Time of Reading … St., 3:55 to 4:05 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Mass.

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions she has submitted, as I ask them:

2. EC: Yes.

3. As we find, many conditions are very good; and there have been some helpful experiences with those corrections that have been made.

4. However, those interferences in the subluxations that have existed, exist again in the upper dorsal and through the cervical area. This has allowed for a period of return of the inflammation through the mucous membranes of the nose, as the body has become subject or allergic to certain odors or conditions.

5. The general condition, as we find, though, has changed somewhat.

6. But we would have the corrections again osteopathically in the areas indicated. It is not necessary for a great number, and not too close together; once a week should be sufficient, making SPECIFIC adjustments.

7. In the present, and in the present environs, we would prepare and use another inhalant, in this strength or combination:

8. Put this combination of ingredients in a 6 to 8 ounce bottle (colored; brown or blue bottle), with sufficiently large rubber or cork top to have 2 vents or inlets (with small glass tubes) into the vacuum or space above the solution. Keep these openings tightly corked, except when ready to use.

9. To 4 ounces of Pure Grain Alcohol (at least 90% proof), add - in the order named:

Oil of Eucalyptus…20 minims, Compound Tincture of Benzoin…15 minims, Rectified Oil of Turp…5 minims, Clarified Creosote…3 minims, Tolu in Solution…30 minims.

When ready to use, shake the solution well, then remove both small corks from the vents or openings, and inhale the fumes - not the solution but the fumes from the solution, into the nostril; also once or twice into the throat.

10. This as we find will tend to clarify this irritation, and - combined with the osteopathic corrections - remove the disturbances there.

11. Beware of sweets in the diet. Have fruits and vegetables preferably as the main portion of the diet. Not too much of those things that are of the starchy nature.

12. Keep the eliminations well.

13. Use fruits, nuts, berries of all natures or characters that are grown in the environ of the body, especially.

14. Do these and we will bring the better forces and influences for the body.

15. Where there are irritations in portions of the feet, or in the ball of the foot, we would massage same with an equal combination of Olive Oil and Tincture of Myrrh each evening when ready to retire. Heat the oil to add the myrrh. Massage this thoroughly into the soles of the feet and ESPECIALLY in that area where there is the callous condition. Of morning before putting on the hose, do the same thing; rest only a few minutes after rubbing same into the body and then put on the hose, see?

16. Do these and we may bring the better conditions for this body.

17. Ready for questions.

18. (Q) Should I refrain from drinking milk? (A) Do not drink raw milk. Not necessary to refrain from other milk, if it is desired to be taken. Malted milks, especially, are very well, if properly prepared.

19. (Q) What is condition of back? Why does it ache from standing a long time? (A) As just indicated, there have been some mis-adjustments. Hence we would have those corrections along this line, especially in the areas indicated, and also in the lumbar and sacral axis.

20. (Q) What will correct the metatarsal arch? (A) The corrections in the way as has been indicated.

21. (Q) Would you recommend special foot exercise? (A) It would be well if there would be this exercise night and morning; night before retiring - but after the massage as indicated, see; and of morning just before putting on the hose - after the massage has been given:

Stand erect (without anything on the feet, of course). Then raise the arms, gently, slowly, over the head, - directly over the head. Then gradually rise on the toes. Then, as the body relaxes or lowers itself, lower the hands also, the hands extending in front of the body. Then rock back upon the heels, with the hands extended sufficiently to strain or to exercise the bursa of the heel, or those portions of the heel AND the arch, you see, to aid in strengthening. Doing this, together WITH the massage of the properties indicated through heel and arch, and especially over the frontal portions of the foot, we will bring better conditions for same.

22. (Q) What causes the excessive mucous condition of the system? (A) Lack of the proper eliminations. But if there will be the character of diet as well as the exercises and corrections indicated, this should be corrected.

23. (Q) Can anything be done for pimples and breaking out of the skin? (A) The exercise and the diets are better than lotions or applications, see?

24. (Q) Do the wisdom teeth still need to be removed? (A) They still need some local attention. If there is the indication (as may be found) that one or more need extraction, be well to attend to same.

25. (Q) Is circulation of both systems normal now? (A) Not normal, or else we would not have those disturbances in the superficial circulation or in the extremities.

Do as we have indicated for this body.

26. We are through with this Reading.

Reports

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 7/8/39 Letter: “I am happy to report that there is an improvement since I have been using the new inhalant… I have kept the old inhalant, as it is still strong, and it was suggested that the new one be used in these environs. Would you interpret that to mean I should return to the old inhalant [in 1771-1] when in New York?

“At present my nose and sneezing doesn’t bother me so much but my eyes are still quite irritated at times. I hope this will gradually clear up.

“I shall resume treatment with Dr. Dobbins when we are in Nev York but at present can do nothing. Is there any doctor in Boston or Brockton that you know of who would give me the treatments as specified?

“I am also using the olive oil and myrrh massage and doing the exercise. That I do three times night and morning. Do you think that is sufficient? With massaging, inhaling and exercising, in addition to my regular nightly ablutions, I shall never get to bed and Auntie [1770] thinks it takes me much too long already to get ready for bed…

“The condition of my skin and excessive dryness has, I think, been taken care of so that it is now normal, and my back is so greatly improved. I am continuing the exercises as suggested in the first reading [1771-1].”

R2. 8/12/39 Aunt [1770]‘s letter: “[1771] got immediate relief from the new inhalant; says she’s hardly had a sniffle since taking it, and it’s wonderful! She looks radiantly happy.”

R3. 7/12/46 (While visiting again in Mass. after several years absence) she ordered a refill of the inhalant in 1771-3, from Meredith Drug Co. in Va. Beach, so that if she did have an occurrence of the Hay Fever while there she would have the same inhalant handy.”

R4. 7/21/51 Report in answer to questionnaire: “I had Hay Fever, seasonal from childhood, spring to frost, in varying degrees of severity - running eyes as a child but doctor said not bad enough to put me through all tests - not gasping for breath as in asthma, etc., so we didn’t do anything.

“The inhalant in the reading gave immediate relief [1771-1 and 1771-3]. I didn’t use braces again [1771-1, Par. 30-A re correcting bite.] - hadn’t used them for 7-8 years when I obtained the reading and asked the question. I wore glasses for close work occasionally, but haven’t used them now for years - not the slightest need for them. I did the foot exercises - high arches had caused callouses from standing, etc. I did the exercises, took treatments, etc., haven’t had any more trouble, callouses disappeared.

“Seasons go by without noticing the Hay Fever, then once in a while a slight touch of it - especially bad while visiting a few years ago in Denmark during haying season; I did not have the inhalant with me. It always gives relief, so since then I always have it on hand.”
