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, [1713]; this we have had before.
3. As we find, many changes have come about in the general physical forces of the body. These disturbing conditions in the present, however, as we find are partially due to some of the old disturbances; as indicated with the glandular system.
4. While changes have come, the system has in many ways adjusted itself to meet the varying conditions through which the system has passed.
5. In the present, with the beginning of the changing (though it will be some time before this is completed in the general conditions of the body), the activities through the glandular forces become responsible for many of the disturbing influences.
6. These, then, are the conditions as we find them in the present with this body, [1713]:
7. In the blood supply we find there is a disturbance in the coordination of the superficial and the deeper circulation. Hence those activities where eliminations and the glandular forces, as related to the thyroids, the adrenals and through portions of the intestinal system AND through the abdominal area, ALL leave the effects of same in the activity of this incoordinant condition in the blood supply.
8. Hence we find at times, as on portions of the abdomen and on portions of the body - in the thigh and in the groin areas, about the pubic center and the like, as well as in the areas about the left breast - yes, and partially across the right breast we find those conditions where there is the roughness of the skin, as well as discolorations at times.
9. These show the poor eliminations and the tendency for
1713-20 Page 2
portions of the body to become easily fatigued and weary from activities that cause the use of energies in the body; thus producing the great quantities of the acids not eliminated from the system.
10. With the upsetting of the system in this manner, we find the nausea at times, the general bearing down pains in portions of the colon, and the abdomen more towards the LEFT side becomes apparent in the general conditions of the body.
11. These, as indicated, arise from the activity - or NON-activity - of the glandular system; in relation to especially the conditions or glands as we have indicated.
12. This also produces the thinness of the fingernails, the very unusual conditions with the manner of the toe nails, the conditions of the hair on portions of the body becoming scant - as the hair falling out from the scalp, as the general irritations through portions of the body - as about the ear and the throat.
13. All of these are parts, or disturbances arising from this incoordination.
14. As we find, then, in making corrective forces for the body - all of these general conditions should be taken into consideration. Not only should applications be used that would be beneficial for the superficial conditions, but those that would go to the deeper-seated, or make for better corrections through the GENERAL activity of the system. Thus there might be created quite a near normal balance THROUGH the periods of the change that are in the next two or three years ahead of the body - when there are the adjustments that must come with the periods of menopause. Though this has NOT begun as yet, there is irregularity arising from general disturbances through the glandular forces as related to the functioning organs of the body.
15. Then, we would begin, first, with these:
16. For at least ten days, take one minim of Atomidine each morning before breakfast, in half a glass of water.
17. Practically the whole period that the Atomidine is taken, once a day we would make local application of D.D.D. AS an ointment, to those portions across the lower part of the back, across the lower part of the abdomen, and about the body where there is the roughness and the discoloration. This will not discolor if it is massaged GENTLY INTO the skin itself.
18. Then after the ten days, begin with the OSTEOPATHIC adjustments and corrections for the lumbar and sacral and ileac plexus, as WELL as the upper dorsal AND through the cervical area.
1713-20 Page 3
19. Take about sixteen such adjustments and treatments.
20. After there have been at least six of the treatments, begin again with the Atomidine in the same manner as indicated for ANOTHER ten days. Then leave off again for another month. Then take again for another ten days.
21. Throughout the periods be mindful of the diet. Refrain from any great quantity of very highly seasoned food, or fried foods. No white bread. Black or brown or whole wheat is preferable.
22. Take high enemas at least once each month, oftener if there are not the proper eliminations through alimentary canal.
23. Do these, and be consistent and persistent - we will bring the better conditions for the body.
24. For the condition of the scalp - for the condition under the arm and about the breast, massage gently into the scalp and into THIS area where there are not abrasions on the arms, you see, and about the breast, that of Listerine full strength; gently but thoroughly. It is necessary for the hair that it be rinsed, but allowed to stay on or in the hair and scalp for fifteen to twenty minutes after thoroughly massaging into the scalp, see? It would be patted on, only, in those portions about the arm and the breast. For those portions where there are the abrasions, use the D.D.D. ointment, as indicated.
25. Ready for questions.
26. (Q) Has my health improved since the last reading? (A) As indicated, there have been many changes, and the body has adjusted itself much. There is, as indicated, the beginning of a change. Hence there is the necessity of fortifying self through the purifying of the glandular forces, which may be accomplished by even the small quantity of the Atomidine (atomic iodine) taken into the system; provided the adjustments are made through portions of the physical structure of the body so that the organs AS they function may become nearer normal in their activity.
27. (Q) Have my eyes become stronger, and do I need to change glasses yet? (A) As we find, these have become somewhat stronger; but we would find that when the manipulations are given, and the corrections for those areas especially in the upper dorsal and cervical, there will be even greater strength to the eyes. And THEN, AFTER the series of treatments would be the better time to change the glasses.
28. (Q) How can I increase the sight of my left eye?
1713-20 Page 4
Should I exercise it? (A) Very well to have or use the head and neck exercise. This is most beneficial for such disturbances.
29. (Q) What remedy can I use to overcome intense car sickness? (A) This arises not only from the unbalanced condition in the stomach itself but the unbalanced condition in the liquid or tubes in the ears. And it is as much the noise that causes a disturbance to the stomach, causing nausea, as anything else. It is well, then, when riding on car or the like, to take a small quantity of a compound prepared in this manner, the ingredients to be added in the order given, and it must be kept fresh, or not attempted to be used after three weeks of its combination: To 1 ounce of Lime Water, add - in the order named: Cinnamon Water..............................1 ounce, 10% solution Iodide of Potassium...........10 minims, 10% solution Bromide of Potassium..........10 minims. Shake the solution well before taking, and the dose would be about half a teaspoonful in a quarter glass of water. This will prevent nausea, will settle the stomach - but it is necessary to keep the body-system thoroughly working. Put cotton in the ear when riding - this will help materially.
30. (Q) Do my internal organs need attention? (A) Only the toning and tuning that may be received by the general manipulation and the specific adjustments in areas indicated.
31. (Q) Do I have any inward trouble that causes me to play out so soon? (A) Only the general toxic forces that arise from the lack of the balance kept in the general system, as has been indicated.
32. (Q) Are my feet causing a lot of these aches and pains, and if so what can I do for that? (A) The adjustments through the lumbar and the ileum plexus, as well as correcting of the feet when the manipulations are made.
33. (Q) What is lowering my vitality? (A) Toxic forces as indicated, from overacidity. Do these things as indicated, and we will bring the better forces for this body, Mrs. [1713].
34. We are through for the present.
