We would, at least every other day, massage the whole of the
cerebro-spinal system, from head to the base of the brain to
the end of the spine, with equal parts of olive oil and
tincture of myrrh - adding to each tablespoonful of olive oil
and myrrh three minims of oil of sassafras. Prepare the
solution as it is to be used, for each application. It will
require in the first few treatments, or for the first week,
about two tablespoonsful of the oil and myrrh. Heat the oil
and add the myrrh. Only use what the body absorbs, see? We
would also, when giving this treatment, massage to the end
of the toes; that is, along the whole of the lower limbs,
see, and especially the soles of the feet and around the
ankle - and in those places where the burses of the feet
would absorb, in which the solution would be effective and
active by the addition of the oil of sassafras.
We would also do the same from the brachial center over the
shoulders and to the tips of the fingers, especially in the
elbow joints, under arms, shoulder blades, palms of hands; as
in the lower limbs under knees, in the areas of the plexus in
the groins and the back portion of hips, to the tips of the
toes; especially, though, in the feet.
In the diet we would keep those foods that are body-building,
insuring that the eliminations are as near normal as
possible.
This condition is the result of the bite of a tick on the 4th
dorsal center. Only a very small scar, or a small abrasion -
as a pit, is shown there at present.
Ready for questions.
Follow these suggestions, and after twenty-six treatments of
the sinusoidal, we would give further instructions.
We are through for the present.

allow them to follow your instructions (that's my guess)."
