First Aid Resources
WoundSeal® Powder is composed of a hydrophilic, or water-loving, polymer and potassium ferrate.
When the powder is poured onto a bleeding wound, the hydrophilic polymer instantly dehydrates the blood by absorbing only the plasma or liquid portion of the blood stacking the blood solids beneath the powder.
Simultaneously, the potassium ferrate dissolves, releasing iron that agglomerates (binds together) the blood solids to create an occlusive seal.
As manual pressure is applied to the powder, the seal is pushed into contact with the wound.
The natural glue-like nature of drying blood adheres the seal to the wound and surrounding skin.
The occlusive seal, that has formed in seconds, stops further bleeding or oozing.
Blood solids continue to stack beneath the seal, strengthening it. The natural clotting process proceeds below the seal.

The Benefits of Ileocecal Valve Massage
Step One: Locate the IC Valve
Draw a line from the navel to the right hip bone. Feel for the boney protuberance on the front of your pelvis. Note where the middle of that line is. Under this area is the IC valve.
Step Two: Evaluate the IC Valve
Gently but firmly press into the abdomen in this area looking for tenderness. Often you will feel a tender area or even a hard nodule under your
fingers. Sometimes it will feel like a hard but tender golf ball. This tension must be massaged out in order for this valve to function. In the case
of SIBO — the valve is likely stuck open.
Step Three:
A. Massaging a stuck-open IC valve
An open valve will predispose the body to intestinal overgrowth, loose stools and undigested food, along with the general symptoms
mentioned earlier.
Massage the area in a firm clockwise circular motion. Extend the upward circular motion as if you were zipping up a zipper. The circular motion
is more of an oval with the emphasis on pulling the tissue in an upwards direction. I am a big fan of using some form of vibrating massage tool for this in a similar way – extending the upward zipping up of the IC valve for best results. In addition, the entire lower abdomen can benefit from a visceral massage with a vibrating massage tool.
B. Massaging a stuck-closed IC valve
A closed valve can cause occasional constipation, a hard, inconsistent stool, gas and bloating, and abdominal discomfort.
Massage the area in counter-clockwise circular motion with an emphasis in the downward motion, as if to un-zip a zipper and open the IC valve.
Step Four: Frequency
Repeat this technique twice a day for 2 minutes and before each meal until the soreness and tenderness in the IC valve area disappears. The area should be soft, supple and non-tender.
