*Based on customer surveys. Recovery time is half that of doctor suggested recovery times for moderate to severe pulls and strains. What is the key to quick groin pull recovery?If you are like most athletes, you are familiar with icing as a recovery approach. You have an unlimited supply in your freezer, it is all natural, and it can help limit swelling. If ice worked really well, who would need to look further? Aspirin and other anti-inflammatories are also an option, but making them a steady part of your diet may not be too appetizing. So what is the key to recovery? The number one thing your groin needs is proper circulation. With good circulation, your body can do what it does best - heal.
Release tension. Restore circulation. When you pull your groin, what happens? The muscle fibers tear and in the process, blood vessels sustain damage. The result is internal bleeding, swelling and a reduced ability to remove damaged tissue and waste. Toxins accumulate. This trauma from the muscle tear can essentially shut down the area. The muscle goes into spasm, and the because of the restricted circulation, the body takes a long time to recover. A treatment that releases the internal groin muscle tension and increases energy and blood circulation promotes fast, effective recovery. Don't frustrate yourself with common recovery methods. Use the Groin Pull Treatment Kit - you'll be surprised at how good you will feel a few days from now.
What does an injury cost you?Being injured and unable to compete is frustrating. You lose time training or playing and it affects your mood. If there is minimal improvement each day, you start to ask yourself "What is wrong with me?"
And the older you get, the longer healing seems to take. Many athletes choose to ignore the
pain and grit it out, but this can turn a basic injury into a chronic problem. If your groin never
fully recovers, you end up with scar tissue. Why is rest, ice, compression, and elevation (R.I.C.E.) so slow?A common initial treatment is compression and icing. One way to do this is apply a bag of crushed ice for 10 - 20 minutes at a time. On the positive side, ice limits swelling. However, ice accomplishes this by reducing circulation.
Ice reduces circulation Without good circulation, the groin can harbor damaged cells, scar tissue or other toxins. Since circulation is what your body ultimately needs to recover, ice can work against your body compared with methods that can increase circulation and minimize swelling. The Groin Pull Treatment Kit has the unique ability to both reduce swelling and promote circulation, working with the body's natural ability to heal. As a result, this completely natural product is extremely effective. Aspirin and other anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) - should you use them?On the positive side, aspirin and NSAIDs (Advil, Motrin and Aleve) initially help reduce inflammation, which is a good thing. After a while, the anti-inflammatory effects diminish and their main function is convincing your brain that your groin doesn't hurt so much. This has some value - no one likes pain. But masking the pain does not help your groin.Pain is your body's way of saying "Hey, pay attention to this, and be careful…" In addition, persistent use of NSAIDs has been linked to some fairly scary side effects.
Aspirin and NSAIDs mask the pain. Rather than mask the pain, address the problem with the Groin Pull Treatment Kit. There are no side effects because the herbal mixture is completely natural and safe.

Brad and Rob founded QiVantage (formerly Chi Herbal) to provide athletes with formulas and methods of preventing injuries, speeding recovery, and maintaining a healthy condition longer.

Founders Rob Lucier (left) and Brad Heilman (right)
“In the combined 30 years we have spent practicing and teaching Traditional Martial Arts, we have personally experienced and witnessed thousands of students realize the benefits of proper herbal formulas and movement. In hopes of reaching a broader audience, we began teaching Traditional Asian Health Methods seminars about five years ago. These seminars, which focused on teaching how to relieve stress through topical herbs and movement, reinforced our belief that people are looking for effective methods of self-care. At this same time, we also saw many athletes who, despite wanting to mentally and physically improve, were suffering from the pains and injuries of repetitive training. We founded QiVantage to provide time-proven herbal formulas for athlete self-care.
In October 2004, at the QiVantage booth at the New York Marathon Expo, an older Englishman hobbled over with his son along side. Now in his mid-seventies, the senior stated that he used to enjoy running, but had ruined both of his knees and had to stop. At this point in life, he had a son and grandchildren, but had lost much of his mobility and with it, quality of life. This affirmed our desire to bring QiVantage formulas to all athletes interested in improving their ability for the present, but also preserving their condition for the future.”

We understand from our customers that, when it comes to recovery, the most valuable asset is time. So we do not cut corners. We use only the highest quality ingredients, coupled with state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques and extremely well-researched recipes.
We do not use inferior quality ingredients to cut costs. Unlike the majority of herbal products available in the United States, which use chemically extracted concentrates or alcohol based tinctures, we start with only the finest whole herbs. Using pharmaceutical-grade processing techniques, the topical formulas are prepared according to recipes that have been tested and refined for generations by East Asian physicians and Traditional Martial Arts masters.
Some of the key ingredients include:
| Radix Achyranthis Bidentatae | ![]() |
| Radix Clematidis | ![]() |
| Radix Paeoniae Rubrae | ![]() |
| Radix Puerariae | ![]() |
| Radix Stephaniae Tetrandrae | ![]() |
First, the herbs used are quite safe. Arguably, you are experimenting on yourself much more by going to your local grocery store or pharmacy than by using a QiVantage formula. The formulas we use have been tested and refined for 30-40 generations. By contrast, most of the products available at your local pharmacy have not even been around for a decade, let alone a single generation.
Second, all herbs in the kit are topical. You apply them to your groin, you don't take them internally.
Third, all our products are made in the United States using the best processing equipment and techniques. We have treated thousands of athletes ranging in age from 6 to their 70s. We have never seen or heard of a negative side effect.
The big question is how severe is the injury? The more damage your body it trying to overcome, the more help you need.
Consider this: An injury such as a groin pull is like a traffic accident. Things are moving along smoothly on a roadway, and then bang! There’s an accident. All the sudden, things get jammed up. Now nothing is moving, you have debris from crashed vehicles, you have toxins accumulating from a bunch of cars standing still. You have a mess.
If it is a fender bender, you can get things moving again with a little help from a light tow truck. If it’s a ten car pile-up, you need a lot more help and a light tow truck isn’t going to do too much good. If it so happens that this stretch of highway is prone to accidents, you need to clean up the wreckage, then bring in a crew to fix the potholes and other issues that are creating a chronic accident situation.
Each kit will aid recovery, but the more severe the injury, the more kits we recommend using. Here are some guidelines.
