1. EC: On November 10th, 1883, this body [84] was hurt at the second lumbar which caused an abrasion, which since has given the body trouble all the time, and we have a condition where the body, in going about to adjust itself to carry normal circulation, rebuilding and nerve force, has set up a union within themselves around this portion of the body. Hence, we will never have a normal body again, that is normal in itself, though the body can be brought to better status than now.
2. The attributing forces to those that have been given to the body have set up seat through the digestive tract in the stomach, that is the things that have been taken to allay the pain - narcotics - they have produced in themselves that which cannot be alleviated save by the cravings. Hence two conditions in the body to combat with.
3. The treatment that has been given has been of assistance to this body but has not been able to take away this craving, neither able to alleviate conditions in the lower part of the body.
4. To go about the way to relieve these troubles, that is to assist the body to take care of itself, should be through the manipulation as it has been given, by Chiropractic instead of Osteopathic. Then we give the electrical treatment to the whole body more especially along the spine.
5. The electrical treatment by static machine [GD's note: Early short wave?] we have here, 14 amp, 130 cycles, 1956 vibrations to the cycle.
