1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly and tell me the conditions you find at the present time. You will diagnose the case thoroughly, giving the cause of the existing conditions, also the treatment for the cure and relief of the body. You will also answer any questions relative to this body which I might ask you.
2. EC: Now, in this body, we find this very good throughout, yet there are some conditions that should be corrected, and there are some abnormal conditions in portions of the system that cause distress in the body, and with the developing of the body much of these conditions would eventually be corrected, yet nature in its correcting will, without the correction to normal forces in developing, create that condition which will leave the body under stress and strain, subject to conditions that would produce distressing conditions in the body in the years to come.
3. These conditions we find that are abnormal have to do with the cerebrospinal center and the nerve condition is impinged in portions of this center. Now these conditions then that are produced from this have to do with the functioning of the organs as are controlled by this condition.
4. Now, these are conditions as we find them in this body, [4682], we are speaking of.
5. First, we find the body in that of the developing stage, and in the first cycle.
6. In the blood supply in the body this is very good. Well balanced in coagulation and in that necessary to produce the building cellular force in the body, and the body will live to be many, many, years old. In the division in red and white blood supply, we find this near to the balance. Not as much red, however, as should be, through the plasmatic cellular force as created through this supply meets the needs of the body and stores energy, save as affected, as we shall see, in portions of the system.
7. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, in this we find the seat of the
4682-1 Page 2
troubles, producing in the system that which must be corrected, and the distress to portions of the body physically that come at times. In the 8th and 9th dorsal segment we find the impingement that affects directly the hypogastric circulation, especially that that equalizes the circulation between the liver and the kidneys, or between the hypogastric and pneumogastric circulation in the hypogastric plexus. This has been produced by trouble that has been caused in the body for some time. This segment in the 8th and 9th impinions the supply of the blood flow to this portion. Hence when the body is in that condition of equalizing the circulation that comes from trunk portion of body to the head, and to the lower extremities, the hypogastric becomes especially overtaxed and produces the extra secretions in eliminating forces in the body. Present conditions.
8. Without the removal of this pressure, we would find the condition would produce such as to make the body, in the developing, subject to the depression in the pancrean circulation, so that we would have a condition where the pancreas would be the condition that would produce distressing conditions in body. The taxation to the lower end of the body, especially that in the end of cerebrospinal nerve branches as come to the lower portion of the body, below the 9th dorsal, all of these, through the reflex condition, produced by this segment being impinioned, and gives the reaction as is seen in the locomotaries. The sympathetic nerve system only depressed through reflex conditions, these coming near the second lumbar, where we have reaction to kidneys proper in their secretions in system.
9. In the sensory organism, or sensory nerve system, these we find developing normal.
10. IN THE ORGANS OF THE BODY, in this we find the body very good. A mind that will develop toward that of the forces as should be applied in civil engineering and such natures.
11. In the organs of the sensory system, these very good.
12. Throat, lungs, bronchials, larynx, we find these very good. An extra secretion at present in the bronchials and larynx, produced by congestion from a taxing of the pneumogastric center - cold - local, and will pass with increased circulation to remove too much of the secretion produced there.
13. Digestive tract very good. Should be warned with present conditions, and until the body is adjusted properly not too much sweets for the body, save honey, which is very good for the whole system.
4682-1 Page 3
14. The stomach and digestive very good save that as the incentive as set through conditions where the action may be produced in duodenum and pancreas.
15. Liver, with cold, shows some congestion and needs be relaxed, that eliminations may be set properly and not too much taxing between the hepatic circulation. More excretory functioning through the liver and not so much through kidneys. This we will find would correct near normal, were the impingement relieved in 9th dorsal. In the hepatic circulation that condition as produces the taxing of kidneys in circulation, when it equalizes kidneys and bladder, we find overtaxed from pneumogastric center and plexus, produced by the condition in the nerve system governing the hypogastric reaction in its circulation.
16. To bring then the normal conditions to this body would be keep the body free from too much sweets, and correct by the neuropathic or osteopathic manipulation those conditions in the lower dorsal region, and in the sacral and lumbar region, that have been produced there, and we will find we will bring the normal development to this body. These should be taken carefully. Not too often, but with the developing of the body.
17. Do that.
18. (Q) How often should the treatments be taken? (A) About twice a week.
19. (Q) What causes the backwardness in getting around? (A) The taxing of the hypogastric center, producing reflex conditions, as given, through the sympathetic nerve system, to the locomotaries, or those centers in sacral plexus. This produces this taxation, or a reaction before the voluntary action of the nerve system in movement. Hence the normal movement but the reaction slow.
20. (Q) What produces the condition that causes the too frequent action of the kidneys at night? What will relieve this? (A) This we have given. That in in the 9th dorsal, where impinged, produces the pressure on hypogastric center, causing circulation to react through the kidneys rather than through the whole excretory system. Relieve by removing that producing the pressure, and give normal action in nerve supply to the body.
