1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, giving the cause of the existing conditions, with suggestions for the cure and relief of same.

2. EC: Now, we find the general conditions of this body much improved throughout. There are still some conditions that bring distress at times to the body. This is still some of the exaggerated conditions as are produced through the lower portion of the digestive system, and in the mesenteric system, for the strain in the cerebro-spinal centers where distress was caused by segmentation in the centers, these nerves and tissues have responded entirely to the condition. Hence there are at times the incentives through the distraughtness of the assimilations; the contraction shows we have across the upper part of the sacral a dull, leadened achey feeling. The resistance in the body, apparently, gives way, the body feels tired and worn. This, we see, purely reflex condition. for this produces flushes of nerve retraction and of circulation.

3. We would, then, to overcome these conditions, continue with those treatments that will assist the body in gaining its equilibrium. Not necessary that these be given so often. Once each week we find, if the body is given the thorough treatment of the osteopathic over whole system, and stimulations especially in those centers in those ganglions [ganglia] where there has been disturbance; the lumbar, the lower dorsal, and this will give the incentive to the system.

4. We would take those salines that will keep the perfect eliminations in the intestinal tract. We will find these would be well: Half a teaspoonful to three-fourths teaspoonful plain Phosphate of Soda taken before meal; that is before breakfast. Added to this, we would give two drops of Syrup of Sarsaparilla and one drop, occasionally, not taken each time, of Oil of Turp. This we find will also assist in eliminating the toxins and in eliminating the inflammations as produced by toxins in the mesenteric system. This will also stimulate the secretions properly, giving the better action to all of the assimilating effects in digestive system, clarifying in the lacteal ducts, in the whole system, and assisting body to regain its equilibrium.

5. Taking the osteopathic forces then once each week, but a thorough treatment.

6. Do that.

7. We are through for the present.
