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, [3314].
3. Now, while we find conditions very good in some respects, there are disturbances the aiding or correcting of which would bring about much nearer normal reactions for this body.
4. We find that these have to do with pressures existing in the sympathetic and the cerebrospinal nervous systems. From these pressures there are disturbances affecting the body in different ways, as will be seen.
5. These, then, are the conditions as we find them with this body:
6. The blood supply indicates that there are poor eliminations in and through alimentary canal. There is a prolapsus in the descending colon. This is a contributing cause to the disturbance of poor eliminations; because of the lack of peristaltic movements.
7. These arise from conditions that exist in the lower dorsal areas, or near the 6th, 7th and 8th dorsal. This is the area where there is the feeling of stiffness and soreness, in the body if there is long remaining in one position, as in rest, or if the body gets overheated, or if the body gets cold. Hence a pressure is produced through the area, with tingling sensations to the extremities at times, as if the limbs - or hands and arms - were asleep; or lack of circulation. Then we also find the pressure is part of the disturbance in the blood supply and in the nerve system, causing reactions or irritations in the area between the antrums, or pressures in those areas that supply the lachrymal ducts and nutriment to the optic forces or to the

eye socket itself. The eyeball itself, only disturbing sympathetically, but producing an irritation - as itching or pains through the area when the use of these causes the cutting off of the circulation. Remember, as indicated, the supply is in the sympathetic as well as the cerebrospinal system.
8. These are the disturbances as we find them with this body.
9. Then, in making applications for beneficial conditions for this body - we would first begin with the osteopathic adjustments that will set up drainages; not stimulating but draining the flow of circulation through the alimentary canal.
10. We would have at least two or three colonic irrigations, scientifically given, about eighteen days apart. These will aid in cleansing the body of those disturbances that cause the reactions to the sensory system.
11. The correcting, osteopathically, of those conditions in the areas from the 9th dorsal to the 1st cervical will remove those tendencies that are preventing better eliminations through alimentary canal. Also the pressures should be relieved in the area of the antrum, by the setting up of drainages in the 1st, 2nd cervical; not merely by aligning the cerebrospinal system, but by setting up drainages through the ducts and glands about the neck, the head and the face.
12. If proper drainages are set up, it should not be necessary for operative measures.
13. Such osteopathic treatments we would take about once or twice each week.
14. After the 5th or 6th osteopathic treatment, we would begin using the Violet Ray (hand machine) for head and neck, face and eyes. Use the bulb applicator for the head, neck and face, and the double-eye applicator for the eyes. Use the eye applicator only thirty seconds. Don't try to give the treatment with the single-eye applicator but so that both eyes may be treated at once. Then use the bulb applicator for half a minute. Do these just before the osteopathic treatments are given; that is, after the first six osteopathic treatments have been given begin adding the Violet Ray treatment.
15. Do these, and we will bring better conditions for this body; setting up drainages and stimulating the flow of circulation to remove and correct the sensory conditions, setting up better eliminations through the alimentary canal, and thus we will find much better conditions throughout the body.

16. Ready for questions.
17. (Q) Should an eliminant be taken for the constipation? (A) Preferably use the colonics, about three of these - eighteen days apart - through the periods that the adjustments osteopathically are made. Of course, also watch the diet. Have plenty of raw vegetables and food such as figs or prunes, raisins and the like, and we will have better conditions for the body. Do eat carrots a great deal. These should be scraped or cut very fine and eaten raw, as in gelatin or in such a way that the body does not tire of same. At times they may be grated and eaten with salad dressings if desired, and at times cooked. These add better circulation especially for the eyes, face and nasal passages.
18. (Q) What causes pain in back and side? (A) As indicated, pressures in those areas that disturb the alimentary canal, the stomach and the eliminations.
19. (Q) Can you recommend an osteopath in Toledo that would be sympathetic in following these suggestions? (A) As we find, we would have one suggested by Coulter.
20. (Q) Can you tell us where to obtain a Violet Ray? (A) The Hamilton Beach Manufacturing Company..
21. We are through with this Reading. Two copies to Self - (one for the osteopath) Copy to Ass'n file " " Miss Goodall for indexing (We suggest that you send a copy of your reading to Dr. George N. Coulter, 18 East 41st St., N.Y.C., and ask him to recommend an osteopath in Toledo, who will cooperate by following the suggestions made. A Violet Ray hand machine might be ordered from the Hamilton Beach Mfg. Co., Racine, Wisconsin, or from any electrical supply house; or you might try various beauty parlors. Sometimes a beauty parlor has this type of machine, which you might borrow or rent. It is especially hard to get the Violet Ray now, since the factory has discontinued making them for the duration.)
