1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [1710]; this we have had before.
3. As we find, changes have come about in the general physical forces of the body since last we had same.
4. In the present there are other conditions which have arisen that must be taken into account, if there would be brought about the more perfect coordination in the physical forces of the body.
5. There are weaknesses produced by the strain upon the body, in which it became necessary for the operative measures. Hence there should be precautions as to the effect of the anaesthesia upon the general system, especially lungs and intestines. Also there must be precautions not to overstrain self while the whole physical forces are adjusting themselves to the changes wrought.
6. The effect of the anaesthesia is to produce periods or mornings when there are headaches, a bit of dizziness, an upset at times of the digestive forces. All of these, to be sure, are the natural results - under the conditions.
7. Hence for this body, it is well to take occasionally - a couple of times each day - carbonated water. This does not mean merely soft drinks, but drink carbonated water - half plain and half carbonated water, at the fount. This is well to counteract the effects of general conditions which exist through the lymph in the general blood supply, especially through these periods of hot days or hot weather.
8. Keep in the open as much as practical.
9. Do not strain the body by pushing, pulling, lifting or the like, to any great extent. Not that the body is to give way to the weaknesses, but rather there should be precautions taken for at least another three to four weeks.

10. Then there should be near normal conditions if there will be kept those general precautions.
11. Have sufficient of the adjustments osteopathically, which should be in the nature of GENERAL treatments to relax rather than to stimulate too greatly; with particular reference to those areas from the lumbar axis to the upper dorsal, of course coordinating the vagus center with those corrections made in the lower portion of the spine.
12. Once a week, or once in ten days, or two or three a month should be sufficient; but these should be kept up for at least three or four months.
13. Ready for questions.
14. (Q) Is there need for further correction in the fifth rib area? (A) Only as the coordination of these areas with the rest is necessary.
15. (Q) Please give further corrective diet. (A) As indicated, it is necessary in the present to add plenty of the elements found in raw cabbage, raw carrots, and occasionally salads. Not that the body is to leave off these entirely, to be sure, but these are to be in the diet often - two to three times a week as a part of some meal during the day. The general diet should be for body-building. Be sure that most of the foods carry especially Vitamin B. These are best found in reinforced cereals, as well as in all fruits and vegetables of the yellow variety, as well as in water cress, mustard and the like.
16. (Q) What should be done to relieve the discomfort in small of the back, apparently resulting from spinal injections? (A) This has been indicated, as to the use of the corrective gases that will relieve gas in stomach, as well as to the general character of foods that will work with same through the intestinal tract - if combined with the character of adjustments indicated.
17. (Q) Please give corrective treatment to relieve tendency towards baldness. (A) The better measures for correction in this direction are the use of crude oil with a very mild shampoo of grain alcohol.
