TEXT

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with further suggestions for corrective measures; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [337]; this we have had before.
3. As we find, there are many changes in the general physical forces of the body since last we had same here. While not all of the changes are for the betterment physically, many improvements have been indicated.
4. In the present we find there are those tendencies for the disturbance that has been indicated at times before, as to the liver, and the glandular forces again tending to disturb the body.
5. With the low electrical forces that were administered, combined with the increasing of the eliminations both through the superficial circulation (or the perspiratory system) and the alimentary canal, many of the poisons were eliminated.
6. Now, again, we begin to see the effect of the toxic condition. And in the present it tends to be an excessive acid reaction.
7. Hence all of those portions of the body are affected in their various cycles of activity, where there is the excess activity of the flow of the lymph circulation, - as in periods the organs of pelvis, at others the salivary glands, at others the eyes and the nasal passages, at others the disturbance through the alimentary canal. Though there are definite cycles, ordinarily termed, as the periods of a body of this nature, we find that every organ of the body manifests in much the same type of activity but varied as to its cycle. It is thus that the changes come about.
8. Now with this body, as indicated, there are excess toxic forces. These upset the digestive system, the flow of the circulation through the alimentary canal, throat, head, the eyes, the nose, nasal passages, and cause irritation to same, because of the super amount of acidity.
9. In the present we would have occasionally - once a week, or once in ten days - the hydrotherapy treatment for this body. This should include not a Dry Heat Sweat but a Fume Bath with Witchhazel. And every second to third time instead of the Witchhazel use Atomidine in the water that is forming the vapor over the body, to react with the circulation.
10. For this body, in giving the massage, include especially the abdomen, across the area of the diaphragm, neck and head.
11. And we would give the electrical treatments as would be given through the hands of the manipulator, see; that is, the body so charged that quite a high current passes through the one doing the treating, to this body being treated. This is a variation, of course, from that which has been taken by the body in other forms of electrical forces, but this should in the present supply and bring a much better condition. About every ten days have one of these treatments, following the hydrotherapy.
12. Occasionally, - about once a month, - do have a colonic irrigation.
13. Also take - at home by self - a douche with Glyco-Thymoline. Have the water body temperature, and put at least a tablespoonful of Glyco-Thymoline to the quart of water. Do this and we will reduce this itching in the vagina, and the area about same. This may be taken daily if necessary.
14. The Glyco-Thymoline may also be applied full strength to the various areas over the body where there is itching. If there is not sufficient strength in this, then the DDD Cream may be used for places of irritation outside.
15. But with the reducing of the excessive acidity, these irritations should gradual]y diminish.
16. This will also let the body sleep or rest more, as it quiets or maintains a better equilibrium through the whole of the nervous system.
17. Also this will aid the body in better digestion.
18. Keep in the open when practical. Walk, not too much, but considerable - and in the open when practical.
19. In the diet, - keep away from any of fats, from any carbonated drinks or drinks made with carbonated waters. Do not take any of these, nor any of the malt drinks or things of that nature; nor vinegar nor anything of that nature. Keep close to the alkalines.
20. It's natural that there should be some sweets taken at times, but let it be in the form of honey or the combinations of same, rather than in sugar or cane sugar or even beet sugar. Honey may be used occasionally.
21. Do these things, and we should bring better conditions for this body, [337].
22. Ready for questions.
23. (Q) What causes the shooting pains that come?
    (A) As indicated, the return of those excesses of activity through the organs of the liver and the kidneys.
    Do those things that have been indicated.
    Have the treatments by such as Reilly.
24. We are through with this Reading.
