1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [464]; this we have had before.
2. As we find, while many conditions are much improved from that we have had at times, there is - especially at this season, and under the atmospheric pressures as well as the astrological aspects of same - a tendency for the condition in the cerebrospinal system to give the body trouble more; especially in the lumbar and sacral area, as has been indicated concerning the conditions in the system.
3. In the present, there should be as we find the special precautions taken as to the diets; in keeping away from fats or condiments. Thus we would find the reactions from same would be most beneficial.
4. For the immediate condition itself, we would - when there is the heaviness in these areas of the spine from taxation or from long activity in any activity during the day - apply or paint the areas with, a combination of three parts Laudanum to one part Aconite. Then apply over the same areas the heavy salt heat; that is, the heavy salt heated and put in pads or bags over the area which has been painted. This will not only rest the back but will take away the pain or the catch there.
5. Then, there should be occasionally the manipulations osteopathically or chiropractically given. And if these adjustments are given soon after the body has been relaxed with the hot packs as just indicated above, it will be found that the areas may be CORRECTED the better; removing these strains. And it will assist in aiding the circulation to remove the spots over portions of the system, that indicate the inactivity between the liver AND the kidneys.
6. But these done, as we find, will bring in the present the material and definite help or rest for the body.
7. The rub and the pack would be kept on sufficient length of time to let the body go to sleep, and then take off.

This, of course, given of an evening preferably.
8. Ready for questions.
9. (Q) What is the nature of the tie-up in back? (A) As has been so oft indicated, segments are pressing in such a manner as to produce almost a curve. Do these as has been indicated for the present, and we will find material relief. Rubs, and occasionally Baths in the nature of Fume Baths, would be most beneficial for the body; these taken once in ten days or two weeks, with thorough rubdown afterwards with olive oil or pine oil, and then a little alcohol rub, would be most beneficial especially from the waistline down, and this means down the whole of the limbs themselves, see? and rub away from the body! Do that.
