1. EC: Yes. As we find, conditions are not so good. There has been an overtaxing of the system under stress and strain with the heat that has upset the system, allowing for poisons and accumulations to make for a distress through congestions.
2. As we would find, a DEEP bodily or body massage, with corrections given occasionally osteopathically, would be of the better material aid in the present.
3. For such a DEEP massage each evening, we would use oils combined in this manner:
4. To 4 ounces of Russian White Oil add, in the order given: Witchhazel.......................1 ounce, Olive Oil........................1 ounce, Compound Tincture of Benzoin...1/2 ounce, Oil of Pine Needles............1/2 ounce, Oil of Sassafras Root..........1/2 ounce, Oil of Wintergreen.............1/2 ounce. This will separate when standing. But when ready for use, which should be each evening, shake together, pour a small quantity into an open saucer or plate and massage all the body along the spine will absorb; a circular motion along the spinal column and on either side of the column. Let these be the muscular forces of the spine. Begin in the center of the spine, massage towards the lower end, extending over the lower limbs, especially the sciatic centers and to the feet, and massage the feet thoroughly so that the absorption of this to the bursa will relieve this strain and this heaviness that has existed. We would also massage this to the upper portion, going to the head or neck, around the throat, portions of the face, especially the left portion to the ear, the arms. And we will find that with the corrections, as these are given, we will bring

better conditions for this body.
5. Ready for questions.
6. (Q) Is there any danger of the numbness occurring again? (A) If there wasn't we wouldn't have given these for the starting of the circulation and the stimulating of the ganglia forces along the cerebrospinal system, and especially to the locomotaries.
7. (Q) Was this paralysis that occurred? (A) Not paralysis or paresis as ORDINARILY known, but rather a FILLING of the blood vessels and thus producing the pressure that caused the numbness. As in times before we have had a partial paralysis of a different nature, produced by the letting of blood from a period when - Well, it was at birth of a child - that made for a strain to the vagus center, and thus a portion of the face became involved. This was LETTING of blood and not a clot, see; because there was a good deal of blood and not the proper precautions to stopping it there.
8. (Q) Can that be entirely overcome? (A) Gradually, because necessarily this is a growth and will necessarily need vibratory forces. But do these in the present. Later we would use low electrical vibrations of the Wet Cell Appliance, used AS would be the Radio-Active. This used for twenty minutes, but don't begin this until after these have been started through the system, see? This would be begun in about twenty to thirty days.
9. (Q) Would the use of alcohol once a week be harmful? (A) This is not harmful if used properly, and precautious.
10. (Q) Have the former treatments been given correctly and should they be continued? (A) Those that do not interfere with these should be continued. These should be followed in the present. For this has been a strain, under heat and under exercises that were not exactly in keeping with those precautions given.
11. (Q) Should I continue taking any of the medicine as prescribed by the doctor? (A) Do one or the other. Choose.
12. (Q) Any other advice? (A) We are through with this reading. Copy to Self " " Ass'n file [Before waking, EC said, "Put an emphasis under the DEEP".]
