1. GC: You will have before you the body of [116], ..., Ill., and the information which was given through these sources on the 23rd of March, 1931 - which is apparently not clear to her son, [...], who is desirous of having it clarified as regarding how the condition affects heart, lungs, stomach, intestines, urinary tract, brain, spinal cord and spine. Also in reference to pressure, does this refer to pressure on the entire fluid sac in the spine or to impingement of nerves in the spinal column? What is meant by growth? What is meant by lack of balance? You will answer any other questions.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body and those conditions that surround same; also the information that has been given concerning same.
3. In the clarification for those that seek to administer those things that would bring relief for this body, [116] - these are the conditions as we find them, and as to HOW they affect the various portions of the system:
4. There has existed for some time back those pressures in the cerebrospinal nervous system, or - to be specific, as given - in the upper dorsal and throughout the cervical region - impingements in the plexus and centers from cerebrospinal nerve system. THROUGH the ganglia the pressures exist.
5. These pressures have made for those improper INCENTIVES to FUNCTIONING in the organs they affect, which - in the various cycles of activity - have made for a change in the PULSATIONS in the heart's activity, especially when there comes periods of depressions - which are produced as much by the pressures in the sympathetic system, aided and abetted by the condition of the functioning organs produces a distress to the MENTAL forces of the body; that is, not as mental ABERRATIONS (as may be termed), nor of other than discouragement, lack of interest in, or the ABUSED interest - as it were - in individuals or conditions. These, as of conditions referred to in the mental forces of body. This makes for smothering spells, pains in head, to the base of
116-2 Page 2
brain, to the sides of the head, through the CENTRAL nervous system, from the pressures existent in the 3rd and 4th dorsal area, that make for the secondary cardiac reflexes - NO organic heart disorder.
6. In these reflex actions that have been seen at times, the effect to the stomach or digestive area has been to produce the lack of those necessary forces to be created in system, making for the proper distribution of those elements in the blood supply that make for resuscitation forces of the proper nature throughout the system; affecting directly those of the lacteals and THEIR functioning. Here has been produced an engorgement which segregates or separates itself at times, that makes for a feeling in the area of the liver and just below - and in the intestinal system - of a tickling or tingling sensation, making for depressions through the system in this area. With the pressure experienced there, and those conditions reflexly to the lumbar area, makes for the disorder in the pressures or in the FUNCTIONING of the urinary canal - a BLADDER disorder, rather than a kidney disorder; for with the reflexes through the hepatic circulation, this changes as to produce sometimes a period of suppressed urine reaction, again very OFTEN and of small quantity. The natural result is to produce some INFLAMMATION, or TENDENCY towards that condition. This is the condition referred to as being of growths, or natures that TEND to be in this manner. The irritations produced by these effects makes for DISORDERS through the intestinal system. These are not of ulcerations, tumors, nor of cancerous nature - AS YET; these MIGHT become so, with the deteriorating forces of the system and these pressures allowed to remain in system.
7. In the effects that are produced from these conditions, we find as to how they affect the system as a GENERAL. Then the unbalancing condition is produced in this disorder as related to the suppression in the cerebrospinal system and its reflex actions to the organs, as has been indicated.
8. In meeting the needs of the conditions, as has been suggested, these should be under the supervision of one who may make those corrections necessary osteopathically in the cerebrospinal nervous system, CAPABLE - when NECESSARY - to give those sedatives that would be ALLAYING to the system when necessary under the pain of setting the adjustments correctly IN the system, and of RELIEVING the pressures in the areas and regions that HAVE been indicated. As to what these properties should consist of, that would depend upon the CORRECTIONS themselves, and as to HOW these react IN the system; as to whether proper drainages are set up from the
116-2 Page 3
lung area, or whether these affect the system directly, as to the nausea, the headaches, or the activities of the hepatic circulation. These may be BEST given, then, under the supervision of the one MAKING those corrections. As to what these would be, they would be in the nature that would affect DIRECTLY the organs so incensed BY the corrections as to be abnormal in their functioning, whether of the circulatory system, the pressures to the head, or to those activities of the eliminations as affected by those of the hepatic circulation themselves; this circulation meaning those of the INTESTINAL area combined with those of both the liver and the kidneys - see?
9. In the applications, it will be found that with the corrections those ELECTRICAL forces that make for a superficial activity in the form of vibratory forces - as from the ultra-violet - will aid most in the relieving of the pressures in the system - see?
10. It will be found, too, that the use of the Activated Ash will be HELPFUL - but THIS, as we find, would come LATER, with the CLARIFYING of the system, so that the release of the properties IN system as affected by the USE of the ash WITH the rays from the electrical forces may be aided in the PROPER manner, or activated in the proper directions. Ready for questions.
11. (Q) How long should they continue this treatment before beginning the ash? (A) When the drainages are well set up, and there is relief from the pressures that cause this disorder in the system. This SHOULD be accomplished, will the body RESPOND PROPERLY, in at least three to four weeks - see? though the condition as RELIEF for the body should be effected much sooner.
12. We are through for the present. Copy to Son " " [257] " " File
