TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [99]. Now, we find those conditions as cause distress with this body are both of a specific and a reflex nature, and have to do with disturbances as are produced in the nerve system and its relation to functioning organs as disturbed thereby.
2. These, then, are conditions as we find with this body, [99] we are speaking of. First:
3. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this we find sufficient in quantity, but lacking in quality, produced by the poor or the disturbed eliminations as are caused in the system. Hence the pressure as is produced at times, and the overtaxation especially to the head, wherein dizziness and the attending conditions result. The constituents of the blood stream itself show a lack of a character of white blood supply, and an over abundance of SOME characters in the red blood supply; yet those elements that should act as eliminants in the blood are absent in some character in the system. The resultant condition is that as is experienced in the spleen and in the right lobe of liver, and the resultant condition of this is the disturbances as are produced in the upper hepatic circulation. This being cold, or low in activity.
4. IN THE NERVE SYSTEMS, as has been indicated from this condition, we find much that causes distress in the body. In times back there existed that in the system from that of an accident, as well as the resultant condition of a congestion, that was classified as a disturbance with the nerve supply of the body, that which has caused a lesion in the secondary cardiac plexus. This NOT the result of the disturbance in the active forces in blood, but rather of the impulses as are regulated from the dorsal region, in the 3rd and 4th plexus, and these cause those distresses as produced by the hindered blood supply, and the mucus as is produced in throat, bronchials, and larynx, and the tendency of this little cough that appears, as well as the inflammation about the ends where the hypogastric and pneumogastric plexus enters the carotid (?) acid action in the forces of the 3rd ventricles. These produce, then, to the brain forces, of the this overflow as occurs at times, and the dizziness as a net result with conditions as seen in blood supply. In the active forces of the sympathetic system with these, we find resultant conditions produced in the digestive system through the cardiac end of stomach proper. Hence the fullness as occurs at times after eating, and the tendency of the body to belch, or gas forming in the cardiac end. While the conditions as have been described for the spleen and the liver produce a condition in the pyloric end, not a stomach trouble - but a disorder produced by nerve impulse from these conditions existent in the plexus as given.
5. IN FUNCTIONING OF ORGANS, in functioning of organs, brain forces nominally very good. Sympathetic system as related to the sensory organism show the distresses from the conditions produced in the ventricle itself, in 2nd to 3rd forces. These produce this humming in the ears, the tendency for the body to stutter, or to have to think before words are spoken, and the reflexes in the eye. In throat and bronchials and lungs, conditions as given. Heart's action, as referred to from that of the blood supply - but no organic conditions. The digestive system functioning through and under the stresses of those conditions as produced both in pyloric and in cardiac end of stomach. Stomach engorged to some extent, as would be indicated from a spleenic condition. The digestive system below the diaphragm, or through the jejunum, there is seen an over acid force, as indicated in the action of the ascending colon. Hence the tendency of body at times to produce too much eliminations through the lower hepatic circulation, or through the functioning of the kidneys proper, or without this condition or suppression of same producing those of the reflexes as is seen through the activity of uric acid in the blood stream, as indicated from the condition in the plexus as govern locomotion to the extremities. Hence we have a condition where slowed circulation in extremities, the acid condition in stomach or lower intestines, produced by improper reflexes and a specific condition existent in the upper dorsal region, with sympathetic forces to the nerve supply in the throat and bronchials, and that tendency of the system to become DORMANT in reaction.
6. To meet the needs of the conditions as we find them at this time:
7. We would first rest where there will be EASY surroundings for the temperament of the body; preferably not too high above sea level. We would also begin with those corrections of the condition existent in the dorsal and upper cervical region. These we would prefer corrected through those vibrations in osteopathic manipulation AND adjustment.
8. As for the conditions in the system as related to that necessary for the correct vibrations in the blood and its active force, other than the attributary to same from improper impulse, we would use these as medicinal properties. Prepare as this: Take for the carrier, Wild Cherry Bark 3 ounces to 16 ounces of distilled or rain water. Reduce by slow boiling to 1/2 the quantity. Strain, then add:

   Simple Syrup.........................2 ounces,
Compound Syrup of Sarsaparilla.......1 ounce,
Tincture of Elixir of Stillingia...1/4 ounce,
Elixir Calisaya....................1/4 ounce,
10% solution Iodide of Potassium....40 minims,
Tincture of Capsici..................2 minims.

   These active forces, as are seen, are with the cardiac reactions in system, as well as those of the pulmonary forces, and will reduce that tendency of the body to secrete too much of those conditions as cause disturbances through the bronchials.
9. We would also use those re-vibratory forces as are seen in those of the deep therapy in the action of electrical vibration, which are produced in what may be termed the reversed coil, or that that vibrates to a point and then reverses itself, in deep therapy. This should not be given, though, more than once each week.
10. Do that, for at least two to two and a half weeks. Then we would give further instructions for this body.
11. We are through for the present.
