1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [4538]. Now, as we find, there are abnormal conditions. Some of these are minor in their nature at present; some are more severe, and while they do not cause such a GREAT inconvenience to the physical functioning in the present, unless there are corrections made they must become - or would become - serious conditions.
2. These, as we find, have to do with the glands of the body, and these suffer from the lack of the balancing of elements necessary in a normal body to produce normal functioning. Then the portions are from the manner in which assimilations are taking place, the manner of diet that has been followed, and the mental worries added to same.
3. These, then, are the conditions as we find them with this body, [4538] we are speaking of:
4. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, the elements show the lack of proper metabolism through the system. The indications in the manner of the pulsations of the heart's action also show this, though we do not find an ORGANIC heart disturbance.
5. IN THE NERVOUS SYSTEM, these are rather a complication of conditions as are affecting the nervous system, or as are affecting the system through the conditions existent in the cerebrospinal and sympathetic. Hence we see causes from two different sources in this respect, at least. In the lumbar and sacral region the nervous system shows the greater distress from those conditions, in which impingements prevent the normal impulses to the system. Also in the nerve forces as in the ORGANS showing distress, the glands above or about the kidneys - as well as the glands of genitation. These are showing the effects of the mental worries of the body, as well as an unbalancing of the elements necessary for proper reactions of the glands THROUGHOUT the body in their functioning; these affecting the endreanal [adrenal], as well as the thyroids, as WELL as those of the emunctories through the torso or digestive

system. Hence we have dull, heavy pains at times, and catching pains at others, across the small of the back and just below the diaphragm area; shortness of breath at times with little exercise; heaviness in the feet, tendency for dull headaches throughout the day - which may be at times relieved of mornings, and at others be heaviness and gradually work off as the exercises of the body and the activities enable the body to use more of the reserve energy. At other times the body finds that when it does relax, if there are not acute pains, it is ready to drop off - as it were - with FLITFUL sleeps; insomnia at times, waking during the nights, with tendency of clamminess - at others hot and cold flushes. These are but INDICATIONS of the disorders, as has been indicated.
6. In meeting the needs of the conditions in the present, we would find that we would - at least once each day - take an adjustment in the cerebrospinal system itself. Now these would be varied at times, and should N OT be attempted to ALL be MADE at ONCE! but a PORTION of an adjustment, especially in the lumbar and lower dorsal area, but this made EVERY DAY for at least twelve to sixteen adjustments - see?
7. FOLLOWING these adjustments - and at the SAME period - take a thorough VIBRATORY treatment with an ELECTRICALLY DRIVER VIBRATOR! using the suction appliance on the spine itself. Let this run LOW, especially in the caecum and sacral regions; that is, across the front portion of body, then low down to the end of the coccyx, see? and all the way to the base of the brain. This should be given for three to eight minutes FOLLOWING the adjustment, and a massage along the spine - see?
8. We would begin also immediately taking those properties of iodine as found in Atomidine, but in SMALL doses, not over five drops twice each day - morning and evening, see. Take this for at least ten days, then rest three days, then take for another period of ten days. See?
9. Let the diet be along THIS line, though it may be altered to meet the needs or the circumstances for the body:
10. Mornings - citrous fruit diet, or orange juice, grapefruit or lemon taken, and a little later some toast, coffee or a CEREAL drink.
11. Noons - fruit juices (mixed fruits), then broths or soups - either of the meats or WITH vegetables, or vegetables alone, with a glass of milk or with a cereal drink again.
12. Evenings - the vegetables and a little meat; no fish or sea foods as long as the iodine is being taken, and FEW of
4538-1 Page 3
the vegetables that grow under ground.
13. Do this, and we will find that in twenty to thirty days we should have a near normal body. Ready for questions.
14. (Q) Does the condition of my teeth have anything to do with my back trouble? (A) This is rather the cause of the condition of teeth! but these SHOULD have their LOCAL attention, and where pus is indicated remove same, otherwise use those of an Ipsab rub for the gums at least twice to three times a week, and we will find these will be removed.
15. (Q) Should violet ray treatments be continued? (A) We would discontinue these, if the VIBRATION is given properly; for with the violet ray we are over stimulating the little energy left without giving the system the elements NECESSARY to replenish!
16. (Q) Would this condition be called sciatic rheumatism? (A) May be TERMED that, but it would be a very poor diagnosis for it to be called! More of a gland condition!
17. (Q) What was the original cause of my condition? (A) This would date back rather far; it is from an old illness that occurred, that UNBALANCED the system and made for toxic forces throughout the body. Do this, and we will find the conditions improving.
18. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " File " " Ass'n
