Iridology is a science which studies the irises to determine the health of an individual. The iris is the most complex tissue of the body that meets the outside world. It is an extention of the brain via the optic nerve and is endowed with hundreds of thousands of nerve endings, blood vessels, and muscles. The iris is connected to every organ and tissue of the body by way of the nervous system. Everything going on inside the body is recorded in the iris, including conditions that haven't manisfested into symptoms yet.
Iridology can identify predispositions and tendencies to disease, weakness, imbalances, inflammation, and toxic accumulations in the body. As a result of the information from the irises, Randell can assist you in balancing the body, removing roadblocks to natural healing processes, and giving the tools the body needs for healing through herbs and natural supplements
According to Randell “I have been interested in herbal medicine for a very long time but never got a formal education in it until I saw my mother getting sicker and sicker while doing everything the doctors told her. She finally died after years of having no quality of life and I think she would have lived longer and with better quality of life if she had never taken a pharmaceutical drug. I decided to help as many people as I can to address their health problems the natural way.”
Randell has been practicing as an herbalist since 2001 and practicing as an iridologist since 2004. He received a Master Herbalist diploma from The American Herbal Institute and Iridology Diploma from The Kevala Centre. According to Randell one of the most difficult problems herbalists face is “The skepticism that is entrenched in so many people that have never tried iridology or herbal medicine and the influence they try to exert on family members that are getting great benefits from it.”
Randell believes that “True healing can only come from the tools provided by nature and that is all I use in my practice.” 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 such as Randell Carter.
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.
According to Randell “Their medicinal effects are because of the active constituents 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.
If you are currently seeing a specialist, primary care physician, or some other form of health practitioner, Randell Carter can help you form a cohesive health management plan using tools provided by nature.
