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 here, [3255].
3. As we find here, there are changes taking place in the body forces. The body should consider as to the sources and causes for the neuritic and neurotic conditions that exist through the body. This is what might ordinarily be called a condition wherein the general taxation has run down the battery for the body; that is, the toxic forces in the body have become excessive. Thus there are pains in the arms, or shoulders at times, in the back, through the lower limbs and through the abdominal area. All of these come and go, dependent upon how well and how thoroughly the eliminations are in the body, and as to whether in the diet the body keeps the general physical forces alkaline or allows the greater portion to become acid. Then we have those reflexes that cause some disturbance with the heart, with the kidneys and with the liver. These all arise from toxic forces that affect naturally (for, as the body battery is) heart, liver, lungs and kidneys. These must coordinate. When they do not, some portion of it is going to revert.
4. These for this body would be the better:
5. Take at least once each week a general hydrotherapy treatment. This should include a cabinet sweat followed by a thorough rubdown.
6. About every twenty days have a high colonic irrigation, until there is no reaction of mucous in the stool at all.
7. After the sweat bath there should be the needle baths or showers followed by the massages.
8. These will aid the body in bringing back near to normal resistances.

9. In the diet beware of too much starches or too much combinations of proteins with starches.
10. Keep the eliminations better with the use of minerals for this body rather than vegetable laxatives. Owing to the batteries as it were - liver, kidneys and heart - being run down.
11. These will add to the system - or being more acid, as in a battery, then the water will create more activity in the system. Just as the creating of energies in locomotion in any machinery where such is needed.
12. In the general activities, these should not be excessive, but the massages with the hydrotherapy will be the better for the body.
13. Ready for questions.
14. We are through with this reading. Two copies to Self - (one for the physiotherapist) Copy to Ass'n file " " Miss Goodall for indexing (10/2/43 GD's note: We would refer you to a physiotherapist such as Dr. H. J. Reilly, R.C.A. Building, 1250 6th Ave., N.Y.C.)
