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 suggestions for help and relief of this body; answering the questions, as I ask them.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [5021].
3. As we find, there are disturbing conditions preventing the better physical functioning of this body. These have been coming on for some time. During the last period of childbirth there were adhesions caused, in the lower portion of the caecum and in the areas about the appendix. The adherence of tissue in these portions of the body causes the weakening of the body's strength, the upsetting in the digestive forces and the general disturbances producing periods of headache, the uncomfortable feelings through the abdominal area, pressures upon the circulation through the lower portions of body, the hot and cold flushes that are a part of the experience. All of these arise as disturbances.
4. In making corrections we would begin applying hot Castor Oil Packs over the whole right side, from the liver to the lower portion of the caecum, for an hour to an hour and a half each day for five days in succession. Apply an electric pad to keep the Packs warm. Each time when taking off, sponge the area with soda water and then massage thoroughly - not kneading in such a way as to cause rupture, but gradually under these stresses the adhesions may be broken up. For such a massage, we would use this combination of oils: Olive Oil (heated)...........2 ounces, Peanut Oil...................2 ounces, Lanolin (melted)...........1/4 ounce.
5. After the five-day series of the Packs leave off five

days. Then apply again for five days. On the fifth day, or the next morning, take internally at least a tablespoonful of Olive Oil. This should be taken following each five-day series of the Castor Oil Packs.
6. Then begin with osteopathic massages twice each week, with particular reference to the lumbar-sacral areas as well as the brachial center and through the cervicals; coordinating the rest with same.
7. In the matter of the diet keep away from starches and fried foods of any kind.
8. Thus we will bring better conditions for this body.
9. Ready for questions.
10. (Q) What causes acute distress in chest and heart region, particularly left side? (A) Reflex from the same conditions in the gall duct and in the area between the caecum, the liver and gall duct area.
11. (Q) What causes the left eye to tire quickly and the dark discoloration under it? (A) Pressures upon the central nervous system. As these are gradually causing greater and greater distress, more and more pressure is put upon the kidneys. Thus these effects are as reflexes from the disturbance in the kidney area; but with the applications and the cleansing of the system, then the osteopathic correction and the breaking up of the adhesions and lesions, we will bring better forces for this body. Do that. We are through with this reading. Two copies to Self (one for the D.O. of your choice - Please let us have the name and address of the one you choose.) Copy to Ass'n file " under case number for indexing (4/9/44 GD's note: See directions [which were enclosed] for preparing Castor Oil Packs.)
