Time of Reading 10:50 to 11:10 A. M. Eastern War Time. ..., Va.
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 questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [3466], present in this room.
3. As we find, there are disturbing conditions. These are rather subtle in their nature, causing reactions or reflexes that are apparently remote from their sources.
4. Then, these are conditions as we find them with this body:
5. In the blood supply we find a form of anemia. However, this is rather of an unusual nature or form; being in the superficial circulation in the lymph and the emunctories of the body. Thus it forms a condition wherein the skin often suffers in its reactions.
6. We find also that there are conditions in the liver and gall duct area, where disturbances have caused a great deal of change in this circulation, and cross nerves are the sources of this particular type of anemia.
7. In the nervous system, because of these disturbances, we find periods when there are anxieties created by the poor coordination between sympathetic and cerebrospinal circulation. The body feels at times as if it is slow in comprehension, slow in reactions. Yet with the reflex in brain forces the body is much above the normal in its reactions to knowledge or understanding.
8. As to the organs of the body - we find that the organs of the sensory system are under greater distress, as indicated at times in the conditions with eyes, the slow tentativeness in hearing, though not an organic or even a functional disturbance. It is one of nerve transmission - even the

taste is affected at times, so that things don't taste exactly right.
9. All of these are caused from the manner of reflexes.
10. The heart and digestive system at times are quite variable in their reactions, as also in eliminations.
11. These are disturbances as we find them with this body.
12. In making corrections:
13. There should be a series of from three to four to five hydrotherapy treatments, and then a rest period of a week to ten days, and then the hydrotherapy treatments taken again once or twice a week for three to four to five weeks. Each treatment should include a light sweat, followed by oil rubs. Not too much alcohol should be used in closing the pores. Rather as this combination of oils: Olive Oil.....................2 ounces, Peanut Oil....................2 ounces, Lanolin (liquefied).........1/4 ounce. Shake these together, pouring a small quantity into a saucer and massage into the body; not pouring back into the container what is left over - if any. Massage thoroughly over the abdominal area, especially in the centers of lymph patches in the spinal system - especially at the 1st, 2nd and 3rd cervical, on each side - not on the cerebrospinal system itself; at the 2nd and 3rd dorsal, 9th dorsal, and the whole of the sacral and lumbar area; then on the frontal portion of the body, especially - not just slap-dab and spread all over - at the base of the collar bone, or at the ends of same, then at the lower portion of the breast bone or the sternum. Massage these areas thoroughly. Also massage around the naval center and the pubic center, but especially on the abdomen, around the central portion, or where there are the divisions in the organs of the upper and lower portion of the body - or the diaphragm area, and especially the liver and caecum area. Then massage the limbs and the feet, especially the bursa of the feet, top and bottom.
14. After these have been taken for at least two series, have daily for about thirty days, just before retiring the Violet Ray - for a minute and a half to two minutes along either side of the cerebrospinal system; extending to the head and back of the ears and side of face, but not over the eyes or the mouth or chin, but the side of the head. Do not begin this treatment until the two series of hydrotherapy treatments have been taken.
15. At the same time the Violet Ray is begun, start taking
3466-1 Page 3
also a tonic such as found in KalDak to add the body-building forces and vitamins necessary - as niacin and iron, phosphorous, silicon. Take a heaping teaspoonful once each day, dissolved first in a little hot water and then the glass filled with milk and cream - or the top from a bottle of milk, the milk and cream stirred together.
16. Do these and we will bring better conditions for this body.
17. Ready for questions.
18. (Q) What can be done for pain at base of spine? What causes it? (A) The massages as indicated. This is centralized from the drawing on the cerebrospinal nerve system by the sympathetic or the lymph nerve supply.
19. (Q) What causes and what will relieve headaches? (A) The general toxic conditions as a result of the strain on the nerve system through those activities. All of these things indicated are to contribute to the relief of these tensions that produce same.
20. (Q) Any suggestions about diet? (A) Just keep away from sweets, raw apples, raw pears, plums or peaches. These canned, however, are very well. Refrain from meats of any kind. Eat plenty of sea foods, and fowl may be taken.
21. (Q) Any suggestions to help recovery of hand? (A) What do you think we have been doing in giving all of these applications! The massages especially in those centers of the 1st and 2nd dorsals would have to do with the control of the activities through same. Do these things and we will bring better conditions.
