Foreword
Naturopathic medicine in Spain has experienced great technical and academic
progress in recent times, which can be observed by the establishment of
prestigious educational institutions devoted to it, like the Heilpraktiker Institut in
Barcelona. For the past few decades these institutes have been teaching,
researching, and publishing information in prominent journals and high-quality
books, like this text on iridology by Professor Gustau Pau, which includes
historical background, numerous clinical reports, and a renewed vision of this
diagnostic naturopathic discipline, highlighting its use as a valuable tool for
evaluating patients.
Iridology offers clinical physicians a quick method for diagnosis and the
identification of appropriate treatments, and it works well as a complement to
other diagnostic techniques and laboratory procedures that take more time to
provide information.
Professor Pau masterfully shares his experience with identifying signs in the
iris and offers expert insight into their meaning and their connection to
pathological processes, detoxification, and tissue repair, all of which can be
documented throughout the treatment process with systematic analysis and
records of the iris. Thus, iridology can be a fundamental tool for evaluating the
efficiency of the healing process. Healing, as we understand it, is the path of
return to a normal biological state, which has been the most important demand
naturopathy has made of its physicians and therapists throughout history, since
the time of Hippocratic medicine.
Iridology has been and remains the most valuable technique for verifying
this healing process.
