditions such as fatigue, diabetes, high blood pressure, cancer, and other conditions such as weight loss or gain, joint pain, the benefits are endless.
• Be confident with your health. Most people FEEL something isn’t right, but doctors can not identify a problem. In order to be “ahead of the game”, issues are often reflected in the eye long before physical imbalance appears.
• Find long-lasting solutions for a healthy body.
• Know what to expect when the body begins to actually heal. So-called healing reactions are more likely to be experienced where the body’s weaknesses are. It is possible to give a prognosis of what to expect and pitfalls not to fall into.
• JUST FEEL GREAT!

What Is Special About An Iris Analysis?

Iris Analysis is the only soft tissue analysis that can tell more about your body systems, conditions of the organs and tissues, toxic accumulations and weaknesses within.

This analysis is… non-invasive, simple, freely accessible, inexpensive, and easily understood.

The Iris Analysis covers information about your health such as the body’s condition, areas of strength and weakness, accumulation of toxins, and most importantly where to focus the healing process.

Summary:

• non-invasive,
• simple,
• freely accessible method,
• inexpensive,
• it can be learned by everyone who is interested in.

The Iris Analysis includes information about your health such as

1. body condition.
2. areas of strength and weakness.
3. accumulations of toxins.
4. where to focus the healing process.
5. possible options where stronger healing events may occur.

It is possible with the help of the Iris Analysis to determine the body’s strengths, weaknesses, and level of toxicity.

What Does An Iris Analysis Show?

It can reveal what is going on in your whole body such as the location of accumulations and congestions as well as any blockages of liquids or electricity (nervous system) flow in your body.

Fortunately, your body speaks its own language, which we usually call “symptoms”. But before symptoms manifest, the body sends warning signals that can be felt as pain, heat, heaviness, pressure, impairments, swelling, stiffness and so on.

But there is another way that the body speaks to us, through signs that are registered as certain forms and shapes also in the iris of the eye.

When we know how to interpret the forms and shapes in the iris, we can get enough valuable information to stop what is causing imbalance and even reverse that imbalance.

The iris analysis shows what’s going on in the complete body and where to start to improve flow in your system. When you get an iris analysis, I also give you a professional recommendation of what to do next to reach your best health.

Summary:

• Strengths and weaknesses of tissue which is influenced from genetics, inflammation (acidosis) or toxicity
• Possibly damaged tissue
• Areas of congested material, such as chemicals and toxins and where they tend to migrate and settle in the body.
• Glandular weaknesses
• – “window” into the body’s state of health
• Genetic predispositions

• “Strengthen your cellular weaknesses and clean up the cells. This will launch an increase of vitality, empowerment, and a state of health beyond anything you can imagine. SYSTEMICALLY! “

What Does An Iris Analysis Not Show?

• It is not a diagnostic tool to determine disease conditions
• The iris can not identify the gender of a person
• Does not confirm the presences of bacteria, fungi or parasites nor their exact location, gallstones, liver stones, or kidney stones
• Life span,
• Time of death
• Pregnancy as it is a normal and healthy bodily process
• Changes reflected during operations when performed under anesthesia (nerve impulses are short circuited)
• Abnormalities such as abnormal locations of organs or tissues in the body are not reflected in the iris
