Our Mission
About Tori Vargas
Tori has spent the last 8 years studying the human body and the conditions that manifest as a result of poor health. Initially, she started studying traditional western medicine preparing to go to medical school but quickly realized that this system didn't bring true healing for people suffering.
In 2019, she experienced an adverse reaction from a pharmaceutical drug that got her swept up into the healthcare system receiving treatment via chemotherapy, blood transfusions, steroids and surgery.
Tori's healing journey has been focused on detoxification after so many extreme medical interventions. She healed herself of many chronic symptoms like acne, polycystic ovaries, hair loss, low platelets, amenorrhea, fungal imbalances, migraines, constipation, excessive thinness, and other pharmaceutical injuries.
This has led her to a path of detoxification and regeneration of the body.
Tori has found a deep purpose in healing herself using only natural methods and helping others find their own healing using the power of Earth's medicine. She hosts group detoxification programs for her online community (The Healing Blueprint) that empowers people to take their health into their own hands and develop autonomy from the western medical system.
Tori was born and raised in central Massachusetts, but has found herself soaking up the sun in Florida for two years now. She loves comedy shows, live music and dancing. She loves connection and is outgoing by nature yet requires deep solitude at times (in the field of iridology, this duality of personality is represented by the radii solaris seen in her iris).

The Herbal Pharmacy
Dr. Heidi Jarvis, DNM
We have the pleasure of working directly with Dr. Heidi Jarvis, owner of Earth Pharmaceuticals, to manufacture and package our therapeutic herbal formulations.
She has over 20 years of experience in natural medicine and holds a PhD in Natural Medicine, Naturopathy Diploma, Master Herbalist (MH), Master Iridologist (MIr), Clinical Aromatherapist (CA), Reiki Master, Flower Essence Practitioner, and Teacher.
In 2011, Hayley visited Heidi's home pharmacy and apothecary for the first time during an herbal medicine training immersion. Heidi was one of Hayley’s original Herbal Medicine teachers and is the source of where she learned to infuse herbal creams, blend herbal teas and create herbal formulations.
They formed an immediate teacher-student relationship and have maintained a friendship ever since. Hayley has been working directly with Heidi to source herbal powder and capsule formulations for her own students and clients.
As Tori and Hayley started to work together with clients, they realized the need for more ecological, economical, and aligned herbal formulas.
They had the idea to craft their own formulations and decided to work with Heidi and utilize her very pristine, certified herbal pharmacy and apothecary for the production of Iris Herbals.
