Time of Reading 11:00 to 11:10 A. M. Eastern War Time. New York City.
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, [3608]. As we find, there are many disturbances and yet the body in the main is on the improve.
3. We would not alter a great deal any of the administrations being made. We would merely add a few changes necessary.
4. When the body is able to bear its weight upon both limbs, these should be made to be nearly normal in the balance. For the variations in the length of the limbs has much to do with the pressures on the structural portion from the lumbar axis and the pelvic bone. We would add sufficient height to the left shoe as to cause an equal balance.
5. In the knee where corrective agencies have been applied, do not as yet rest too much weight on the limb without proper support.
6. We would here add a massage, after each hydrotherapy treatment, for keeping the system purified, using table salt, (preferably iodized) saturated with pure apple vinegar. Don't rub so hard as to break the skin in the joint itself, but so that the body will absorb all that it will. This will help strengthen the tendons and muscles and give better elasticity, as well as aiding the general body.
7. Also following each hydrotherapy treatment, we would massage especially the feet, the knees, the hip, along the spine across on either side, more then directly to the spinal column itself, using an equal combination of Olive Oil (heated) and Tincture of Myrrh.
8. In the diet do add to the body those foods especially that grow under the ground. For this particular body,
3608-1 Page 2
peanuts would be very good - as would the oyster plant or such vegetables as the rutabaga, potatoes, of all kinds, beets, onions and all that grow under the ground - these cooked as well as those that may be eaten raw. What is needed is the vibration or the radiation from ground, earth, soil in the body - even a little sand or dirt taken would be well for this body. While there should not be used that which is soiled by an excesses, but that which is in the sunlight, sand close to the riverways. Just three to four to five grains - that means by weight, not just grains of sand. It would be well for this to be eaten with the food, or on the food.
9. Ready for questions.
10. (Q) Should I try to walk by using a cane? (A) Not yet - not until there has been at least two or three more treatments, adding the character of massage indicated.
11. (Q) Should I exercise my leg? (A) Well to exercise it but do have the balance created in the limbs before there is too much exercise of any kind in walking.
12. (Q) How much of a lift is suggested inasmuch as the left leg is 1-3/4 inches shorter than the right leg? (A) That sufficient to make an equal balance, so that gradually with the hydrotherapy and the character of massages there may give stamina to the muscles and tendons, especially in the knees and in the feet, that these may be kept so that there will be a coordination in the circulation through the lower extremities.
13. (Q) Is my heart in good condition? (A) It'll be in better condition if we will get this balance and keep the better diet and the activities indicated. Not that these are the only foods the body should eat, but these should be oft in the diet.
14. (Q) Is an operation on the leg necessary? (A) Not under the present conditions, unless you have an accident by stumbling over something - it should not be necessary for operative measures.
15. (Q) Am I a bleeder? (A) Not yet.
