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. You will answer the questions, as I ask them:
-
EC: Yes.
-
Now as we find, - rather would there be the warnings respecting tendencies or weaknesses indicated with this body.
-
We find that these arise from conditions existent that have the tendency to make the body allergic to certain disturbances.
-
Hence they are partially of a glandular nature, and partially of a nervous nature.
-
Then, these are the conditions as we find them with this body, [1891] we are speaking of:
-
In a general manner conditions as we find are very good; but in the soft tissue of face, throat and head are the inclinations and tendencies for a slowed circulation, that at times produces some congestion through these areas.
-
And from this, with a general inclination of this slowed circulation, a catarrhal condition is produced in the form of congestion which arises. These then in combination tend to upset the assimilating system as related to the digestive forces, in that the conditions are allergic to certain elements, - or there are the inclinations for certain odors or certain activities to produce a disturbance at times - through sympathetic irritation to the areas indicated.
-
These weaknesses at times cause disturbance as related to the glandular activity of the eliminations through the organs of the pelvis. While these do not cause disturbance in the present, there are weaknesses and inclinations which indicate warnings that there should be brought better conditions for this body.
-
Then, as we find, - twice each week we would have a general massage as combined with the hydrotherapy treatments, with every other time the use of the VERY low form of electrical vibrations. Not the whole short wave therapy, but that which will stimulate - through the application of the electricity given through the hands of the masseur, you see; with the massage given to the head and neck, and those areas about the face, to stimulate activity to aid in throwing off, and creating a normal balance.
-
This, as combined with the general hydrotherapy as would be had from Reilly’s, as we find would be the better manner. These treatments we would have twice each week (with the electrical treatment added every other week), for a period of three to four weeks; then leave off for a period of two weeks, and then have them for two to three weeks more.
-
These as we find would eliminate tendencies, and bring bettered conditions for this body, [1891].
-
Of course, the diet should be kept normally balanced. The principal portion of at least one meal each day should consist of green, raw vegetables. At least have a combination of these in a green salad three or four times each week, if not every day. For, to the body, any general routine becomes such rote as to become disturbing to the general nervous forces of the body.
-
Do these.
-
Ready for questions.
-
We are through for the present.

Reports & Follow-up
R1. 6/17/40 [1891]‘s mother’s letter to EC:
”…Thank you for your letter regarding [1891]‘s reading. I think the diagnosis is correct. It’s perfectly true that her main trouble has been in her nose and sinus and I believe the therapy treatment would be beneficial but we shall have to wait to take it in the fall because [1891] has a paid job at the Fair where she works every day in the week and four performances a day. She’s studying for the drama and she is in a show there. So she couldn’t possibly spare the time at present but will do so later. I’m sorry I cannot get down for the Congress. All good wishes to you. I hope our paths will meet soon…”
R2. 7/14/40 [1891]‘s mother’s letter to EC:
”…Enclosed is the blank which you sent me. The answers I inserted are as near as I could correctly analyze the subject. I shall take up the matter of treatments for [1891] when she finishes her job which allows no time for any treatments at present. She treats herself with an oil inserted up the nose which Dr. Brandon [Brandon? - M.D.?] advised sometime ago.
“Thank you for your letter…”
R3. 7/14/40 [1891]‘s mother’s reply to Individual Case Report questions:
- In your opinion did the analysis of the Reading cover the condition? “Yes, partly.”
- Give symptoms of condition described correctly? “The part about the clogging of the passages in the nose and antrum.”
- What was the physician’s analysis of this condition? “Similiar to yours.”
- Describe the extent to which improvements have resulted. “The hydrotherapy treatments could not be taken now because [1891] has a job at the Fair every day in the week from 10:30 A.M. until 7:30 P.M. When she finishes she can take the treatments…”
