Iridology

Iridology is the science of analyzing the delicate structures of the iris (colored part) of the eye.  The iris is an extension of the brain with hundreds of thousands of nerve endings and other tissues.  These nerve endings are connected to every organ and tissue of the body by way of the brain and nervous system.  The nerve fibers of the iris respond to changes in tissues in a specific areas of the body.  By analyzing the iris the practitioner is able to assess inflammation, body constitution, inherent weaknesses, levels of health and the different stages of degeneration or healing.  With iridology, we have a simple, painless, and non-invasive way of looking into the body.
