Time of Reading 10:45 to 11:00 A. M. Eastern Standard Time.
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 which may be submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes.
3. Now as we find, in many respects the physical forces of the body are very good. There are inclinations and tendencies, there are those disturbances that have become of such a constitutional nature that the growth about the structural portions - where there have been hindrances owing to the great temperature in the superficial circulation or lymph - has caused the inactivity or non-use of the limb.
4. These as we find are of such a great growth in these directions, they may be aided but will require long, tedious, consistent, persistent application. But such applications would be found to be most helpful in that they would tend to supply elements in the physical functioning of the body in such measures as to bring a great deal better balance and normalcy in many other ways also.
5. Hence as we find, it would be MOST advisable to undertake same, even with the persistence necessary.
6. First, we would use the Radio-Active Appliance; but here use it only on the opposite wrist from the afflicted lower limb AND about the ankle of the afflicted lower limb, inside just below the ankle bone, see? This would be used just on these areas - that is, the attachments, you see, would be to the injured limb and to the wrist on the opposite side of body; for thirty minutes twice each day. This would be done every day for a whole month; preferably applied in the evening before retiring, and morning when the body rests from the morning household duties - or from nine-thirty to ten o'clock, or the like, see? and use those as the periods for meditation. After using for a whole month, then leave

off for ten days, then use again, and so on - keeping up this routine throughout the whole period of treatments indicated. Keep the plates very clean; and attach ONLY to the injured or ill limb AND the opposite wrist, see?
7. Also, about three times each week - but have regular periods - we would massage the body with an equal combination of Olive Oil and Tincture of Myrrh - heating the Oil to add the Myrrh. This does not mean boiling, - just heat it enough to add. Massage gently, but in a ROTARY motion, into the area across the sacral, across the lumbar, and down the sciatic nerve. Take at least twenty to thirty minutes to give the massage. Begin with the lumbar axis, across the sacral, and down the limb - especially the limb that is ailing, see? After the massage it would be well that there be a gentle massage with a heavy towel. Also, it would be better if hot applications were made over the area BEFORE the combination is massaged into the limb and sacral areas, see? hot towels laid over same.
8. After a month, leave off this massage for about a week.
9. Then change the combination - using an equal combination of Olive Oil and Peanut Oil, in the same manner, for a month; then leave THIS off for about a week to ten days.
10. THEN begin using a combination prepared in this way and manner: Pine Oil...........................1 ounce, Oil of Pine Needles..............1/4 ounce, Peanut Oil.......................1/2 ounce. Use this for one month. Then leave off a week.
11. Then begin all over again. Continue these rounds of treatment, in the order indicated, for at least twelve months.
12. And we will find not only the ability for the use of the limb, but the general health of the body will be much improved also.
13. After that, we would give further instructions.
14. Ready for questions.
15. (Q) Any advice regarding diet? (A) It is a very good dietician. Of course, keep the eliminations nominal or normal; at least once or twice each day.
16. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " Ass'n file (See folder [which was enclosed] regarding Radio-Active
