Ilio-cecal Valve Syndrome & Correction

The Ileo-cecal valve (AKA: IC Valve) is located between the small and large intestines. It is supposed to work like a 1-way valve, allowing waste to move from the small intestine into the large intestine, working the "waste" OUT of your body. In people who have IC Valve dysfunction, it acts more like a swing door allowing waste and toxins to regurgitate back into the small intestines which are heavily armed with blood vessels. What does that mean?? Well, the massive blood supply in the small intestines means more toxins are getting absorbed back into the blood stream, recirculated back through the liver ...and repeat. You end up with a viscious cycle of illness and toxemia (toxic blood)...AKA: chronic illness that no one can figure out.

IC Valve dysfunction can cause a wide variety of symptoms. Some common ones are morning headaches that fade as you wake up and move around, chest pain, heart fluttering, sudden low back pain, shoulder pain, dizziness, flu-like symptoms, pseudo bursitis, tinnitus, dark circles under the eyes, chronic pain syndromes, constipation, acne or other skin conditions, allergies, digestion problems, Candida overgrowth, psychological & emotional problems, weak immune system, and more. Also, those who have chronic or systemic Candidiasis that won't go away....this could be a culprit! The constant recirculating toxins and BAD microorganisms in the body wear out our body's organs that are supposed to filter waste out of the blood on a daily basis, namely the liver, spleen, and kidneys. On top of all this, our brain and mental health is affected because our gut has EVERYTHING to do with brain, neurological and psychological function. After all, our gut IS our "second brain", containing a concentration of nerves almost as dense as in the central nervous system! 

IC Valve dysfunction is sneaky, but can be easily detected by a holistic practitioner who is familiar with this, who utilizes muscle testing, does live blood cell analysis or who simply listens and looks at the body holistically. Furthermore, YOU CAN HELP YOURSELF FROM HOME!!  Check it out!!!

Do all of the items listed 2x/day for 2-3 weeks:

RUB = firm, irritating pressure: back and forth pattern - about 5 seconds
MASSAGE = moderate pressure; rotary pattern with your fingertips - about 5 seconds
​

1. RUB the BASE of the right side of your neck.
2. RUB the inside of the right upper arm, start a few inches below armpit and rub up and down toward the elbow.
3. RUB the outside of the right thigh: above the knee, almost all the way up the thigh (the IT Band), and below the knee, about halfway down the outside of the lower leg. 
4. RUB the right, front side of the pelvis (just inside the hip bone).
5. MASSAGE inside the right leg, a couple inches above ankle bone (feel for the tender spot)
6. Go 1 inch to the right of the navel & 1 inch down. Pinch 2 fingers-worth of skin & TUG away from your body a few times, slowly. 
7. Measure halfway between your front, right hip bone and navel...THAT'S YOUR IC VALVE!! (see photo above) PRESS with your left fingertips over your right fingertips (broad contact) & PULL UP toward the left shoulder. Hold for 5 seconds. Repeat 3x. 
8. Step on a golf or tennis ball with your right foot and apply direct pressure to the area indicated in the foot photo above. Apply constant, uncomfortable pressure for 15seconds then rest a few seconds. Do 3x total. Do not over-do this as you could over-stimulate this area and prevent healing. 
9. Lie face-down with a tennis ball placed under your IC Valve for 10min (see #7 for location)
