1. EC: There are conditions as we find in this system, Mrs. [979], we are speaking of here, have to do more with the nervous system by its reaction rather than by organic troubles within the body. We find the blood supply or force is low, the white being predominant, that is, the white corpuscles are growing in number. They are taking from the hemoglobin needed to rebuild in the system, hence, the tired feeling generally prevailing over the whole system, the swelling at times of the feet on account of distribution of blood causing contraction throughout the muscular forces in every portion of the body. Sometimes there is a touch of indigestion, again the heart action becomes low or is speeded too fast at others. The body is easily frightened, trouble produced throughout all the functioning of the sensory system, of the nervous system, that is, the sound fails to act or register itself properly through the ear, the eye fails to perceive, the sense of smell does not revibrate, the sense of speech fails to act in accord with impressions. This does not mean these organs are organically affected, but the incentive for their action from the nerve centers is impaired on account of lesions that have formed about the centers that are governing the functioning of these organs. These are found at third to fifth cervical, second, fifth and ninth dorsal, first and second lumbar and throughout the sacrum. To relieve this condition we would relax by vibration rather than by taking medicinal properties in the system. Let those be through diet as taken - the nutrition would be through the massage as through the vibrator used with the sponge, over the centers of these portions. Let these be given with the body lying face downward, perfectly relaxed, never given with the body erect. The diet should be no meats except that of fish or wild game or fowl, rather of vegetables and that green, not those that have been seasoned or old. If this is used we will find more relief in the body. This body is not sick all the time but at times these conditions exist.
