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; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body, [2966].
3. As we find, while the conditions that cause the greater disturbance are in the nature of accumulations, these need not necessarily require operative measures. For these, as we find, are lymph accumulations. And if there are the administrations that would make for the setting up of the proper coordinations in the eliminating channels, these may be removed without the necessity of operative forces.
4. To be sure, these might be removed by operation. Yet, without removing the causes of such, we find that - at this particular period of this entity's experience - it would only be a drain on the system, leaving the tendencies that might bring greater distress later.
5. On the other hand, if there are measures taken to set up the proper coordinations in ALL of the eliminating channels, if the operation THEN becomes necessary the system will be in such a condition that there would only be minor effects upon the body from such measures.
6. These conditions arise, we find, from deflection of eliminating forces, by the creating of excesses through changes wrought in the general glandular system; so that, with such activities, these accumulations have formed through the abdominal and pelvic area.
7. And with those activities to create a better stimuli for general eliminations, as well as the specific activity of the circulation between the liver and the kidneys, and the organs of the lower abdominal areas, there should be brought bettered conditions for the body.
8. We would suggest these measures:
9. We would have at least twenty to twenty-five hydrotherapy
2966-1 Page 2
treatments, under the direction - as we find - of Reilly. In the beginning, for the first six to eight, we would have these twice a week; afterwards once a week should be sufficient.
10. The hydrotherapy should include the steam baths, but preferably make these fume baths; taking precautions when these are given. Use for the fumes alternately, one time Atomidine, the next time witchhazel - boiling in the water that causes the fumes to settle over the body.
11. Such a fume bath would be followed with a thorough rubdown, especially along the spine - following the hot and cold water spray, which will also aid in that stimulation necessary. For the thorough massage we would use a combination of two parts Russian White Oil, or Usoline, or Nujol, to one part Pine Oil. And use the regular Pine Oil, not pitch, not pine needles, but Pine Wood Oil, see?
12. Be precautious as to the diet. Do have plenty of sea foods - once or twice a week - to add more of the iodine for glandular clearance; as the fume baths and the absorptions that come from these will stimulate to purify the glands and set up better conditions.
13. Have sufficient exercise in the open each day. Walking is the better exercise, besides that which will be attained in taking the hydrotherapy and massage.
14. Do these and we will make for better conditions.
15. Ready for questions.
16. (Q) Considering my health, would it be better for me to remain in the hotel this summer or to look now for an apartment? (A) An apartment, we would give.
17. (Q) Is it important to reduce my weight, when I am under such constant strain? (A) The type of treatments as suggested should aid in better equalizing the weight.
18. (Q) Does smoking do me much harm? (A) Smoking is not harmful if done in moderation. Excesses produce too much of poisons in body.
19. (Q) How can I get more sleep without drugs? (A) If these applications are made, they should be most beneficial in this respect. A use of the Radio-Active Appliance for this body will put it to sleep, and be an aid in equalizing circulation.
20. (Q) If the operation becomes necessary, should the woman consulted - or a man - perform it? (A) As we find, if these directions are carefully followed, an operation will be a long ways off, if ever! But when or if such should become necessary, or should there continue to

be a great mental stress and pain, consult someone else besides the one you have!
21. We are through with this reading. Two copies to Self (one for Dr. H. J. Reilly, The Reilly Health Service, R. C. A. Bldg., 1250 Sixth Ave., New York City) Copy to Ass'n file (4/16/43 GD's note: See booklet [which was enclosed] explaining theory of Radio-Active Appliance. At your convenience we'd appreciate a history of your case to the time of obtaining the rdg., so as to have something with which to compare our information.) )
