In the NERVE portions of the system, in the cerebro-spinal
system we find there have been some impingements in the upper
dorsal and cervical area, where the organs of the sensory
system, especially, are involved. Those particularly in the
3rd and 4th dorsal, in the 4th and 5th cervical area, as
affect the nerve impulse to the nasal and throat activities,
the sense of smell, and the sense of FEELING in the
relationships to the AUDITORY forces of the body. With these
impulses hindered, the body has become more and more
susceptible to particles that may float in the air, or that
affect the muco-membranes of the nasal cavity and the soft
tissue that supplies those nutriments in circulation, in
nerve impulse. Hence the body is BORDERING on that which
would develop into what may be termed hay fever, or an
inflammation of the muco-membranes of throat and head, by
pollen, dust, sound, water - any effect that AFFECTS such
membranes. Hence the resultant effects upon the body, and
the tendency for the ducts of the face, of the eye, of the
mouth, of the salivary glands, to OVER function, or produce
irritations in the system. These are better at times than at
others, when the body is more free from those things that
irritate. The BASIS or CAUSE, however, is in the inflection
as produced in the nervous system, in the dorsal and cervical
area.
As to the ORGANS of the system that are affected by these,
these - we find - are rather of the secondary or sympathetic
nature, and with the correction of these conditions in the
present we would find that the system would be relieved of a
great deal of inconvenience and make for a better functioning
of the body throughout.
Then, to make for these corrections, we would have the
adjustments osteopathically given, with the antiseptics that
would CLARIFY the throat and nasal cavities - in the form of
a preparation as in this:
To 4 ounces of grain alcohol, in an 8 ounce container, we
would add:
Eucalyptol, Oil of...................20 minims,
Benzoin...............................5 minims,
Rectified Oil of Turp.................5 minims,
Rectified Creosote....................8 minims,
Canadian Balsam.......................5 minims,
Tolu in solution.....................40 minims.
Shake solution together when it is to be inhaled. When there
is the spasmodic condition of sneezing, or the tendency to
cough, or irritation, or tendency to clear the throat, this
we would inhale in throat and in nasal cavities two or three
times. This is only an antiseptic, but will clarify the
muco-membranes of the throat and head, and assist in
relieving the pressure in the system, PROVIDED those
adjustments are made in the dorsal and cervical region.
We would follow these, and we will find bettered conditions
for this body, [
452].
Ready for questions.
(Q) What causes perspiration of hands?
(A) Unequaled circulation, produced by pressure in those
regions of the brachial centers, as indicated from those
impingements in the upper dorsal region.
(Q) What can be done locally for impurities on face?
(A) Do as we have outlined for these conditions, and - as
has been indicated - when the circulation of the body has
been readjusted, through the relieving of pressures to the
upper portion of the system that affect the muco-membranes
and soft tissue of the face, neck, head, throat, we will find
these will clarify themselves.
Keep the eliminations open.
(Q) If body goes to Nova Scotia, is there any suggestion as
to diet to keep body in good physical condition?
(A) As we will find, the greater needs are for the correct
adjustment in the dorsal and cervical area, with the
properties as indicated for the clarifications of the
inflammation that is produced by the irritation in the
mucomembrane. As to the diet in other conditions,
surroundings or positions, this - to be sure - depends a
great deal upon the surroundings, the temperamental effects
that are created upon the system, but those that will keep a
normal equilibrium and those that are in accord with the
surroundings - or those that are GROWN in the surroundings
are the better for the body, provided the eliminations are
kept nominal for the system.
(Q) How often should the adjustments be given?
(A) Were three to four such treatments given, a day between
each one, these SHOULD correct this - at the present state.
(Q) How can it be proved to body that the source of this
information is in harmony with his work. [In the Christian
ministry]
(A) This must be found within self by that which may aid in
the physical conditions, as this: These will be indicated as
we have found here. Will the tests be made, or the
conditions be followed out by one that may make such
examinations for the locations, then these bringing their
results should prove; for "Proof of the pudding is in the
eating".
We are through for the present.

7/17/32 Mother [
255] submitted questions, saying she had not
yet told [
452] of his Life Rdg. as the time was not yet ripe.
She submitted questions, including: "What can be done to
remove cause of sneezing attacks? What can be done locally
to relieve same?"
REPORTS
8/03/32 Father [
378]'s ltr.: "Altho [
452] is still rather
skeptical, he followed the rdg. like an obedient child and
was immediately relieved."
8/09/32 Mother [
255]'s letter: "Enclosed you will find
questions for two rdgs. One for myself as regards a group,
and one for my son, [
452], Mental-Spiritual. I can see he
has been much impressed by the results of his Physical Rdg.
He has not sneezed again. He had asked several osteopaths
about his back, they all said it was alright. He remembers
the time he wrenched his back. I am having this rdg. for him
with his knowledge, altho I wrote the questions... His trip
to Nova Scotia has been postponed until Oct."
