When we look into the iris, are we catching a glimpse of the soul’s true expression?
What is Iridology?
What is Iridology?
Looking deeply into the colors and structure of your iris reveals your genetic blueprint revealing to you how your nervous system, immune system, and emotions are linked and shape your daily experience. These insights help you realign your body and unlock your greatest potential.

Discover How
Iridology invites you to see yourself more clearly. The patterns in your eyes highlight your inherent vitality, your resilience, and the subtle cues showing where balance can be restored.
It’s not about diagnosing illness, but about learning how your body and emotions work together.
What the Eyes reveals to you
Emotional Imprints
How our emotions shape our health — influencing hormones, organ function, thought patterns, and inner currents.
Areas of vulnerability
Which organs and systems are more sensitive to stress and where disease is most likely to manifest.
Nervous system patterns
How your nervous system reacts under stress — whether you move into fight-or-flight activation or slip into a freeze state.
Detoxification & circulation
Assessing if your body’s waste and fluid pathways are functioning optimally or showing signs of stagnation.
constitutional Strength
Understand how strong, adaptable, and resistant your body is to stress, disease, and aging.
Inherited patterns
Imprints of ancestral memory or personal experience that influence you on every dimension of health.
“Naturopathy honours every layer of health — physical, emotional, and energetic — and Iridology offers a map to navigate their deep connections.”
“Naturopathy honours every layer of health — physical, emotional, and energetic — and Iridology offers a map to navigate their deep connections.”
Through my five years of in-depth study in herbal medicine and naturopathy, I came to realise that human health cannot be understood through the physical body alone.
True restoration requires exploring the more subtle layers of life — energy shifts, thought patterns, and emotional imprints.
Iridology gave me a clear way to see these connections, helping me guide patients to recognise patterns and make changes that improve their health.
The Hazel/green iris
The Dark Brown iris
Lymphatic
Having a light blue to grey iris suggests strong detoxification potential, but also a tendency toward over-reactivity in the immune and lymphatic systems. People with blue eyes often have heightened sensitivity, which can make them more prone to allergies, respiratory issues, skin eruptions, or recurrent infections when the body is under stress.

The amber iris
Amber eyes, glowing with golden-yellow tones, are a rare constitution. They often point to metabolic processes with a particular sensitivity in the kidneys, as well as links to the liver and gallbladder. If this is you, you might have already experienced fluid retention, electrolyte imbalance, or reduced kidney clearance, which can manifest as fatigue, lower back discomfort, or skin imbalances. Supporting kidney vitality alongside gentle detoxification helps maintain balance and steady energy.

My Teacher
I had the privilege of training under Peter Jackson-Main, distinguished author and one of the foremost authorities on modern Iridology. His teaching revealed how the iris not only reflects constitutional strength and genetic patterns, but also the subtler dimensions of the psyche — our emotional imprints, resilience, and inner narrative. This holistic lens profoundly shaped my understanding of how to interact with my patients,
