1. EC: Yes, we have the body [3747], and those conditions physically as affect the body. We find there is an incapacitation produced by pressures in the cerebrospinal system, which causes a form of inertia, or inability of the nerve forces to function in their proper way and manner. These are brought about by a deterioration, produced by conditions that were brought in former ACTIVITIES of the body. These affect or make for a nerve exhaustion that produces a form of paresis that makes for pressures that have their reaction along the cerebrospinal system.
2. In meeting the needs, as we find for this body, these may be helped, may be aided, and in time - with consistency and persistency - may the body return to its former activities; not wholly; almost wholly, or in part.
3. First we would find it would be necessary to create those electrical vibratory forces in the system as would make for an enlivening of those centers or ganglia from which the radial forces are effective, or produce the pressures on the system, by the LOOSENING in the system - as it were - those vibratory forces that will enable those pressures to be removed by dissemination, or disintegration, into the circulatory forces as make from portions of the blood supply itself, or acting in a manner of disintegration being set in motion for those pressures and for the replenishing to be applied to the general circulatory system, as would build up those forces necessary for the proper resuscitation of these depletions in the system.
4. Prepare those in the form of the regular wet battery, or those forces in which one is nickel and the other copper. When ready to be used, both of the leads would be attached to a nickel plate at least as large as two inches in diameter, circular in form, cupped towards the edge slightly, see? and attach to the edges, not center, see? These would be attached to this plate - both leads - see? When not in use the plates are kept separate, to be sure - see? Attach, in the beginning, to that of the 3rd and 4th

dorsal plexus - see? When attached, the feet will be placed in a WARM salt solution - one to fifty - one part salt to fifty parts water - IODIZED salt, see? This would be used each evening for at least thirty minutes. Be mindful when this is used that it is not OVER used, else nausea will be a result.
5. After using in THIS center for at least seven to twelve days, we would ALTER the center to that of the 3rd and 4th CERVICAL center - see?
6. The morning following (this should be given in evenings - which would be every day, also - see?) we would have an olive oil massage over those of the locomotary centers, or extending along the whole length of the spine.
7. We would also following same (before this is taken off through the bath) use dry heat, PREFERABLY arranged so that the whole body - along the spine especially - receives same, WITH the heat on, see? This may be made in the form of a cabinet, which - when the body may lie prone - can be set over same. Small electrical globes may be attached in same, so that the heat may be raised to at least ninety to ninety-five - see? dry heat. This should be applied for three to five minutes - see?
8. Then the regular applications - that is, for the removal of same.
9. The diets will be along those lines that make for nerve BUILDING. Plenty of the green foods - as celery, salsify - not too much of the asparagus, but only those of the fresh or the green - cabbage, lentils, peas, beans, and such - these may be taken. Little or no meats, to be sure - though those that will add for nerve forces, as tripe, brains, kidneys, liver, spleen, or such, these will be beneficial to the body in small quantities. Do that. Ready for questions. We are through for the present.
