Q&A Jana Brunclikova | Artist & Qualified Naturopath
Jana Brunclikova is a Sydney-based naturopath and artist. Born and raised in the Czech Republic, she lives in Bondi, loves life and frustrates surfers while swimming from north to south. Jana has spent the last seven years studying Health Science and trying to attain an Australian residency, financed from the money from her last exhibition. Photography has been a dear friend for the waiting time. The passion for art photography fits perfectly in between her passion for organic red wine and pencil illustrations. The final touch of her photography is due to a combination of digital, film photography and love for long exposures.

Iridology – first time I ever heard about it and looked it up. Does it really work?

Thanks guys, …the girl is not a model but a good friend of mine:D
Iridology is used as a preventative practice! the aim is to detect signs within the iris as early as possible. This can then assist in preventing possible health complications by pointing people in the right direction for necessary diagnostics and treatment. Iridology isn’t used as a diagnostic tool but as a form of guidance and insights that can be most useful!

Hi Jana,
What do you need to study to become a naturopath? Is it a hard field to get into?
