1. GC: you will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly and tell me the conditions you find at the present time. You will diagnose the case thoroughly, giving the cause of the existing conditions, also the treatments for the cure and relief of the body.
2. EC: Now we find this body is very good throughout, yet there are some disturbances in the body that bring distress to the body, and these conditions that produce this seem to change from time to time, for the effect is the shift from one of the functioning portions of the body to another as the disturbance produces its effect in the system by the change in the cycle of the functioning of organs. The condition has more to do with the eliminations in the body. Hence the system is disturbed through the circulation, blood supply, the circulation lymphatic supply, the circulation in nerve supply and the change in conditions is an effect of the real condition to be met.
3. Now these are conditions as we find them in this body, [3794] we are speaking of. First:
4. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, we find this changes from time to time. We find there are times and conditions when the blood seems overcharged with the drosses or sediments of the system. Again the appearance is as of an overcharged white blood force, with a lack of the red blood to rebuild, and the system apparently then becomes choked or clogged in the capillary circulation, and the system seems to be unable to eliminate, or to assimilate, any properties taken therein. Loss of appetite, suppression of the functioning of the system, easy to take cold. These are merely symptoms of condition under various times.
5. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, we find the system very good in most conditions, yet there are times when the whole body, apparently, is at high tension when the centers that are affected by the blood conditions show their reaction. These centers especially that show this condition are the 2nd lumbar plexus, the 10th dorsal plexus, the 2nd dorsal plexus, when the body feels the tired achy feeling through the portions of the body that are controlled in its
3794-1 Page 2
functioning by these plexus centers. In the sympathetic system these become overcharged at times, and the whole body seems to be unable to prevent the over heating of the body, the insomnia that comes at times through these plexuses. All these conditions we find come from a specific condition in the body.
6. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS, brain forces and centers very good.
7. Organs of the sensory system show the taxation and strain under which the body labors, though no specific condition other than the strain as produced and the attempt of the physical forces to meet the needs of the functioning organ. These, as we see, produce full centers about the distributing center to each functioning organs of sensory system from the central plexus in cerebrospinal and sympathetic connection to same.
8. Throat and lungs, bronchials and larynx very good, save at such times with the overtaxing of the blood supply in the body brings and produces too much of the poisons as are not eliminated properly through the lungs, when there is that depression as comes to the body through this condition, and the easily susceptible condition of congestion and cold bring rather mental distress than a physical condition.
9. Digestive tract not so good as it might be, for the pneumogastric and hypogastric plexus both become involved in the condition as is produced in the small intestinal tract, where we have the seat of the trouble as is produced throughout the whole body, for there we see, with the thinning of the wall of the intestinal tract, poisons or toxins are absorbed in the system. Hence the condition in circulation, the condition in the functioning of the organs in preventing the proper assimilation, and the proper eliminations, and the emunctories become involved, which overtaxes all hypogastric connections in the hepatic circulation. Hence the taxing of the liver at times, the tendency for the body to suffer from intestinal disturbances. The kidneys give too much of the functionings, and the acid and the uric forces as is carried back into the system producing these conditions. The taking into the system of properties to keep the portion of the body functioning has assisted, yet only excited the functioning organs and not reached that producing the troubles.
10. To give then the relief necessary to the body, we would take these properties in the system and strengthen by osteopathic manipulation those centers in the cerebrospinal system that control conditions in the body. That is, the lumbar plexus, the lower dorsal and upper dorsal plexuses,
3794-1 Page 3
stimulated by osteopathic treatments. Deep manipulation. Taking at the same time these properties in the system: Tincture of Valerian.................2 ounces, Fluid Extract Stillingia...........1/2 ounce, Elixia Calisaya......................3 ounces, Iodide of Potassium.................20 grains, Bromide of Potassium................15 grains, Oil of Pepperment....................3 minims, Sufficient simple syrup to make.....11 ounces.
11. The dose would be teaspoonful four times each day, before meals and before retiring. Take the osteopathic treatments at the same time as the medicinal properties are being taken. These should be taken every other day. By the time all of the medicinal properties have been taken there will have been sufficient of the osteopathic treatments to have adjusted the system so that the normal functioning of the body will have been set and corrected.
12. Do that. [3794]
