1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the time, giving the cause of the existing conditions; also the treatment for the cure and relief of this body.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here.
3. Now, we find while there are conditions that bring distress to the physical forces of this body, these met with in the proper way and manner may be corrected to such an extent as to bring the near normal functioning of the body.
4. These, then, are conditions as we find them with this body, [3887] we are speaking of. First:
5. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this we find lacking in the proper rebuilding and in the vitims [vitamins], or vitality, necessary to store much energy, other than that for normal conditions as exist; that is, there is little reserve energy. Hence the body under stress or strain, physically or mentally, soon feels fagged or tired out. The elements of blood show that these conditions arise in the nerve self, and that the basis of this comes from the lumbar region.
6. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, here we find an improper coordination in the cerebrospinal, and also in the sympathetic, system. In the sympathetic, this we find super-sensitive, as it were, to conditions of the physical body, or the body takes on - sympathetically - much of that the physical attributes of the sensory system view or experience through the contacts as made. This not an abnormality, under existent conditions, but rather the outcome of the system attempting to adjust itself by that which is contacted, and shows that, were the proper corrections made and proper vibrations set up, the system would bring about near normal conditions for the body.
7. In the cerebrospinal, this presents a different condition, for we find the organs are involved through the improper incentives as received by nerves being impinged, or where subligations prevent the proper reaction from those centers, thus bringing super action to some portions of
3887-1 Page 2
system and lack of the vitality necessary, or vital impulse, to others. These radiating, as seen, from the pelvis, bring all character of nervous reaction for the organs of digestion and assimilation. As yet these have not produced even an abnormal condition in the functioning, yet bring at periods an abnormal functioning; that is, the organs themselves - that is, the liver, the kidneys, the pancreas, the spleen, the whole hepatic circulation - have not become so involved as to produce organic conditions, nor functional conditions in the organs, save at periods, which show these are nerve impulses rather than disturbance in the organ in its reaction.
8. IN THE ORGANS OF THE BODY, brain forces are good. The nerve reaction from brain shows quick and slow impulses, as does the effect as is created by conditions existent in the nerve system as coordinating with the organs of the sensory system.
9. Throat, bronchials, lungs and larnyx, show the effect of a high strung, or high nerve, sentiment of the system (yet not organically affected), as does the digestion and the heart's action.
10. The liver and kidneys present somewhat of a different condition. While not organically disturbed, as given, yet - as given - at periods these ARE functionally disturbed. Hence we find effects of same inhibited in the organs, or the system, especially in mesenteric system. Hence that over activity or the lack of activity - both - occurring at different periods in functioning of the liver, as to the excretions from system, and as also the same exhibited in the kidneys and it's attributes.
11. The functioning nominally of the organs of pelvis are disturbed by condition existent in the lumbar region.
12. Then, to meet the needs of the conditions at the present time, we would have applied as this:
13. Use the gentle massage every other day, osteopathically given, over the whole system, until at least six such treatments are given. On the seventh to the tenth treatments, adjustments of those vertebrae in the lumbar and sacral and coccyx region should be attended to; not all at once, but in their nominal way and manner.
14. When treatments are begun, begin with the use of the Radio Active Appliance, that the body may rest nominally. Take the time, the patience, the persistence, to use same for the body; for through correction of incentives from ganglia in the nerve system - and with the proper coordination of the vibratory forces OF the body set up through that of the Radio-Active forces - we will find near
3887-1 Page 3
nominal forces brought to this body.
15. Twenty-seven to twenty-eight such treatments, osteopathically, should be given - including the gentle massage and the corrections.
16. For thirty to sixty, to ninety days, one hour each day, the application of the Radio-Active Forces should be combined with the elements of the system.
17. Do that. We are through for the present.
