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 - it's cold!
3. Yes, we have the body here, [3679].
4. As we find, there are many conditions in the physical forces that are very good with this body. Yet there are disturbances, which at times upset the whole physical organism. These are physical expressions reflexing from a subluxation which has long existed in this body. While this has been of a minor nature, there will be found a definite lesion between the 5th and 6th dorsal centers. With this removed, and then measures taken to aid the liver and gall duct to react to the impulses of the circulation and the reflex action from cerebrospinal and sympathetic nerve system to the area from the ganglia at this center, we would find much better conditions for this body.
5. These, then, are the manners in which we would begin the applications:
6. First we would begin applying Castor Oil Packs for an hour and a half, twice each day, for at least three days in succession each week, over the liver and the gall duct area. Saturate three to four thicknesses of old flannel with the Castor Oil and apply to the liver and gall duct area, extending to the caecum area. Apply it warm and then use an electric pad to retain the heat - just so it is not too uncomfortable. Do this for three days - the same three days each week.
7. At the end of the three days, begin to take internally small doses of Olive Oil; about a teaspoonful three to four to five times each day. For, if this is in the beginning causes belching or regurgitation reduce the quantity and
3679-1 Page 2
keep on taking it, at least every other hour during the waking state.
8. The next week have the Castor Oil Packs again, twice each day for the three days.
9. Keep up the Olive Oil until there have been thorough eliminations and until there are indications that there has been a draining of the gall duct area.
10. Then have at least eight to ten osteopathic treatments, with particular reference to the 5th and 6th dorsal centers, coordinating the 3rd cervical, 9th dorsal, and the sacral and lumbar axis.
11. Do these and we should bring better conditions for the body.
12. After eight to ten osteopathic adjustments have been made, then empty or drain the gall duct osteopathically.
13. In the matter of the diet - through the period that there is the draining, we would have particularly semi-solid or semi-liquid foods, preferably. Then a great deal of raw vegetables, prepared in many different ways, oft prepared with gelatin. Not too much meats, and no fats; not even butter during the first two to three series of these treatments. Soups and broths, fish, fowl and lamb, but never any foods fried.
14. Ready for questions.
15. (Q) Has some minor dislocation in the spinal column gradually caused the auditory nerves to become paralyzed? (A) This is rather a prolapsus of the Eustachian tube, but with the corrections in the dorsal area, setting up better drainages in the gall duct and liver area, we should find these corrections aiding the disturbances in the ear. It would be well, when the corrections or drainages are set up, that the Eustachian tube also be corrected osteopathically.
16. (Q) What causes the very pronounced snap, or cracking noise at the base of skull whenever the head is turned to either the right or left? (A) This comes from the disturbance in the lower dorsal or at the 5th and 6th dorsal, which does not coordinate with the 3rd cervical centers.
17. (Q) How can relief be obtained from the almost constant pain from one or two vertebra located between the shoulder blades? (A) By the corrections to set up drainages for the conditions that are causing neuritic reactions in nerves and muscles.
18. (Q) Are nerves inflamed or bone infected in nasal region? (A) This is a sinus disorder from a catarrhal condition that causes the prolapsus.
3679-1 Page 3
Do these things and we will have better conditions for this body. The head noises will be relieved and drainages will be set up in the liver and gall duct so that areas throughout the body will be improved. That causing the gradual loss of hearing arises from a liver and gall duct disturbance.
