Time of Reading At home, 10:35 to 10:55 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., Conn.
1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions she has submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [1031].
3. As we find, we have had this body before; and there has been the lack of the application of those things or elements which, as indicated, would have prevented a great deal of the present disturbance with this body.
4. For, now, we will find there should be more extreme measures taken - if there would be the corrections brought about with and for this body.
5. We find that the circulatory system is hindered by the lack of proper assimilation, owing to inactivity and the improper balance in the glandular forces of the system.
6. While there has been SOME help through the administration of glandular injections for activity, these lack in producing the proper balance - owing to the static condition produced between the sympathetic and the cerebrospinal nerve impulse as indicated through especially the lumbar, sacral and the effects that are produced to the lower extremities, and THEIR effect upon the locomotory system, and especially to sciatic center.
7. In the nerve forces, as indicated, the incoordination has existed and does exist mostly between the superficial circulation and the deeper circulation. And these center mostly from the lumbar, sacral and ileum plexus; thus hindering in the activities, causing the lack of a superficial circulation in many conditions through the special lower portions of the body.
8. These pressures will necessarily need relief, but there must be such a stimulation as to make for activities from the external applications.
9. We find that the organs themselves are affected in their functioning owing to the glandular disturbance; and these as we find not only include the thyroid but also the ducts and
1031-2 Page 2
glands as related to liver and the circulatory forces as from secretions through pancreas, spleen AND the effect of the gall duct activity.
10. Then, in making applications in the present:
11. First, there should be for at least six weeks the almost daily use - or every other day at least - of the hot and cold water applications, or steam - and the massage following same; stressing, though, the hot and cold water applications. Not the osteopathic adjustments, but more of a neuropathic adjustment following such water applications.
12. Also we would begin taking internally, alternately, doses of Atomidine and Chloride of Gold; two days of one, two days of the other - prepared and taken in this manner:
13. Prepare the Chloride of Gold Solution in the proportions of one grain to one ounce of Distilled Water.
14. Also prepare two grains of Bromide of Soda to one ounce of Distilled water. Keep these two solutions separate, except when the dosage is to be taken.
15. When taken, there would be one drop of the Gold Solution and two drops of the Soda Solution taken in half a glass of water. Add the drops to the water and take immediately. Take this dosage of evening before retiring, for two days in succession.
16. Then the next two days take one drop of commercial strength Atomidine in half a glass of water before any meal of morning.
17. Continue alternating these in this manner; taking the Gold two days, the Atomidine two days, etc.
18. After the third or fourth week of the hot and cold water applications, we would then begin also with the low electrical vibratory forces as would carry the Gold Solution into the system vibratorially. This would be through the use of the Wet Cell Appliance, which would be given at the time the hot and cold water applications are given; being applied just afterward, and THEN the gentle massage given after same, see? This would be attached for thirty minutes, then, every other day - at the time of the hot and cold water applications. The attachments would be made to the lumbar axis with the small plate, and to the umbilicus and lacteal duct plexus with the larger plate through which the Gold Solution passes (in the proportion of two grains to each ounce of distilled water).
19. As to the diets - these have been varied for the body.
20. As we find, it is well not to use any fried foods. Have at least one meal each day when only raw vegetables would be taken. These may be a combination, with or without dressing - according to the taste of the body.

21. Do these, consistently, and we will find great help for this body, [1031].
22. Ready for questions.
23. (Q) Would Dr. Backman be suggested for the hot and cold water treatments, and for the applying of the Wet Cell Appliance also when the time comes for that part of the treatment? (A) Backman would be excellent for such treatments!
24. (Q) Why are veins uncomfortable, also tissues of body dead and inactive? (A) Owing to the incoordination between the superficial and the deeper circulation. Hence the need of those applications such as suggested, for the stimulating of the system to carry the circulation back and forth through the body.
25. (Q) Should gland injections and nerve remedies be continued? (A) These as we find had best be left off, if those applications here suggested are to be kept up. But DO NOT use one portion of the treatment here outlined and not the other! These are supposed to work together. Either be as consistent and faithful as is the desire for help, or leave it all off!
26. (Q) Why does vibration seem to upset me and let everything down? (A) Owing to the lack of stimulating the coordinant activity of the superficial and cerebrospinal nerve impulses. Hence the need for the water treatments first, and NOT the vibratory forces or electrical forces until there has been a semblance of stimulation - and THEN only the LOWEST form, as indicated, by the use of the low Wet Cell Appliance.
27. (Q) Why has not osteopathic treatment benefited me, except occasionally? (A) This has not been able to reach the cause. And there hasn't been consistent activity. If there had been the CONSISTENCY in the beginning, as was indicated, there wouldn't be the disturbance there is now! Do that indicated. We are through for the present.
