TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [633]; this we have had before.
2. As we find, conditions are very good in many respects; better in many ways than we have had here before.
3. However, as we find, through the cerebrospinal system, along the areas of the 8th, 9th and 10th dorsal, there have been muscular strains.
4. These as we find would be materially aided, and prevent disturbing conditions later, if there were corrective measures osteopathically given; but use the ultra-violet ray WITH same also - preferably the HEAT ray, rather than the carbon light or the mercury light. Use then the heat OR the mercury light, which is preferable to the carbon light for this particular condition.
5. Well that there be manipulations given, and adjustments first, THEN the light, THEN a GENTLE massage or muscular massage after the light.
6. We would keep the precautions as to diet.
7. And the activities in the open are well.
8. Ready for questions.
9. (Q) Was this caused by strain in lifting?
   (A) A strain.
10. (Q) Was there any other injury?
    (A) This would be enough if allowed to run on!
11. (Q) Any special diet?
    (A) Along the line as we have indicated. Keep away from too many starches.
12. (Q) Has the condition cleared up with reference to the sphincter muscles, the colon?
    (A) These are much better.
13. (Q) Any other advice?
    (A) These we would do as we have indicated, in the present.
14. We are through with this Reading.

BACKGROUND

1. See 633-8 on 6/13/37.
2. 10/28/37 Wife [480] phoned: "[633] lifted something heavy and must have strained his back; thought we'd better catch it in the beginning in case it might prove serious. What can be done to help strain caused by lifting? Was there an injury? Is there any special diet recommended at this time? Has the condition cleared up with reference to the sphincter muscles, the colon? Any other advice?"

REPORTS

1. 11/28/37 He obtained Ck. Physical for his father, Mr. [1062].
2. 11/30/37 Wife [480]'s ltr.: "This letter should have been off to you on Sunday, but [633] (after your call) came down with a bad chill - yesterday he ran 102 1/2 temperature, so we had Thompson (Dr. John R. Thompson, D.O.) to give him a treatment. Previous to that I gave him a good massage with the Mutton Suet, Spirits of Camphor and Turpentine to relieve any congestion, dose of Milk of Magnesia, and after the treatment he broke out into a grand sweat - we both felt better after that. I am keeping him in bed today. He had another treatment this a.m. The temperature has gone down to about 100.
   "Dad [1062] is going up to see Dr. Thompson today... Please know that we have implicit faith in what you are doing and we know it is only from the very highest source. God bless you!"
3. 1/22/38 Wife [480]'s ltr.: "The strain [633] had cleared up beautifully - no after effects. Thanks to you."
4. 2/13/38 See 633-10.
