Time of Reading 3:15 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., Va. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, and those conditions as surround same. Now, we find the body very good physically in many respects. There are conditions that at times cause disturbances in the physical forces, that with the correction of same in the present will prevent greater distressed, or their creating - through the disturbances produced - those conditions that would become constitutional, or of such functional disorders as to produce conditions hard to be dealt with.

2. These conditions we find, while partially hidden in the system, the EFFECTS that are produced are VERY evident, and more often have the EFFECTS - rather than the cause - been classed as the disturbing conditions.

3. These, then, are the conditions as we find them with this body, [4452] we are speaking of, present in this room:

4. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this is very good at most periods, but during those conditions - as when distresses are produced in the functioning organs - we would find the blood ladened with those toxic forces that indicate the poor elimination, and the ineffective conditions in the functioning of organs of digestion - especially the liver. These conditions, then, produce at such periods a disorder in the hepatic circulation, as to bring about those effects in the circulation as to cause an overflow of same to the upper portion of the head, and at such periods the feet or lower limbs - from the waist line, mostly, downward - would be found to be BELOW normal in circulation, or cold, tendency to clamminess, affecting directly the central circulation.

5. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, here we find indications of conditions that are contributory to the disorders that are evidenced at times; not the whole cause, but contributing to the disorders; for when the disturbances so affect nerve centers as to cause tautness in the upper plexuses - especially those from the diaphragm region upward - we find

4452-1 Page 2

they contribute to the disorder, affecting the bronchi, the throat, the nasal cavities, even the soft tissue in face, in these portions where the circulation - being over abundant or slow in its activity - leaves more of drosses in system. Hence in this manner contributing to the disorders. These may be seen more specific in the 4th and 5th dorsal plexus and in the 5th and 3rd cervical plexus.

6. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF ORGANS THEMSELVES, brain forces are very good, save when there is - as it were - a disturbance to the circulation, as to make circulation through brain forces not as normal as normally. This leaves a dullness, an incapacitated force - as of sleeplessness; at other periods as if the body drugged, and the tendency towards dormancy.

7. In the throat, bronchi, and in circulation to the head:

8. Here, as indicated - when toxic forces and torpidity of liver from same force the circulation - we have the resultant effect of congestion in head, with headaches - especially from the top of ear upward, through the eye, in the nasal cavity - the jaws even themselves at times aching across the antrum region. These are as a RESULT of the disturbance in the CIRCULATION, and a COUNTER-irritation in nerve plexus.

9. Throat - very good. Bronchi - only disturbed under the distresses as produced.

10. Heart's action near normal, except when there are overcharges in the system - when it may either be slowed in its circulation (or heart beat) or increased, dependent upon the mental or nerve reaction in the body.

11. No organic disturbance in lungs, throat or heart's action.

12. Digestive system - when there are the effects of the disturbance, especially indicated in the caecum region, here we find toxic forces forming gases and pressures in the region produce then the activity of regurgitation in the jejunum. This forming gas produces, then, such as little or no digestion takes place. This gas also disturbs the liver in its functioning at such periods, this becoming torpid, the activity of same is reduced in the secretive functioning. The pressures that are produced in the hepatic circulation at times make rather for the lack of functioning in the kidneys, and the activities of same are decreased. The WARNINGS are as of this condition producing either such a cold hepatic circulation as to cause kidney disorder, or of gallstones forming.

13. In the meeting, then, of the needs of the conditions - or to clarify system in such a manner as to rid the body of

4452-1 Page 3

these tendencies:

14. There is more than one portion to be considered UNDER the stresses that have been produced in the body. First that of the toxemia that forms in the colon itself, especially in the caecum area. Also that effect that HAS been produced in the nerve centers, so that IMPULSES are not ALWAYS normal. Again the disturbance that has been produced in the antrum, or in the face circulation, so that with the clarifying of system let those properties that will make for a normalcy in reactions be produced throughout.

15. The better condition, as we would find, for the toxemia, would be the use of colonic irrigations, following same with those intestinal antiseptics as to produce a NORMAL circulation, especially in the lymph and the emunctories of the torso of the body; correcting - in an osteopathic or chiropractic manner - those centers in the dorsal and cervical region, that no impingements are present; using that antiseptic in the nasal and throat - not healing, but allowing the forces in nature itself to correct same by the proper circulation being set up in the body.

16. We would take the colonic irrigations at least once each ten days, until five are taken.

17. We would have corrections at least once each five days, with a GENERAL treatment in between.

18. We would use the intestinal antiseptic at least three times each week. This would be the Glyco-Thymoline - three to five drops in water, taken into the system.

19. That antiseptic for the nasal cavity and throat, and the antrum, would be the inhalation or gas from the inhalant that has been given as an antiseptic.

20. Do that, and we will relieve the body of these disorders, as we find them. Ready for questions.

21. (Q) Is there anything wrong with the eyes that would cause this condition? (A) The correction of conditions in the dorsal and the cervical will aid in correcting disorders that have been called eye disorders. The IRRITATIONS in circulation contribute, but NOT causes.

22. (Q) What is the cause of a weight on the nose? (A) This, as has been described, the circulation too slow through these portions of the system, and this causes a pressure. The same as a small particle in teeth appear as large, on account of pressure to nerves.

23. (Q) Is there anything wrong with the teeth? (A) No. Do as has been given. We will clarify the conditions that

produce disorders for this body. We are through for the present. Two copies to Self Copy to Ass'n office " " Research Department " " Cayce Hospital
