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; this we have had before.
3. As we find, conditions are much improved. However, there are tendencies at times for the return of headaches, and even at times weariness and a bit of nausea. These come at times when the body overtires itself, or when there is an upsetting from any mental disturbance, or even from an inactivity or overactivity through the digestive system.
4. It would be well in the present, we find, to take a short period of applications as have been suggested, but these a little farther apart. The assisting in the corrections of same in the present will make a greater pick-up for the body than there has been heretofore.
5. Occasionally, outside of the osteopathic adjustments, we would have a good, thorough hydrotherapy treatment. This would include a very light sweat - either the dry or fume type, or the sitz bath. Sitz baths will be well for the body, if these are taken, of course, at the correct period for the body; not just before nor just after the menstrual flow, to be sure. With the hydrotherapy we would have the regular massage - with the cleansing of the colon occasionally - once in six weeks, or once in ten weeks.
6. These will be helpful and will aid in bringing better conditions.
7. Ready for questions.
8. (Q) Would it be beneficial to take some medicine to build up my blood? (A) The vitamins; but be careful as to which ones and how these are taken. The B-Complex One a Day tablets would be helpful. Do not begin these, though, until there has been at least one good, thorough relaxing massage AND one hydrotherapy treatment, including a colonic irrigation.
9. (Q) Should I be fitted to eyeglasses?

(A) Should be fitted to eyeglasses.
10. (Q) What can I do to eliminate the eczema behind my ear which has persisted for so many years? (A) The cleansing of the system, especially with the colonics, will aid in correcting the causes that produce same. The application of Ray's Ointment that is prepared for such will eliminate the local causes.
11. (Q) Is my condition such now that I could have another child, or would that be inadvisable? (A) This would not be advisable for at least another year.
12. (Q) Should I resume osteopathic treatments? (A) Resume these, as indicated, but make them a little bit farther apart. Instead of twice a week, take them once a week now.
13. (Q) Are there any exercises which would be beneficial? (A) The exercises are sufficient, provided the hydrotherapy treatments with the massage are taken. For the body is not lazy, and it is active!
14. (Q) How can I best overcome the run-down feeling, or lack of energy? (A) By taking the vitamins, with keeping the irrigations for the colon but don't have these too often for this body. It may be necessary to have two in the first four weeks, but after that put them at least four to six to ten weeks apart, see?
15. (Q) Why are the headaches at the time of my monthly period? (A) These are part of the clogging that is a part of the general eliminating system. As indicated - see - there are channels or outlets for the eliminating of poisons; that is, used energies, where there is the effect of the activity of the circulation upon foreign forces taken in breath, taken in the dust, taken in particles of food or those activities that come from such as these - from odors or the like. These all, by the segregating of same in the system, produce forces necessary to be eliminated. We eliminate principally through the activity of the lungs, of course, and the perspiratory system, the alimentary canal, and the kidneys. Then, as in the case of women - as here - we find that such periods of the menstrual flow cause congestion in certain areas until the flow is begun, or until there is the beginning of the let-up of same. This, then, of course, clogs some portions of the system. The headaches are the signs or warnings that eliminations are not being properly cared for. Most of this, in this body, comes from the alimentary canal, and from those conditions that exist in portions of the colon itself - as to produce a pressure upon those centers affected from such periods. Hence the

suggestion for the osteopathic corrections, which aid but which do not eliminate all of those conditions which are as accumulations through portions of the colon. Consequently, the colonic irrigations are necessary occasionally, as well as the general hydrotherapy and massage. Do these things, as we have indicated. Keep the mental attitude of a useful, purposeful, directed life; keeping the Creative Forces as the ideals and principles - or in that direction of using the abilities to be helpful to others. Thus we will find bettered conditions, and the manner of better preparation for the body being a channel for another soul's entrance into this material experience.
16. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " Ass'n file (6/21/42 GD's notes: See extra sheet of directions [which was enclosed] for Osteopath, who should refer you to a Physiotherapist or to a Swedish Masseuse who would give the sweat or fume baths and the colonic irrigations, etc. See directions [which were enclosed] for various types of sitz baths, just to give you an idea of the type required for you. Ray's Ointment for Eczema is distributed by Ray Chemical Co., Atten. T. A. Wirsing, 1001-3rd St., Roanoke, Va. It sells for 75 cent a jar. The Fume Baths should be on the order of those given by Dr. Marion Dick, 504l Spruce St., Philadelphia, Penna., under the auspices of the Physical Therapy Section of the American Osteopathic Association. If your osteopath, Dr. Rathbun, does not know of this type of treatment get him to write Dr. Dick for circulars, etc. Or, you yourself could write her. She has had experience with following the Readings.) ings.)
