1. EC: Yes, we have the body, Mrs. [219]. Now, we find there are those conditions as cause distress in the physical forces of the body. These, being of the specific nature, do not affect the whole system in a manner as yet to cause the distresses in a general manner, as often such conditions do; for the body has vitality, and a well balanced system as respecting coagulation and distribution. But the body is being hindered by specific conditions existent, and by there being such irritation in those portions of the system where the distresses have ALREADY exhibited themselves to such an extent as to cause or require the removal of a portion of the system. Yet this operation did not remove the cause. Hence the beginning of the re-occurrence of the condition as to produce plethora in portion of the system, to the extent as to cause not only uneasiness, but distress and pressure on the organs of the pelvis in such a manner as to bring distresses to the organs in their functioning at times.

2. Now, to remove the condition again by operation would not, without proper corrections, assist the body in gaining its full or nominal, or normal equilibrium, BUT only WEAKEN the system to where the conditions would be carried through the system in such a manner as to produce, with the blood and nerve supply, a more detrimental condition; yet the pressure, the engorgements, must be removed. How would these then, under the existent conditions, be met? While the absorption of same will require more time, yet, as given, the conditions existent in the vital forces in the heart's action, in the functioning of the blood supply, in the equilibrium as is already established in system, that as will produce quick coagulation in the system is apparent. Coagulation, then, in the greater sense meaning where tissue has been already inflamed and becomes then as a detrimental condition, the system may be so manipulated, and the proper

219-1 Page 2

vibrations set up in same, that these may be thrown off through those channels wherein ELIMINATIONS will take care OF the condition; yet require a greater period of time, but KEEPING the system in the nearer normal balance throughout the whole condition.

3. Applying, then, those of the manipulations [osteopathically] through the lumbar, sacral and lower dorsal region, so as to remove the pressure as is produced in the system. Also applying those activities of the ultra-Violet ray, so that the blood supply - as these excesses are thrown into the system - may so distribute and eliminate same in a way and manner as to keep the system in a normal balance; keeping in the body those of properties as will prevent the further inroads of inflammation in system, as may be done by the proper diet, as well as those of medicinal properties that keep the system cleansed. Using, then, occasionally, enemas of the nature that will supply food value, or those of stimulant nature, that the system itself may keep equally divided in same.

4. Do this, in this manner, and applying those packs that will aid the system in relief from pain. Those should be distribution between that of the saturated solution of Epsom Salts and those of the combination of the Oil of Sassafras and Oil of the Castor bean - equal parts; alternating such packs, across the abdomen and across the lower portion of the cerebrospinal system.

5. Do these under the direction of one supplying the manipulation and the ultra-Violet ray, and we will find in eight to ten weeks the condition near to normal. Ready for questions.

6. (Q) After this treatment, will the body require an operation? (A) This APPLIED, as we have given - the body, as has already been given, is in that condition where it will respond to these applications, doing away - and much BETTER for the body THAN an operation. An operation would be DETRIMENTAL to the condition and to the body, under the present existent forces. In other words, the body, through an operation - at the present status of the condition - would be practically an invalid for years afterward, if EVER nominal, or normal; while through that absorption there will be eliminated from the system the CAUSE of the RETURN of these conditions; hence bringing the body to the near NORMAL activity in this physical experience.

7. (Q) Are the packs to be hot? (A) Packs to be hot, to relieve the stress. Not that these are to bring inflammation by the extra heat created, but by the assimilating of the conditions, and keeping in the

219-1 Page 3

system those properties as the eliminants that prevent irritation, and the antiseptics throughout the system in this way and manner, and we will find the body, [219], being brought near to a perfectly normal condition - six to ten weeks.

8. (Q) What should be used in the enemas? (A) Olive oil.

9. (Q) Should the manipulations be given osteopathically? (A) NECESSARILY osteopathically, for these must be in accord with the conditions, relieving distress, turning the activity of the NON-active nerve centers through those of their proper CHANNELS; that eliminations may be properly set up, removing the stresses through the organs themselves, see? so that their throw-off, their discharge, are of a nominal nature. The antiseptics and solutions as will be taken internally will be those of the elm water - honeyida [Hunyadi] water occasionally. Those of the elm with the Juniper, for the kidneys in their activity, and the pressure as is produced there from the conditions existing in pelvis; also from the cleansing of the organs or through the vagina itself, to prevent irritations arising in the system; or set up eliminations osteopathically, applying to the system those as will assist in the absorbing of the conditions existent, correcting the condition as PRODUCING same, and we will find - as we have given - these conditions coming for this body. DO that.

10. (Q) How often should the manipulations be given? (A) In the beginning, gently - these should be given at least once each day, gently. The ultra-Violet ray would be, in the beginning, every third or fourth day. The douches and the enemas according to the CONDITIONS as are created in the system by the application OF those properties from the ultra -Violet ray and the manipulations, as they set up - as the body RESPONDS TO these applications, these may be alternated to meet the needs, more often or deeper.

11. (Q) Any specific diet? (A) That only as is outlined to keep the proper eliminations through the system.

12. (Q) Any medicinal properties as eliminants? (A) Only those as we have outlined. See, honeyida [Hunyadi] water is an eliminant - elm water is an eliminant - an eliminant in a manner in which the system is prevented from creating inflammation; as the functioning of the system throws off refuses into the body, necessary for the blood supply to be recuperated so that the coagulation in tissue takes place, as is necessary to heal and eliminate.

Do as we have given. Certainly there should be the physical examinations. There should be the local treatments for these conditions, as these come - using the antiseptics for same, but these under the care of one giving the manipulations, and the medicinal properties will find their proper relations one to another. We are through for the present. Copy to Cayce Hospital " " Self and mother, Mrs. [5654]
