The
History
of Iridology
The
first documented evidence between the eyes and health is attributed to
a doctor by the name of Philippus Meyens in 1670.
Later
in the 1800s the popularity and promotion of iridology in Europe grew
like wildfire through Dr. Ignatz von Pedczely a Hungarian physician
who also used homeopathics in his practice.
The science and practice
of iridology has been developed and studied ever since.
Medical
doctors regularly use this practice in Europe as their initial
diagnostic technique.
In Russia, only medical doctors are taught
iridology. It is only in North America that iridology seems to be
primarily in the hands of the natural health practitioners. That's
probably because of the nature of iridology and its intimacy with
herbology and natural health modalities.
Our medical system theaches
how to diagnose and treat disease where as iridology teaches a person
how to live better to reach their wellness potential.
Dr
Bernard Jenson, D.C., N.D., Ph.D., known as the father of iridology in
the United States (and one of my greatest iridology and nutrition
teachers) brought iridology to the natural health world. He practiced,
wrote about, studied and taught its wondrous applications for over 60
years before his recent death in his 90s.
