Kinesiology and the Ileocecal Valve (ICV)
I can test to see if your ICV is involved in health issues and if so, it can rebalanced. It is the powerhouse of the digestive system and many health issues can be resolved by working this valve.
What is the ICV
The Ileocecal Valve (ICV) is found in the digestive tract between the small intestines and the large intestines. It is positioned in the lower right side of the abdomen near the appendix. The main function of the ICV is to periodically open and close to let food move through the digestive tract. If the ICV malfunctions it can have a major effect on health and wellbeing.
What can cause the ICV to malfunction?
There are many reasons for the ICV to malfunction, therefore in Kinesiology, I look at the client as a whole to uncover and balance the root cause rather than simply only treating the symptoms. Below are the 4 main areas.
– Relentless stress, negative emotions/thoughts, upset and arguments, fears, phobias, pressures and anxieties. They all have a psychosomatic effect on the body. The psyche (mind) directly affects the body (soma). Similarly, we can also relate to a “Gut reaction” when emotions are involved. Kinesiology can help negative feelings and emotions through a technique called ‘Emotional Stress Release’
– The digestion of food. Too much raw food, roughage like bran, alcohol in excess, caffeinated drinks, crisps, nuts and even whole grains can cause the ICV to malfunction. Allergies, food sensitivities and a lack of stomach acid (often feels like too much acid with reflux) also can contribute to problems with the ICV.
– Feeling over-tired due to straining the structure of the muscles, bones and organs, or lack of exercise and over-exercising can therefore also upset the smooth functioning of the digestive system.
– The fourth, often neglected vital part of us is our life force. Phones, tablets, PC’s, and microwaves can cause negative energy excesses and deficiencies. Electro-magnetic pollution can affect our digestion.
