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.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here. (EC speaking in undertone) Complaining of a little headache this evening.
3. Now, we find the general physical condition of this body very good in many respects, when all are considered respecting physical forces. There are conditions existent that might be corrected in a way and manner that would give the body better control over the physical forces, and thus add to the abilities of the body physically and mentally.
4. These, then, are conditions as WE find them with this body, [4576] we are speaking of. First:
5. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this we find very good in most respects. There is shown in the physical forces that there HAS existed a high pressure, but that it is near normal at present - through the care, through the activity of the system. There are those elements showing that there are troubled conditions in the eliminations, and that drosses are carried at times back in the circulation when they should be eliminated - both through the capillary elimination and through the regular drosses of the system; for, as is understood and seen by the body itself, various elements in a physical body, while these may be eliminated through any of the channels of elimination, but for a normal functioning body they should be eliminated through their proper channels.
6. In the lower lumbars, especially, there are conditions where the capillary circulation - or the veins - show that a plethora condition exists in a greater or lesser degree, dependent upon the diet and activities of the body. This a hindered condition between the circulations in the system; that is, the changing from the arterial to venous circulation. Hence in the extremities, especially in the lower, there is seen at times distress; that is, IMPROPER

eliminations through the varied conditions produced there.
7. IN THE NERVE SUPPLY, these are fairly good; very good in some respects, for the effects even as exist in the physical manner have been retarded by the system attempting (and doing it) to bridge the conditions in the physical impulses through the various plexuses in the system; yet these very conditions corrected would bring a near normal functioning force for the body.
8. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS THEMSELVES, brain forces very good. Active in direct and indirect manner.
9. Throat, bronchials, lungs, larynx - these show the effect of conditions as have existed in a disturbed condition in the respiratory system, especially from that as has existed as respecting the pressure and the blood supply in the whole body. This, however, very good at the present time.
10. The digestion shows that at times poor assimilation and elimination takes place in the body. Deficient on account of the condition existent in the ascending colon region. Not a state entirely of prolapsus, nor of adhesion, but rather of an engorged condition, so that when the system becomes so filled the normal activity does not empty this portion of the colon in its natural exercises to eliminate or eject materials left in; then there are those reactions that cause the distress in circulation, reflex in nerve reaction, as is seen from improper digestion, or a headache (as at present) resultant from toxins forming in the body. Hence weakening the lower ganglia that give the direct impulse for the circulation upward from lower limbs. Hence the capillaries become flagged, or - as it were - engorged, from too much of the lymph with the blood, and the poor circulation resultant.
11. In the action of the kidneys and the liver, these - when the system is supercharged, as it were, or unbalanced by the existent condition from toxins - cause a fullness, and gas forming above; that is, in the pyloric end of the stomach. This produces, then, a fermentation - purely, though, a reflex condition.
12. The activities necessary, then, to overcome these conditions would be to correct osteopathically that condition existent in the lower dorsal and lumbar and sacral region, and apply the ultra Violet Ray to the body to replenish the nerve energy; revivify the electronic energy in the nerve impulses, and reaction to these would bring the better conditions for the body.
13. As for those conditions along the limbs, the salt rum would be the better rub for these.
14. The exercises physically - plenty of BENDING exercise

that gets the head below the waist line. Any such exercise, begun moderately, would give better reaction for this body. Do that.
15. We would take at least twenty (20) such adjustments. Apply the wet heat to the spine before the adjustments are made; preferably those of the alkaline packs; that is, water that is exceedingly alkaline in reaction heated as high as the body can well stand and applied along the spine before adjustments and manipulations are given.
16. The rays as would be given electrically would be once to twice a week.
17. After these have been applied consistently and persistently we will find a great deal better and a great deal nearer normal reaction to the body.
18. Do not over eat of meats nor of sweets.
19. We are through for the present.
