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 - nice man!
3. We have the body here, [3539].
4. As we find, there are disturbances that must be corrected; else the body will find greater disturbances later on that may become very serious.
5. These have to do with the eliminations and assimilation, and the effect being produced upon organs of the central circulation and the nervous system of same.
6. Then, these are conditions as we find them with this body:
7. In the activities through the body, through first cold, congestion, a catarrhal condition has formed about the gall duct and liver. This has prevented proper flow of the secretions that aid in assimilating fats, especially, and proteins, and such things. This has gradually put a strain on the body, with the poor eliminations, until we have at times extreme neuritic conditions through various portions of the body; at times in hands, in shoulders, but the more severe in the pains through the chest. These are still neuritic. For these are affecting the pleura of the lung itself, from poisons or toxic conditions around the aorta artery.
8. The thrombus area at times becomes too full. This is not necessarily a heart disturbance but may easily become so.
9. The nerve forces are pressed upon by the fullness of the lymph circulation and the lack of coordinating this with general eliminations. Hence we find periods of bad taste in the mouth, stiffness in fingers, a sadness about the face, bags under the eyes. The kidneys give a disturbance,
3539-1 Page 2
burning sensation with the bladder, aching through the feet, shoulders, head and lower limbs, eyes and body.
10. These are conditions as we find them with this body.
11. In making corrections we would first have a series of hydrotherapy treatments, including each week a very slow and very low Dry Heat Cabinet Bath, not ever raising the temperature too high - for it would be dangerous for the body. Let the body just begin to be moist, and then have a Fume Bath - in the same Cabinet, you see, turning off the lights and using about half a teaspoonful of sweet oil and a whole teaspoonful of witchhazel in the pint of boiling water, so that these fumes settle over the body.
12. Then have a thorough rubdown, after a needle shower - hot and cold, or the body being wrapped in a hot blanket when coming out of the Fume Bath. Have a good massage using a combination of two ounces of Olive Oil and a quarter ounce of Lanolin (liquefied). This should be over chest, under arms, around the neck, along the back, across the diaphragm especially, and the abdominal areas - not too much pressure, but a good kneading of the body.
13. We would have at least six of these hydrotherapy treatments.
14. Then begin with good osteopathic adjustments, giving special reference to the 5th and 6th dorsal and throughout the sacral area. The 3rd cervical also should be partially adjusted, not at each treatment - but a relaxing treatment one time, an adjustment the next. Have five or six of these.
15. Then empty the gall duct osteopathically.
16. Of course, with the hydrotherapy treatments, during those periods that these are taken, have two colonics - one in the beginning and one toward the end of the series of treatments.
17. Do these and we will have better conditions.
18. Ready for questions.
19. (Q) Should I discontinue the shots? (A) You'd better, if you don't want to get too much of these and cause a heart stroke here!
20. (Q) Am I correct in this assumption that my condition is definitely improving? (A) From what?
21. (Q) (If smoking is not particularly harmful to the extent that I indulge) Is it best that I smoke a pipe or cigarettes? (A) Smoking in moderation for this body would be helpful. To excess it's very harmful. The smoking of cigarettes is better than most types.
22. (Q) Is it unwise for me to do light outdoor work like gardening?
3539-1 Page 3
(A) No, it's not unwise - but DO have these corrections made before you do very much of such, else you may have serious results.
23. We are through with this reading. Two copies to Self - (one for the physiotherapist and osteopath) Copy to Ass'n file
