EC: There is not enough blood in this body, the white blood
corpuscles are more in numbers than needs be, not enough
of the red. The blood in attempting to throw off the
inflammation in the system has caused this, hence the
anemiatized condition of the body. We find floating
lesion along the spine; especially at the 3rd, 5th
cervical, 8th, 9th and 10th dorsal, produced by the strain
on the nervous system, and muscular contraction caused
therefrom. This produces the headaches and tired, languid
feeling at times, also the vertigo, or dizzy feeling, as the
body feels the floor coming up to meet him.
All of this is produced by the condition we find in the
pelvis and lower intestines; also lesion in the lower
lumbars. Lesions at the 4th lumbar are the more severe,
hence the pain across the small of the back and through the
hips, the tired feeling to the lower limbs; aching knees.
There are no intestinal lesions, nor organic trouble in any
of the organs of the pelvis, kidneys or liver.
Simply an overtaxed nervous condition produced in the system
which was not corrected when the intestinal trouble was
removed, but affecting all the pelvic organs, producing
at times very severe pain to the whole system.

To correct this condition, the body should be rubbed
thoroughly, along the whole length of the spine, with olive
or sweet oil, rubbing the oil thoroughly into the body. This
should be done each day, preferably at night, then the body
will rest better.
Then the body should be treated daily with electrical force,
preferably such as is given with electrical massage, or
vibrator, using first the sponge, then the ball, to
thoroughly relax the whole body.
Take daily into the system Beef, Iron and Wine, or such as
is found in Wyeth's Beef Iron and Wine. This should be taken
in small doses, stopping when you find the system resists,
beginning again as soon as the system has been thoroughly
cleansed.
Do not take purgatives, relax the system with vibrator and
drink plenty of water, draining the stomach by massaging the
stomach with the hands. Rubbing the body well with the oil
will assist in correcting the action of the intestines and
lower bowels, assisting the elimination in the system.
Do this and the body will be well and strong.
Keep up the treatment until the body is improved to normal.
Keep in the open air as much as possible, especially when
the sun is shining; sun baths are good for the body, but
never let it get overheated.
Keep the mind well occupied with as pleasant things as
possible; never overtax the strength of the body in any way,
but best keep it busy.
Eat what the body calls for; more proteins at first; never
very much meat, unless game or wild meat of fowls or birds.
Do this and the body will be better.
Now do this and you will find the body will become normal
and what it is intended for, to assist others.
1 [GD's note: The stricture, clot or obstruction in the
intestines was apparently not removed by surgery as
prescribed in
294-2, when the appendix operation was
performed. In subsequent readings you will notice that
this condition bothered him the rest of his life, being
the cause of much discomfort and suffering, periodically.]
BACKGROUND
GD's note: I think this is a reading [294-3] on [
294]
which took place sometime following his appendix operation
- perhaps 1921?
