1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also the treatment for the cure and relief of this body. You will answer any questions which I might ask you regarding same.
2. EC: We have have the body here.
3. Now we find with the physical forces of this body there are those conditions of which the body had best be warned concerning, rather than so much correction of conditions - though, as is seen, these conditions are at times already producing forms of distress to the body. These are of minor natures at present, yet - were these allowed to get a hold on the system in such a way and manner that tissue becomes involved direct, rather than reflex - there would be those conditions that would cause GREATER distresses to the body.
4. These, then, are the conditions as we find them with this body, Mrs. [4511], we are speaking of, present in this room. First:
5. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this we find very good in the elemental and in the replenishing manner, yet in the eliminations - or in that manner in which the blood is strained, as it were, or relieved of impurities that are carried to eliminating portions of the system - were these cleansed more thoroughly, we would not find the resultant condition of strained forces in the muscular tissue in and about the plexus that governs the upper portion of body through brachial plexus. Arms, shoulders, upper portion of spine, ACHE at times, causing distress along the spine, even, too, on the right side near the kidney. This then, as is seen, is the lack of the blood being thoroughly relieved of those conditions that should be eliminated from same. Why then would these portions become involved? In the distribution of forces for the replenishing of the system, we find those active forces in muscular tissue and in the
4511-1 Page 2
nerve centers are at the distributing points. Hence the upper secondary cardiac plexus - just above same - we find the brachial plexus. So then - with the change of blood flow, as is seen, to the upper portion of the body, as it flows through the organs of the heart and lungs, and is given the incentives for the distributing forces for the upbuilding of the upper portion of system - coming to the head, shoulders, neck, arms - we find here the centers show there has been left, as it were, those particles in the tissue that causes this tendency toward a neurasthenic, or a neurotic condition, or that of a nerve contraction through muscular tissue, producing this condition. This, as we see, comes from two reasons: The eliminations through the liver and through the kidneys being deflected by a cold hepatic circulation, this in turn being produced by pressure - as is seen - on the lower portion of the solar plexus nerve. Hence at times we find, down the left side toward the hip, the feeling of a tingling - especially if the body has walked considerably and then rests, as of sleep. This is a pressure to the lower portion of the plexus as governs the locomotion. This, then, is as the effect - as given - of lack of pure eliminations from blood stream, or - as may be called, technically - the metabolism and katabolism of the system becoming unbalanced.
6. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, here we find reflexes of those conditions existent in eliminations, and - as has been given - these are not severe at present, but unless corrections are made, and the proper eliminations set up, this continuation of a disturbance in the blood supply and in the nerve system would gradually bring about those conditions that would produce neuritis, or the effects of what is termed rheumatic effects - for, with CONGESTION - were it to happen - to the lower portion of body, kidneys become congested in any manner, the effect of the acid as would be thrown back in system would be detrimental.
7. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS OF THE BODY, brain forces very good. Discernment - discrimination - above the normal.
8. The effects of a hindered elimination show through the sensory system. Not as defects to the vision, speech, nasal or any of the portions of body through which there is functioning of the sensory organs; yet there is seen the effects of these in the tendency of the body to - as it were - force voluntary reaction to become involuntary, see?
9. In lungs, bronchials, throat - these are very good. No organic disturbance.
4511-1 Page 3
10. Heart's forces - only a reflex of conditions existent in an elimination that is disturbed, and where katabolism and metabolism - BOTH - are existent, the effects come to the reaction of nerve centers.
11. The digestive system is rather that of a NERVE indigestion that occurs, and not indigestion from the gastric juices of digestive system.
12. The hepatic circulation, the liver, the kidneys, the spleen - these, ORGANICALLY, show disturbance - by the change as is effective between the liver and kidneys in forcing internal eliminations; for, as is seen, the liver and kidneys are as the poles of the body - one acting as the negative, the other as the positive. When disturbances exist between these poles there is seen, as it were, short circuit. Hence there is thrown into the system, then, those poisons that should be eliminated. These, as seen, find lodgement in centers where distributing forces, or where centers carry - as it were - the supply back to the body for elimination.
13. Capillary circulation, lymphatic circulation, very good - for the body responds to reaction; yet disturbances occur through these at times.
14. Organs of the pelvis and intestinal digestion - these, under the existent conditions, are better than would NORMALLY be seen.
15. Now, the condition that the body should be warned concerning, is as to the continuation of these improper eliminations and disturbances as occur.
16. To rid the body of these, and to bring the body to the perfect condition in elimination, would be to add that vibration to the body that sets the metabolism and katabolism of the body near to normal vibration, giving to the solar plexus ITS proper reaction, giving to the blood supply a clear stream - as it were - and aiding the liver, the kidneys, in their normal functioning for the body.
17. Use then, each day, that electrically driven vibrator for the body that will set anew the internal and external action of nerve and blood supply through the centers along the cerebrospinal system, see? using the hard applicator - the ball preferred, see?
18. Applying every second day, when the body rests - either in afternoon or evening - those vibratory forces as would be found in the Radio-Active Appliance, applying the applicator to the body alternately to left and right wrist, to left and right ankle, see? using plenty of ice in the crock when applicator is attached, see? seeing that connections are in proper shape and polished well before they are applied -
4511-1 Page 4
applying the positive to the ankle first, and to the wrist last - the negative, see?
19. Do that. Ready for questions.
20. (Q) What causes the pain in the right leg? (A) This produced from that pressure on the locomotary center from the improper eliminations, and the muscular tissue finds the contraction - produced by nerve impulse, see?
21. (Q) What will relieve this? (A) The appliance of the vibratory forces in this particular center along the sacral, see? will relieve this, by starting the circulation and eliminations in their proper course through the body. See?
22. (Q) Is there anything out of place in the knee? (A) No. Only the strained muscular forces that are hindered - by the conditions existent in the body - from carrying the full healing forces to the injured portion of tissue. No portion is out of place or in that way that will not correct itself, with the proper blood supply and nerve energy centered to same from the radiating center in the sacral region that will be increased and brought to normal by this application of the vibratory forces, see?
23. (Q) Why do the hands swell so? (A) This same as is seen in the brachial center - we find the radiation from same is such that the circulation does not return to body as promptly as it should. Hence the tendency to fill up, see? and swelling ensues from same.
24. (Q) Should any more of the teeth be removed? (A) Rather use the local applications for corrections of conditions, for this is not a SOURCE of supply of poisons, but RATHER a STORAGE of the poisons by improper eliminations. With local applications, and with corrections of eliminations, these conditions will disappear.
25. (Q) What applications should be used? (A) Those as found in Ipsab, massaging the gums well with this solution at least twice each week, cleansing mouth with pure water after the use of same. There are some teeth that need local attention by the dental surgeon. Do that. Those on the left side, near the lower molar, see?
26. (Q) Should the body take any medicinal properties along with the electrical treatments? for these eliminations? (A) Only that which will keep the intestinal tract clear, as would be found in mild cathartic - such as is found in the Petrolagar - that of the non-acid kind, see?
27. (Q) How often should the vibrator be used, and for how long at a time? (A) Every day, and used for at least twenty to thirty
4511-1 Page 5
minutes, see? used along each center in the cerebrospinal system. This is best applied just before the body retires, as the body will rest well from same.
28. (Q) Can the body use this itself, or will it have to be done by an expert? (A) The body may apply this itself, or HAVE applied to itself by one that is near the body. Not necessarily an expert. Only follow out the cerebrospinal centers, and the vibrator will FIND OUT each center when it is found, see?
29. GC: That is all the questions.
30. EC: The Petrolagar may be taken when NECESSARY for the proper eliminations to be set up, see? so this may be taken twice to three times each day until the system shows the full action from the agar, see? Then this may be taken one spoonful a day. The body should find perfect elimination set up in thirty to sixty days, following these suggestions given. No other properties medicinal NEEDS be taken by the body, if these are carried out properly.
31. Do that. We are through for the present.
