How to Find Imbalances Using Iridology

Iridoloogy is a form of alternative medicine that can find imbalances in the body by examining the iris of the eye. Iridology is used to ascertain general problems rather than diagnose specific conditions. It can be used to find imbalances in all organs of the body, including the heart, lungs, brain and spine. Follow these steps to find out how.

Things You'll Need

• Iridoscope
• Computer with Internet access
• Iridology chart
• Iridology camera
• Certified Iridology Practitioner

Instructions

Find Imbalances With an Iridology Examination

1. Magnify the iris for examination using an iridoscope.

2. Take a picture of the iris using an iridology camera. The best ones are digital. You can upload the iris picture onto a computer screen immediately for faster results.

3. Look for yellow, brown or reddish markings on the iris. These may indicate imbalances in the metabolism or blood circulation.

4. Look for an Archus or a Sodium ring around the edge of the iris. It might appear as a small circle that's whitish-gray. It's indicative of a slow metabolism, which may be the result of high cholesterol. Depending on where on the iris your find either an Archus or a Sodium ring, the mark may indicate imbalances in the heart, brain or digestive system.

5. Compare the iris pictures with a professional iridology chart to determine which sectors of the iris the markings fall into and what problems the markings may indicate. Be sure to employ the help of a certified iridology practitioner in reading the chart and drawing conclusions.

6. Use the results of the iridology examination to seek medical help when appropriate. If your reading reveals serious imbalances, a visit to your physician is in order.

Tips & Warnings

• Professional iridology equipment can be very expensive.

• In a pinch, a rudimentary iridoscope can be made out of a flashlight and a magnifying glass.

• A regular digital camera probably shouldn't be used in place of a professional iridology camera. A high-quality iridology camera ensures crisp, detailed pictures and enhanced sensitivity to light.

• Using iridology equipment and practicing iridology should only be attempted under the supervision of a certified iridology practitioner.

• For chronic pain, skin irritation, nausea or vomiting, acute anxiety or other serious symptoms, consult a medical doctor immediately.

• Before you start any alternative medical technique, be aware that many have not been scientifically evaluated. If you decide to try iridology, keep your doctor informed about the treatment you undertake.
