To anyone who reads my page and my very inconsistent postings, I wanted to share this because it shows the job of the ilea cocal valve and the appendix in our immune systems, as well as potty habits. It also shows relationships among various modalities in healing arts and sciences. Stay healthy. Practice wellness.

En lille tur gennem 2 vigtige områder i den opadgående del af tyktarmen 😊
Ileocecal klappen eller IC klappen er en lukkemuskel, der er placeret i overgangen mellem tyndtarmen og tyktarmen. Den er en af de tre lukkemuskler, der er i tarmsystemet. IC klappens funktion er at åbne og lukke, når føden skal passere fra tyndtarmen til tyktarmen. Den skal ligeledes sikre at indholdet i tyktarmen ikke løber tilbage og ind i tyndtarmen. Traditionelt kan den behandles ved diverse maveproblemer – herunder forstoppelse, diarre og oppustethed. IC klappen findes i højre side foran Psoas og denne beliggenhed gør at problemer i den ene, kan smitte af på den anden.
IC klappen er via det autonome nervesystem forbundet med rygsøjlen midt og desuden øverst under kraniekanten.
Osteopater behandler derfor ofte IC klappen i forbindelse med nakkesmerter, rygsmerter, lyske og hofteproblemer. Kinesiologer behandler den ved eksempelvis migræner, hovedpiner, smerter i skuldre, frossen skulder, øresusen, svimmelhed, binyrestress, bihulebetændelse og træthed. Måske skulle vi også anvende behandling af området, ved de samme lidelser.
En smule nedenfor IC klappen finder vi Appendix – blindtarmen, det lille vedhæng. I mange år anset som et område uden funktion. Men som sædvanlig er der en mening med alt i kroppen. Nu ved man at det tilsyneladende synes at fungere som et reservoir for gode tarmbakterier og at at Appendix indeholder lymfoidt væv som blandt andet hjælper med modningen af B-lymfocytter og at det dermed er en del af kroppens immunforsvar.
A small walk through 2 important areas in the colon 😊
The ileocecal valve is a sphincter located in the transition between the small intestine and the large intestine. It is one of the three sphincters in the intestinal system. The function is to open and close when the food has to pass from the small intestine to the large intestine. It must also ensure that the contents of the colon do not run back and into the small intestine. Traditionally, it can be treated for various stomach problems - including constipation, diarrhea and bloating.
However, the transition between the two intestines is found in front of the Psoas on the right side - and problems in one can thus trigger problems in the other. This knowledge is utilized, among other things, by osteopaths.
The IC valve is connected to the spine in the middle and also at the top via the autonomic nervous system.
Osteopaths therefore often treat the IC valve in connection with neck pain, back pain, groin and hip problems. Kinesiologists treat it in the case of migraines, headaches, pain in the shoulders, frozen shoulder, dizziness, adrenal residue, sinusitis and fatigue. Maybe we should consider it as a part of the treatment to, when clients appear with such problems.
A little below the IC valve we find the Appendix. For many years considered an area without function. But as usual, there is a meaning to everything in the body. Now we know that it seems to act as a reservoir for good bacteria and that the Appendix contains lymphoid tissue which, among other things, helps with the maturation of B lymphocytes and that it is thus part of the body's immune system.
