GD: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions, as I ask them:
-
EC: Yes, we have the body here, [1710].
-
As we find, the general physical conditions of this body in the present are very good; but the specific conditions as related to the muscular forces in the shoulder and arm are not so good.
-
To prevent there being created scar tissue in the muscles and tendons, that would eventually become a handicap - by any periods of excess acidity or uric poisoning, turning to a rheumatic or a neuritic condition, -
-
We would have the body TAPED - on that side and shoulder.
-
To be sure, this would for the time being hinder in some of the activities, but not to such measures as to prevent the body carrying forward the general activities - save the inconvenience.
-
At least once a week, then, we would have this shoulder well BAKED, - that is, applying very hot applications and a general rubdown afterward. If it is necessary that the taping be repeated after such, then we would do this at least once each week.
-
As for osteopathic adjustments, - it is only necessary that these be made at the time that the first taping is done. Then the physiotherapy and hydrotherapy treatments, - which would be a part of the baking and the rubbing and massage, - should be sufficient to keep this in alignment.
-
As to diets and the general activities, these are very well if they are kept much in the line as has been indicated.
-
Do that.
-
Ready for questions.
-
(Q) Which shoulder should be taped? (A) The one that’s hurt!
-
(Q) What kind of taping? (A) Regular taping!
-
(Q) By the osteopath? (A) Physiotherapist would be the better.
-
(Q) What treatment should be followed to restore hair on head? (A) Eat the peelings of Irish potatoes. Eat persimmons as soon as they are in order, - even the large persimmons are very well. And massage the scalp occasionally with any good cleanser (that is, soap), and then apply a little White Vaseline with the tips of the finger and massage thoroughly into the scalp. This should be done two or three times a week, - that is, the Vaseline.
-
(Q) Would you suggest a good hydrotherapist in Baltimore? (A) Any good hydrotherapist.
-
(Q) Do teeth need any special attention? (A) Only the usual local attention.
-
(Q) Any further advice for the body? (A) We would DO this, and then be careful not to overstrain the shoulder by sudden jerks or any activities that might cause a fall, or pulling overhead or the like.
-
We are through with this Reading.

(See extra sheet of directions [which was enclosed] for Physiotherapist. The only one we know of in Washington who might have had some contact with the Readings is Dr. A. B. Baden, Hotel Fairfax, 21st & Mass. Ave., N.W. He succeeded Dr. M. Bolkhardt, who had such wonderful success with one of our members in following the Reading suggestions. However, you might find a good one in Baltimore, since the directions don’t seem to be so very specific; just the taping, the baking, massage and rubdown, etc.)
