1. EC: Yes, we have the body and those conditions as affect same, [514]. Now, as we find, there are SPECIFIC conditions as cause the greater disorder in the physical forces of this body. These have to do with centers that have become so impoverished, through pressure in the nervous system, as to deaden portions of functioning system as related to those glands as make for distribution of those assimilated forces in the glands of that portion of the body as AFFECT the central organism; so that we have a DEADENED area. Then, the EFFECTS as this creates in the system are more OFTEN termed, or determined by others, to be causes when THIS is the seat or cause of condition, as WE find. This effect, as we find, reduces the blood supply as related to the replenishing or resuscitating forces of the body, making also an unequal balance in the white blood, as WELL as red, making for subnormal temperatures at times; again we find an ABNORMAL temperature; again we find the effect is as of nausea in the stomach and the digestive system; AGAIN we find the reflexes, too, become those of the effects to the eliminating system; while apparently digestion at TIMES takes place normally, the distributing of that as is assimilated becomes that which makes for the weakened conditions, the dull headaches, the tendencies for an increase of the phlegm, or that in the pulmonary system as of phlegm, too much secretions, the system attempting to take care, or create that that would overcome the disorder; the center from which this radiation appears, as we find, being in the 8th and 9th dorsal area, and will be found that this will be sore to the touch. When first this is treated, it wouldn't appear so much - but with manipulations that would draw the nerve energy and blood supply to supply this area from which there are the radial reflexes and reactions, this will occur. During such periods we would add an exterior application, which would be composed of this:

2. We would take at least three folds of flannel, see - wet or moisten same thoroughly in THIS as combined together: Cinnamon water, with particles of cinnamon in same,...............1/2 ounce, Camphorated Oil....................1/2 ounce, Tincture Lobelia...................1/2 ounce, Tincture of Myrrh..................1/2 ounce. Now do not apply heat of too great a strength, but place this over the area just below the rib and over the lower portion of the stomach and upper portion of the liver area - see? This would be between the right side and the umbilicus plexus. This we would allow to remain until it has REDDENED the skin perceptibly and relieved the area.
3. We would also have those manipulations. These will necessarily begin with an easy application for the first four to six treatments, THEN the ADJUSTMENTS may be made along the WHOLE of the cerebrospinal system, but PREFERABLY in that area between the 11th and 12th dorsal to the 6th and 7th dorsal - THAT area.
4. As to the diet, these will of necessity be those that are easily assimilated, as would be those of the citrus fruits of morning - these may be altered with stewed fruits, fresh fruits or the like, but DO NOT combine same.
5. In the noon or lunch meals we would have those of the junket, or of chilled soups, or of such natures, with the Graham or browned white bread.
6. In the evenings we would have rather those of the vegetables as were WELL cooked.
7. This, as we find, may produce - for the first portion of same - an irritation of those disorders as appear in the exterior circulation, as in the form of the rash - but these, with the disturbances REMOVED, will bring about a nearer NORMAL condition for this body, [514]. Ready for questions.
8. (Q) How often should the osteopathic treatments be given? (A) At least every other day, but do not make adjustments until six or eight treatments have been given - see? When the pain is severe, or the applications to the exterior portion - these would only be made once a day, or once every other day, dependent upon how severe the disorder becomes in this liver and the LACTEAL ducts area. See, the condition is one of the ducts or glands has become deadened by the impingement of a nerve impulse in the 8th and 9th dorsal area. The REST of the conditions in the circulation, heart's action, pulsation, nervousness, weakness,
514-1 Page 3
debilitation, loss of appetite - these do not all occur at once, but they do occur in their regular periods - are FROM the condition, as the condition in the intestinal tract, etc.
9. (Q) Has the climate had anything to do with this condition? (A) Hardly! Rather the injury that was had some years ago, when it got a good bump from somebody's elbow!
10. (Q) Any other suggestions? (A) Let's do these, and then we will have some more!
11. That is all the questions.
12. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " File
