At home on Time of Reading ... Road, 4:20 to 4:45 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., N.C.
1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief of this body. You will answer the questions she has submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [1947].
3. Now as we find, in many respects conditions are very good; especially as related to the organs of the sensory system, however, there are disturbances that without proper precautions may not adjust themselves without becoming constitutional disturbances.
4. True, there are portions of the disturbance that are built as a consciousness to the entity, and this - WITH there being those disturbances - will tend to make these become more physical reactions and more of a physical hindrance - while in the present they are more psychological than pathological.
5. These, then, are conditions as we find them with this body, [1947] we are speaking of:
6. In the nervous systems there has been a great deal of anxiety. This, combined with the psychological effects as indicated, tends to make those pressures which cause disturbance to the auditory forces - or the ears; as well as to eyes, to throat, to teeth, to even the vocal cords at times.
7. This is a tendency, as indicated; and unless some physical changes are made, as well as change of attitude taken, it may prove to be a physical handicap to a very good reaction for better conditions.
8. In the centers about the upper dorsal and through the cervical there are the tendencies for hindrance to the flow of nerve and blood supply to head and neck. This lack of supply tends to produce a slowed circulation through the eustachian tubes, as well as the activities in the neck, as related to those areas from the ear TO the optic forces.
1947-2 Page 2
This same slowness of circulation has produced those tendencies for not sufficient circulation through the gums. Hence we have some teeth that need local attention.
9. Hence, the circulation through the upper portions of the body should be CORRECTED osteopathically; and not the finger surgery for the tubes to the ears themselves raised, but sufficient treatments to all the vagus centers as related to the ear, the jaw, the mouth, as to relieve these tensions.
10. Take such adjustments in at least two or three relays; that is,take them twice a week for two to three weeks the first time - then rest a week or ten days - then take the second course of two weeks - rest another week, and then take for another week or two weeks, see?
11. Also we would use the low form of electrical vibrations as found in the Violet Ray (hand machine); using the bulb applicator over the upper portion of the body - that is, especially from the 9th dorsal upward, around the face and head; and using the double-eye applicator over the eyes. Once a week should be sufficient, or twice a week, but the whole treatment lasting only about two and a half to three minutes. Do not give it just as something to be gotten through with, but it would preferably be taken by the self, rather than being given by the one making the osteopathic manipulations.
12. As indicated, some of the teeth need local attention. Also we would use the IPSAB at least three times a week, as a massage for the gums; and we would find this destructive tendency in the gums disappearing. The thorough massage two or three times a week with the IPSAB will correct this softening of gums, and aid the circulation - together with the circulation also being stimulated through the osteopathic adjustments and the electrical vibrations of the violet ray as indicated; for the use of the Ipsab as a local application would work together with these.
13. Then, as to the diet - we would take precautions that better eliminations are kept. Not too much of fats. Not too much of starches or of sweets.
14. This, now, does not indicate that any or all of these are to be eliminated, but keep a better balance in the use of these with the diet.
15. And we will find that, with this change in the diet, the use of CODIRON as a tonic will supply energies and the proportionate character of vitamins for teeth as well as the NERVES of the body, for better correction with the vibrations used and the manipulations given for eyes and ears also. This will also aid in correcting the nervous digestion that at times disturbs the body. Take two of the
1947-2 Page 3
Codiron tablets at the heavier meal of the day, and one tablet at each of the other meals; NOT after or before, but WITH the meals, see?
16. Do these and we will bring better forces and influences for this body, [1947].
17. Ready for questions.
18. (Q) Is there any hidden or deep-seated infected tooth? (A) Only as indicated, as we find. Local attention, and then the use of Ipsab twice to three times a week - a thorough massage of the gums with same.
19. (Q) Specifically what teeth need local attention? (A) These had best be determined by one that is a dental surgeon, see?
20. (Q) Is an X-Ray necessary? (A) We would not find this absolutely necessary.
21. (Q) Does pyorrhea exist in gums? (A) Unless there is a better circulation it WILL become a part of the disturbance. The use of IPSAB will destroy this tendency, and the beginning of pyorrhea disturbance.
22. (Q) What causes itching inside ear? (A) Slowed circulation, as indicated.
23. (Q) Is there any danger of adhesions as a result of appendectomy? (A) Not if the vibratory forces and the massages are given as we have indicated.
24. (Q) Should I continue taking liver extract? (A) We would take the Codiron in preference to the liver extract.
25. (Q) What causes occasional dizziness? (A) This unbalancing to the ears - hence the corrections needed in the areas indicated.
26. (Q) The "lump" feeling in region of solar plexus, occasionally? (A) The digestion disturbed, as indicated, by the nerve forces of the system.
27. (Q) What was the cause of my severe skin infection last year? (A) Slow circulation, especially to the sympathetics, or the superficial circulatory system. It is under control, - may occur again in a portion of the summer, but with the use of those properties indicated, the vibrations and the applications indicated, it should NOT be a disturbance.
28. (Q) What is the soreness in front of the right arm pit? (A) Portion of the mammary gland being disturbed by this slowed circulation through upper portion of body. This should disappear with at least the period of the second series of osteopathic manipulations.
29. (Q) Does this cause the left leg to become numb at times? (A) Rather it is a general condition that causes the left leg to become jerky at times and numb.
1947-2 Page 4
30. (Q) Is my heart in reasonably good condition now? (A) Very good.
31. (Q) Liver? Gall bladder? (A) This now, of course, has a great strain to be active with the rest of the system, owing to the disturbance through the caecum area; but if the proper diet is kept, and the other treatments followed, these should function very good for some period yet.
32. (Q) What is the best location for me to live, for my health? (A) West.
33. (Q) What specific place in the West? (A) The other side of the Mississippi!
34. (Q) Should I, or will I have other children? (A) This is a matter of choice. There is the possibility, and there has been the susceptibility already. But this depends upon the choice of the body, as to its relationships with others.
