Illeocecal Valve

[Guest guest]

>>Just a quick question - who do you prove that your 'illeocecal valve' was

jammed? I just can not believe that you were able to pinpoint this as the

cause of your pain. And your opinion about eating roughage...how can these

events be connected? I think the jump in logic is questionable.<<

I have had trouble with this little valve myself. It is a valve that

is between the small and large intestine...under the right

circumstances, it is triggered to open to allow the contents

of the small intestine to enter the large. Under wrong

circumstances it will either stay closed or open. This can

be caused by a few things, inflammation or irritation, or

the nerve impulses that help in opening and closing may

be impaired, which can be corrected by a good chiropractic

adjustment. Generally, it is located to the right in from the

hipbone about two inches down from the belly-button line.

This is a general description of the location, but if you " feel "

around that general area, you may find a tender spot.

Whether open or closed, I would just gently massage.

There is also a massage point on the outside of the

right upper arm...run your fingers down from the

the shoulder 2-3 inches, if you find a tender spot,

massage it, it may help as well. It is best to be lying down

and relaxed. Warmth on the area helps as well.

You may also want to soothe the area taking Intestinal

Soothe, Slippery Elm, Golden Seal if intestinal infection

is suspect, Flora Force or other probiotic formula.

The first time it happened, my chiropractor at the time diagnosed it and

worked to reverse it. The 2nd time it happened, I knew what it was, but

again the chiro. worked on me. The 2nd time it happened was within an

hour or two of too quickly eating a very crunchy, huge amount of stir

fry--I'm sure I didn't chew it well enough. Here is a PDF that talks

about the problem. http://doctorhaas.com/pdf/ileocecalvalvesyndrome.pdf

YMMV.
