Time of Reading Set bet. 3:30 to 4:30 P. M. Eastern War Time. ..., Illinois. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Cregier Avenue - yes, where the trees are.

2. Yes, we have the body here, [3471].

3. As we find, there are conditions that disturb the better physical forces of the body. These arise from poor eliminations in varied forms through the body. The results of same are a neuritic-neurotic condition. Thus the areas through the hips and the pelvic bone cause the greater distress, cause - as it will be found - the body has strained or sprained the pelvic center or pelvic axis in the 4th lumbar and the coccyx end of the spine.

4. First we would have a cleansing of the body by the use of a series of Castor Oil Packs. We would apply these for an hour each day for three days in succession each week - say Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays. Use three thicknesses of flannel saturated with hot Castor Oil, applying on the liver and the caecum area; not across the abdomen, but down the right side, covering the lacteal duct and the caecum and appendicial area. Then apply the electric pad, not so hot as to cause discomfort but very warm.

5. When the Pack is taken off, sponge the body off with a weak soda water.

6. After the third day, take internally two tablespoonsful of Olive Oil. Rest then until the next Monday and repeat the whole procedure.

7. During these periods, let the diet be semi-liquids; not too great a quantity, but body-building forces.

8. After the third series of the Packs, each three-day period followed with the Olive Oil internally, have a colonic irrigation scientifically given.

9. Then the body would be ready for the corrections osteopathically in the coccyx end of the spine and the 4th

lumbar. Yes, coordinate the 9th dorsal, the 3rd and 2nd and 1st cervical but make corrections. About six treatments would be required here. If there is trouble in correcting the areas, apply wet heat; preferably of an alkaline nature, or four to five thicknesses of cotton cloth saturated with Glyco-Thymoline. Keep this heated with salt heat, not with an electric pad. This may be placed over the coccyx and the lower lumbar and throughout the sacral. Corrections may then be easily made. Keep the pelvic bone well balanced. This is judged preferably by the length in the feet.

10. Do these and we will find we will make for better conditions for this body.

11. Ready for questions.

12. We are through with this reading. Two copies to Self (one for osteopath - Dr. D. A. Musselman, 58 East Washington St., Chicago, Illinois) Copy to Ass'n file (See directions [which were enclosed] for preparing hot Castor Oil Packs.)
