TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [571]; this we have had before. Improvements do we find in the general physical conditions of the body. While there have been adverse conditions, these are the natural consequences of some indiscretions in the diet and in the activities of the body as related to those changes coming about in the physical forces.
2. We would continue with the compounds as given.
3. Too, under the stress, we find that there will be required a thorough relaxing of the body through the coccyx, sacral and the lumbar area, and a coordination of same in the upper cervical area. Three to six such osteopathic adjustments to relax this tautness should be sufficient. These we would have at least two or three days apart; the coccyx, the sacral, the lumbar, the upper cervical.
4. So, continue with the Bitters compound; being mindful of the diets and of keeping the eliminations in and through the alimentary canal, and especially until after the periods of eliminations as begun from the menstrual periods.
5. Ready for questions.
6. (Q) Just what caused the three attacks last night?
   (A) Read just what has been given! Indiscretion, poor elimination, changes coming about; and a reaction.
7. (Q) Should all the treatment as given be continued in the same method?
   (A) We would continue the Bitters, and now relax the body in the areas given; being discrete regarding the eliminations and the diets.
8. (Q) Can anything be done at the time to relieve the convulsions?
   (A) Ice at the back of the neck will relieve. But she mustn't have any more, or very slight - if any. These may come about those periods. DO NOT resort to sedatives!
9. (Q) Any other advice regarding the body?
   (A) Do this, for the physical.
10. We are through with this reading.

   To what extent? "Only recently have noticed a really marked improvement. She has matured now - and I notice it is only around the time of her period - that she has many attacks - and they are slight."
