1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [631]; this we have had before.
2. As we find, conditions are somewhat on the improve. While there are periods when there are the reactions in the system from the effect of the poisons and the accumulations that have hindered, and do hinder, the locomotions - for there are tendencies for the accumulations and crystallizations of salts IN the system (that is, the salts of the system itself, you see), as to cause excruciating pains even at times to the body; in the knees, in the hands, in portions of the torso of the body - we would keep those eliminants not only for the activity of the alimentary canal, to assist in throwing off poisons, but throughout the body. The effects from constipation make for the disturbance to the whole circulation.
3. We would use more the enemas to make for the eliminations being near normal or regular, see? Use with same, especially in the last waters, the Alkalin Petrolagar - that will prevent irritating the mucous membranes of the alimentary canal.
4. And we would take internally each day, twice each day, Glyco-Thymoline; two or three drops in half a glass of water just before or just after the morning and evening meals. This is only an intestinal antiseptic.
5. But keep also the baths of the Epsom Salts - hot baths; these of a more specific nature, applied as packs of Epsom Salts - saturated solution - to the hands, to the joints.
6. And we will find that keeping the eliminations in these manners will aid in allowing the activities from the low electrical vibrations, carrying the Gold into the system, to become more and more effective with the glands.
7. We would continue to stimulate the glands from time to time with the Atomidine. We will find that if the body will
631-5 Page 2
be given Atomidine rubs, or taking larger doses of the Atomidine for one or two days before the Epsom Salts baths, it will come THROUGH the system - see? At the periods when the baths are to be taken, the Atomidine would be taken for the day or two days before and one day after - ten minims twice a day, see?
8. The diets, we find, are very good; provided there are kept the alkalins and the vegetables that make for the proper character of salts' activity through the system.
9. At times when there is cold or congestion, we would use small doses of the Fletcher's Castoria as an assistant for the digestive system - which will relieve headaches, pains, and make for sleeping better. When it is used, take half a teaspoonful every half hour until there are the full eliminations - even though more than one small-sized bottle may be required. Take Fletcher's, though; not other combinations.
10. These followed, as we find, will bring a much nearer normal condition for this body, [631].
11. We would find it preferable to keep the surroundings such that there is the sympathy with those things that may be applied for the benefits to the body; these are preferable to either a change in climatic conditions or in surroundings that would be in SOME respects more in keeping with the body's activities; for these will bring the greater and better results.
12. Ready for questions.
13. (Q) Am I following out all my treatments correctly? (A) These are changed somewhat here. Follow THESE correctly, and then we may report better conditions!
14. (Q) Should the battery treatment be taken during the menstrual period? (A) Take it regularly during all periods.
15. (Q) Why haven't I seemed to make progress the last few weeks? (A) We will have, and find, those periods when the natural reaction is for there to apparently be a stiffening up of the general conditions. But if there is the more persistency and CONSISTENCY, the results will be the more satisfactory.
16. (Q) Should I wear a belt that will help adjust the muscles of the stomach? (A) A webbing of such a nature would be helpful. Not as a maternity belt, but rather a webbing - like that which may be bound about the body - WOULD be strengthening and helpful; especially if the body is on the feet. And the exercises should be taken; not in extreme cold or under circumstances where the elements or activities cause
631-5 Page 3
distress or anxiety, but walking - and moving of the arms and limbs - is very good.
17. (Q) Would stretching exercises be good for me? (A) These are very good, provided they are done properly. If these are done to attempt to BREAK UP the tendency for adhesions, it would be too severe. Stretchings, though, are very good.
18. (Q) Am I exercising too much? (A) If you will follow these, we will find response.
19. (Q) Would you recommend Dr. Locke for my condition? (A) No.
20. (Q) Why do I have more pain at night and why am I so restless? (A) The natural effect of the barometrical or atmospheric pressures, that make for pressures upon the equilibriums in the body.
21. (Q) What causes the tingling or vibrations in the hands and feet at times? (A) This should be a good sign to the body; for it is the circulation attempting to find its way through distorted conditions that exist in the extremities.
22. (Q) Why do my fingers on my right hand catch in the joints? (A) The same conditions that have been described. Follow these suggestions that have been made, consistently. Be persistent. Be prayerful. Be patient. Be earnest.
