TEXT

1. EC: Yes - this body we have had before, [409]. Here we find the body still on the improve. While we find there are some conditions as cause distress, we find that with the proper precautions taken, that these are being PROPERLY taken care of. There is the necessity, then, that these conditions as may be given here may be adhered to rather strictly:
2. The condition in the hip proper has reached that where the near proper adjustment may be made without injury, either to those eliminations as are separated and are exhuming or running, and without the INJURY to the seepage as has occurred. While the springing up of the end is still apparent, and may BE found to be so when the physical body has gained near its NORMALCY, with this deflection. The pus as is being thrown out should be cultured, but will be found TO be of the plain strep nature, and with a NEGATIVE reaction, as so far as INJURY concerned. Keep, then, this rather severe [method of] treatments (manipulations and adjustments), but not to where that the injured portion of the bone is removed, or that seepage is opened. So, care must be taken in the relaxing of the ligaments before the proper adjustments are made. Then, EACH time an adjustment is made, relax same thoroughly by the application of saturated solution of Epsom Salts packs, for at least twenty to thirty minutes before the adjustment is made. The sore, or the opening, should NOT be kept in too MUCH irritation, nor allowed to heal too quickly, as long as there is the proper CHARACTER of the blood as is seen in wound. Do not strain the limb BELOW the knee joint by pulling, but the weight should be only from the upper portion of the limb. DO NOT attempt to use same by walking on same, until the full adjustment is made. Be careful that the body does not take cold, with the adjustments being made, AFTER heat being applied - for the pores will be open, not only in the limb but throughout the whole reflex from the lower, or from the lumbar plexus, both to that as radiates up, sympathetically, or radiates directly in the other portions of the pelvis. Keep the eliminations in the alimentary canal near normal, with at least two activities FROM same each day. Keep up the use of the powder or the ash, that the disintegration may be kept in the proper segregation in the system. Then be sure, too, that the proper precautions are taken in the cleansing of the portions of system where wound shows. Keep the lights as has been given, or these may be given more OFTEN, and the time cut, for the superficial activities in the nerves, the blood supply, the emunctories through the system, must be kept working near normal. Then, make this every OTHER day, or EVERY day - but make the TIME of same as the proper division from that as has been given. We would use BOTH the Infra and the ultra violet. Would not be harmful, but beneficial, were the VIOLET ray (plain) used on the limb, from the under portion of knee to the soles of the foot - especially on the limb that shows the distortion. Ready for questions. We are through with this reading.
