What is Iridology?Iridology – Irid = Iris, ology = study of, or the study of the
iris of the eye. It is a
gentle, non-invasive way of identifying inherited strengths and
weaknesses. Specific markings
and different coloration’s within the iris show areas of the body that
needs nutritional support. The
iris is also a map to help us understand the connection between mind and
body, relationship attractions, and genetic behavioral patterns that make
us who we are.
In the U.S., Dr. Bernard Jensen, Iridologist, nutritionist,
lecturer, leader in the field of Iridology (and grandfather of Jon
Jensen); has brought Iridology to the mainstream of holistic health with
it becoming more and more recognized as a tool in understanding areas of
inherited weakness in both humans and animals.
Presently, as in the past, many primary health care doctors have
used this form of analyses along with other diagnostic techniques to
facilitate a more complete understanding of their patient’s health care
needs. Iridology does not claim to identify and name diseases, but
works as a valuable guide in preventative medicine. “The iris of the eye is the most complex tissue of the body
meeting the outside world. It
is an extension of the brain, being incredibly endowed with hundreds of
thousands of nerve endings, microscopic blood vessels, muscle and other
tissues. The iris is connected to every organ and tissue of the body by way
of the brain and nervous system. The
nerve fibers receive their impulses by way of their optic nerve, optic
thalami and spinal cord. They
are formed embyologically from mesoderm and neuroectoderm tissues.
Both sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems are present in
the iris. Nerve fibers in the
iris respond to changes in the body tissues by manifesting a reflex
physiology that corresponds to specific tissue changes and locations. In this way, Nature has provided us with a miniature television
screen showing the most remote portions of the body by way of nerve reflex
responses. We are discovering that the eye works two ways; not only does it enable
us to bring images of the outside world within, it also shows images of
what is within to the outside.”
Why Use Iridology?Since the dawn of the healing arts in ancient times, we have made great progress in our understanding of that complex organism we call the human body. Whether we are using our understanding properly is another question. Progress, it seems, is a mixed blessing. Along with advances in technology, we have pollution. Most of the food in this country is sprayed with chemical pesticides and grown in soil denatured by highly concentrated chemical fertilizers. When we consider these and other factors, we must realize that we live in an age in which it has become increasingly difficult to build and maintain an adequate level of health. In the health and medical fields, advances in both knowledge and technology have been so overwhelming that an age of specialization has been spawned. There are podiatrists, ophthalmologists, proctologists, chiropractors, osteopaths, homeopaths, nutritionists—we could go on and on. But, while specialization produces experts with a great deal of knowledge about one particular system or aspect of the human body; this creates a dilemma, since the human organism functions as a whole, unified, complex system in balance. When any part of the system suffers, the entire organism is adversely affected. What we need is a whole system of analysis and a whole system of treatment for the whole person. It is due to an awareness of this need that the concept and practice of holistic health has received its impetus. Practitioners in the healing arts and sciences throughout the world are re-examining their methodologies and priorities. Many in the field of the healing arts feel that we are on the verge of a revolution in the field of health and that natural healing methods will play a major role in the coming years. The great advantage of Iridology is that it lends itself handily to an immediate survey of the state of health in every part of a person’s body. The iris of the eye reveals tissue conditions everywhere in the body, indicating the areas in need of further investigation. Because of this, Iridology is an invaluable tool to primary health care professionals using the holistic approach. We must define Iridology as the science of analyzing reflex conditions in the iris corresponding to pathology in the body. The iris of the eve shows the changes that are going on in the body and reveals abnormal tissue conditions. Iridology’s greatest value is that of allowing the detection of chemical and physiological changes in the body long before the appearance of the particular set of symptoms which would be classified and named as a disease. Underlying all symptoms characteristic of known disease states are tissue changes in the body caused by chemical imbalance, toxic deposits, poor circulation, inherent weaknesses and so forth. To understand how dis-ease develops in the human body we must first understand what is going on in the organs, bloodstream, nervous system, circulatory system and glands to bring about the changes, which culminate in disease. Iridology provides a wealth of information about the vital processes and tissues of the body. —This information came directly from: Iridology; The Science and Practice in the Healing Arts;

Iridology Can and Cannot Do

Who
is Noted Iridologist Jon Jensen?
Jon Jensen is the grandson of
the late Dr. Bernard Jensen who is
generally regarded throughout North America as the forefather of
Iridology (for more information on Iridology click here).
Jon has had obvious advantages growing up with his grandfather
and living at The Hidden Valley Health Ranch where he was exposed daily
to the value of proper nutrition and Iridology. As Dr. Jensen’s young protégé, Jon filled many roles over the
years while learning personally from “the master” and he
participated in the many classes and projects run by his grandfather.
Jon’s experience includes working closely on special projects with Dr.
Jensen such as: doing the research for many of his books, helping to
pioneer a new way of iris analysis using the computer, assisting with
the many seminars and the materials needed for each. Jon has done
literally 1000’s of eye analyses, all while under Dr. Jensen’s
helpful and watchful eye. Jon’s knowledge and commitment was put to the test when he
offered to be at his grand-fathers side when Dr. Jensen became paralyzed
from the waist down. Over
the next year Jon became an integral part of his grandfathers plan to
begin walking again. It was
during this time that Jon truly became a believer in the absolute
importance of treating the whole person, body, mind and spirit in order
for a person to reach and maintain a level of optimum health. After his grandfather’s recovery, Jon shifted his attention to
filling in the few gaps that he knew existed in his knowledge base.
In recent years Jon has taken his substantial training to a new
level by completing classes and studies with some of the prominent
leaders in the fields of Rayid and European based Iridology.
Jon is highly trained in nutritional education and counseling and
he also holds the title of certified master hypno-therapist. Jon Jensen is available for consultations and speaking engagements in the field of Iridology throughout the United States and Canada. Please contact Jon at: j23jon@aol.com
