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 treatment for the cure and relief for this body.
2. EC: Now we find there are some abnormal conditions with this body, and these may be corrected. While the specific conditions lie submerged, the outward manifestations of these at times show the effect as is produced by these abnormal forces manifesting through the physical of this body. These have to do with the coordination and the effect as is being produced by the lack of creating the sufficient incentive to the plasmatic cellular forces in portions of body to coordinate properly in their cycle of functioning.
3. Now, these are conditions as we find them in this body, [3837], we are speaking of, present in this room. First:
4. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this we find subnormal in quantity and quality, produced by conditions, as we shall see, in functioning in the system. In the effect as produced by this gives the lack of vitality to combat with the resistive forces necessary for the proper functioning in the system. This affecting directly then, with the condition of blood supply, the functioning of the organs as are directed through the blood stream proper. Hence the condition in heart's action, the condition in digestive system, the condition in coordinating in brain supply through the pineal gland center.
5. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, in this we find the greater seat or cause of conditions in this body, for we find in the sacral and in the lower lumbars depressions, or subligations, causing the distress as is produced in the system. Also in the upper dorsal region and in 1st and 2nd cervicals. These, we see, are produced from times back, the deflection in blood stream in nerve supply causing the deflection and the starvation, as it were, of functioning organs. The blood stream then being affected through the glands as direct the chyle in its course to create the new supply in

lacteal ducts in the intestines. Hence in this digestive system we find the stronghold, as it were, of treating the system without reaching the cause, or that producing the trouble.
6. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS THEMSELVES, in brain forces, these we find very good. Only when the depression in the 1st cervical, and through the pressure created in the subluxations in system affect directly and indirectly, or positive and reflexly through the hypogastric and pneumogastric plexuses, in their reaction to the cerebrospinal forces to brain, do we find any retraction through brain's reaction.
7. In the organs of the sensory system, we find deflections causing the stress to the organs of the sensory system, especially to the bronchials, or the vocal vibrations and to the eyes. In bronchials, throat, lungs, larynx, no organic condition save as produced by lack of blood supply to build in tissue as structural portions demand in phosphorus forces.
8. In the heart's action, this we find subnormal from quantity in blood supply.
9. Digestion, stomach we find smaller than normal, and the lower orifice of the duodenum tipped upward rather than downward. Hence the contraction as produced by the condition in 5th, 4th, 6th and 7th dorsal action with hypogastric and pneumogastric plexuses.
10. In the liver, we find this lacking in excretory and secretive forces. More from lack of that to act upon than of organic condition produced in body.
11. In the upper digestion in intestines, the greater trouble coming from those in lacteals and in region of Peyer's Patches. This producing the nausea, the trouble as comes to body from overtaxation or exertion at any time. This being then transmitted through the plexuses as given, directly to the pineal gland center.
12. In the lower intestines and through kidneys proper, the glands as show their digression from nominal development produced by pressure in the sacral and lower lumbars.
13. Then, to bring the normal conditions to this body would be to correct first those subluxations in the cerebrospinal region, relaxing and contracting the muscular tissue through vibration of the deep manipulation as used in correcting the subluxations in cerebrospinal system, and by applying those rays that come from electrical vibration, or from Sun's heat and sand, that will give clarification of blood stream in its assistance in assimilating and creating the resistive forces in body necessary to meet the needs of this body,

[3837], and with these we will find, as this progresses, necessary to take those properties that will rebuild the cellular forces. These may be given as the treatments progress with corrections for system.
14. At present the diet would be those of the nature carrying the greater rebuilding forces in blood stream, and in nerve tissue. Much then of green vegetable forces, and fish, that are necessary for the body's development. Little of those of starchy or of the heavy forces. Cereals and rough foods, or very fat meats.
15. The osteopathic vibration should be given at least every other day, until ten to 12 are taken. Then the corrections necessary for rebuilding blood and tissue and coordinating centers may be given from here. Do that first.
16. We are through for the present.
