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.
-
EC: Yes, we have the body [5364].
-
As we find, there are disturbing conditions which prevent the better physical functioning of the body. These, as we find, arise from not proper precautions taken as there should have been at the birth of the child. And this has left the organs of the pelvis, and especially pressures which relate to activity of the kidneys, in such a way that lesions have formed throughout the lower dorsal and through the lumbar area, causing those pressures on the locomotory centers as to make for lameness. The pressures will eventually cause a great deal of distress with kidneys and bladder and other serious troubles unless these disturbances are removed.
-
In the main in other directions, the body is very good, though to be sure, because of the hindrances in the circulation, there are irritations over various portions of the body.
-
But we would find first we would begin and each day for at least ten days, an hour each day as the body rests, apply three or four thicknesses of cotton cloth saturated with Glyco-Thymoline over the lumbar, the sacral and lower dorsal area. Let the body lie upon the face and put this pack of Glyco-Thymoline over the area. This should be nearly all the Glyco-Thymoline that the cloth will hold, just so it doesn’t soil or wet the bedclothing too much. Keep this on for an hour.
-
Then, after twelve days, resting two days in between, begin with the osteopathic adjustments. These should make for corrections throughout the lumbar, the sacral and the lower dorsal area, coordinating the upper dorsal and through the cervical area with this, taking about fifteen to sixteen treatments.
-
Should there be periods when there is greater pain, take a single cloth saturated with apple vinegar (this is not to be used until the adjustments have been made, see?). Dip this in vinegar, rinse it out and then cover same and apply to the area aching, and apply salt heat to this. These will relieve the tensions.
-
Follow through with these, rest a period of a week or ten days after the sixteen treatments, and it may be necessary to begin with Glyco-Thymoline Packs again.
-
Do use Glyco-Thymoline douches, two tablespoonsful of Glyco-Thymoline to a quart and a half of body-temperature water. Use this only in a Fountain Syringe. These will relieve those tensions and irritations and make for much better condition through the body. Do these while taking the adjustments. Do this about twice a week, see?
-
As to the diets, eat plenty of raw vegetables, especially carrots and lettuce. Do include in these all raw vegetables prepared with gelatin.
-
Not too much of hog meat, not even breakfast bacon; rarely beef, but fish, fowl and lamb in moderation, but more vegetables than meats.
-
Thus we will make better conditions for this body [5364].
-
Ready for questions.
-
(Q) What is the trouble with my nose (breathing passage) and throat? (A) These come from reflex conditions. As the corrections are made we will change the circulation here to make bettered conditions. These are reflex.
-
(Q) In which city or state in the United States should I live that would be most beneficial to my health and happiness? (A) Wherever there is the desire of the body. It is not the atmospheric or climatic but a specific disturbance. If there would be the more adaptable, live in the north, West Virginia in the summer and Florida in the winter.
