IRIDOLOGY
A BRIEF HISTORY OF IRIDOLOGY
Individual have studied the eye for thousand of years. Records show that iridology was practiced by the Greek physician Hippocrates and also in ancient china about 6000 years ago. Presently iridology has developed in the United States, Europe and other parts of the earth.
IRIDOLOGY AN ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE
Iridology in alternative medicine studies the iris (the colored part of the eye) to understand the overall health patterns of the body. Iridology also attempts to identify inherited strengths, weaknesses and general illness patterns rather than to name specific disease.
Physicians who practice iridology are called iridologist. In there practice they look for tendencies towards inflammation, build up of toxins and the endocrine system.
Iridologists believe that iridology is a rapid safe and painless assessment tool to be used in conjunct with other traditional or alternative methods of diagnosis and treatment.
Iridology use microscope, special photography equipment, magnifying glass, flash light structure appearance and irregular lines. Iridology can also be used to predict a post traumatic stress or disorientation of patients as well as to examine the vitals of a patient.
Iridology is a highly accurate diagnostic tool used to examine the body to know if a medical doctor will be required for further treatment. Iridologists are also known to be professionals in other fields of alternative medicines.
IRIS CHART
The iris chart helps to show the link between the iris and specific parts of the body. The iridologist than records the pattern in the eye to a point than recommends preventive or supportive health practices or further consultation with another specialist.
Finally iridology is very painless and safe. It could make an individual have more knowledge about his or her body an individual could know the state of his or her metabolism the procedure could also be used to show if a patient is genetically predisposed to diseases like cancer.

CHIROPRACTIC MEDICINE
Chiropractic medicine is based on the theory that our nervous system is the key to maintaining homeostasis (the tendency of biological systems of internal equilibrium) or a healthy balance in our body.
Chiropractors believe that the human body is susceptible to disease when the internal balance is disrupted by vertebra misalignment or of other joints and muscles that disturb the proper functioning of the nervous system due to tissue injury.
Chiropractors primarily treat patients with conditions such as back pain, neck pain and headaches. This is because the procedure focuses on the nervous system, the circulatory system, and a patients nutrition, exercise and other life style choices, chiropractic also examines the combined effect of the factors on a patients overall health and the prevention of disease.
Chiropractic medicine adheres to the belief that diagnosis and treat of ailments in the musculoskeletal system will have a positive holistic effect on a person’s overall health.
A BRIEF HISTORY OF CHIRORACTIC MEDICINE
Spinal, muscle, tissue manipulation has being practiced since the beginning of time; this could be seen in ancient Egyptian, Indian, Babylonian, Japanese, Chinese Syrian, Tibetan, papyrus records. However, Chinese records which date from about 2700 B.C provide one of the earlier written references to spinal manipulation. The Greeks also had records of chiropractic medicine which dated back to at least 1500 B.C.
And in the last 100 years Daniel David palmer was the first to perform chiropractic alternative health medicine in 1895 on a patient who had become deaf about 17 years earlier after he felt some thing give, in his back after D.D. Palmer examine the back and gave a crude adjustment in what he believed was a misplaced vertebra in the upper spine. The patient then observes that his hearing improved.
D.D Palmer continued to explore the relationship between joint dysfunction. How it affects the nervous system, and the impact of both human health. And in 1897 he founded the palmer school of chiropractic alternative health practice in Daven port iowa.
His son B.J Palmer later pioneered the expansion and popularization of his father legacy through out his life. D.D Palmers chiropractic medicine has being a subject of much controversy in the orthodox medical society.
