EC: We have the body here - this we have had before. There
are many changes in the physical forces in this body since
last we had same here. There are still some effects of
retraction in the physical forces of the body, especially
as has to do with the effects of those properties acting in
the form of a hypnotic to the body, and the local condition,
with existent forces in the body, which has been brought
about - in the attempt to become equalized or coordinated in
the functioning, especially the organs of the sensory and
sympathetic system are involved in same - the continual
disturbances (coming and going; not remaining severe at all
times) in the region of the vocal cords, the auditory nerves
- as in vision; the head, neck, throat and upper bronchials.
These then, as seen, are the effects of this retraction,
aided and abetted, or ALREADY with the incentive from
disturbances, as has been outlined aforetime for the body, in
the dorsal (upper) and cervical region. These are after
effects, as has been given, of old existent conditions in the
physical forces of the body. While precaution should be
taken as respecting these conditions, if there were proper
precaution taken, there needs not be so much worry about
these, for the system will adjust itself to these conditions,
and the precautions properly taken will assist the system in
bringing about the nearer normal forces for the system.
Then, we would apply a very low form of electrical forces to
the system FOLLOWING manipulations for the body, especially
of the upper dorsal and cervical regions, GIVEN
osteopathically. Well that heat (wet heat) be applied to
the body in the dorsal and cervical region before the
manipulations are given, but the manipulations should be
given while the body is still relaxed from the application of
heat.
Well, too, that each evening small quantities of mutton suet
with equal parts of spirits of camphor, sweet oil and myrrh,
be manipulated or massaged in the region of the thyroids and
about the neck, the lower portion of jaw, between eyes and
the nerves of the face. This will assist, with the other
treatments, in reducing the condition and forming that which
the system may throw off through absorption, or through the
regular eliminating system. Hence the precaution.
Be careful that the body does not get the feet wet, nor is
too much in drafts.
Beware of overloading the stomach, especially when tired.
The manipulations and the electrical vibrations, which may be
given in ANY low form, whether the Violet Ray, the Red Ray,
or the Ultra Violet Ray - but a very LOW form of same. There
will be no necessity, with these, of operations; for the
system may be made to ELIMINATE that which is as dross or ash
in the system. Ready for questions.
(Q) Why do I sometimes suffer from skin eruptions and -
(A) This same improper elimination, and - as is seen - it
comes to the UPPER circulation, or to the lower circulation,
showing there is not the proper collaboration and
coordinating of eliminations in the system. Why? From that
as has been given, retractions as have been set up in system
through the action of hypnotics to the nerve system, under
the stress as has existed in system. Body is doing well
though, considering these conditions.
(Q) What should the diet be, if any?
(A) Just beware of OVERLOADING the system. Not too much
sweets, nor yet too much of the proteins. A well balanced
diet is the better for the system; not running to the excess
in either. Keep plenty of the one and two vitamins for the
system. Equal balance between iron and potash, see? Iodine
and Potash.
Do that, as has been given, and we will find the better
conditions for this body. We are through for the present.
BACKGROUND
7/08/28 She obtained Check Physical Reading
140-26 for
earache, nerve retraction, following surgery two months ago
for Mastoiditis.
8/30/28 Her brother-in-law, Mr. [
900], wrote: "[
140] asks
that you please give her a Physical Reading and after it is
given answer following: What is cause of tonsil trouble?
Should tonsils be taken out and, if so, when? Would it be
better that another remedy than removal be put in effect.
If so, what? What is cause of gland trouble? What is remedy
for swollen and painful glands and how may I prevent this
trouble occurring? Why do I sometimes suffer from skin
eruptions and what is remedy when this comes on? How may I
prevent same? What should diet be, if any?"
REPORTS
11/14/28 She obtained dream interpretation reading
140-28 in
regard to Mastoid operation, etc.
1/03/29 She obtained Check Physical Reading
140-29.
