Welcome to Randell Carter Iridology
Herbal Medicine, sometimes referred to as Herbalism, Phytotherapy, or Botanical Medicine, is the use of herbs for their therapeutic or medicinal value. Herbs have been used since ancient times to treat disease and maintain health but today herbalists have much more training and clinical knowledge than ever before. Herbal Medicine can be an extremely effective way to resolve
acute or chronic problems if a qualified herbalist is consulted.
For centuries, herbs have been the
principal if not the only medicines used in many countries.
Even herbs we use today for seasonings in cooking were
originally used as medicines. The use of herbs decreased after the conventional medical systems started using synthetic chemicals for medicine. Many people have realized that the synthetic drugs cause more problems than they help, so the use of herbs for medicine has made a dramatic comeback. Over the centuries the herbs used by the ancient people led to the modern
range of medicines being available to physicians. We have learned from these
early trials that herbs contain complex chemical structures. Their medicinal
effects are because of the active constituent or secondary plant products
such as alkaloids, mucilage, bitters, glycosides, essential oils, etc. Herb
combinations are used widely as the understanding of the body systems has
evolved. Herbs are used in many different ways and can be ingested or
applied to the body directly or indirectly. The holistic approach consider
diet, lifestyle, temperament, external influences and aims to recreate the
perfect balance and helps the body to heal itself.
Iridology
is the scientific practice which involves correlating the markings
and patterns of the iris to reflex manifestations and bodily malfunctions
among the many organs of the body. By studying the eye, iridologists
can reveal a patient's overall degree of health, as well as his
or her apparent inherent weaknesses. In this alternative medicine
technique, the eye is perceived as the gateway to the body whereby
its condition reflects the overall condition of the patient. Accurate analysis of iris structure and pigmentation provides
information about you that is hard to find through
other methods. This information is so valuable that Iridology deserves
to become a widely practiced assessment tool in both the physical and
psychological health fields.
