TEXT

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [667]; this we have had before.
3. As we find, there has not been the building up of the body in the manner that has been outlined or indicated for the body.
4. Hence, there continues to be a general strain on the nervous system. And these conditions are localizing in segments along the cerebrospinal system; which is indicated by the trembly feelings through the lower extremities, the tiredness through that part of the body, especially the heaviness through the lungs, and the tendency for the glands of the throat and head to give a good deal of trouble.
5. As we find, there needs to be the thorough relaxations, osteopathically administered (and we would give Irvin for these); making particular reference to the conditions from the 9th dorsal downward, through the sacral area, and particularly from the 3rd and 4th dorsal to the base of the brain. We would have these twice a week until six or eight have been taken.
6. Also we would begin with the One A Day tablets and also the A and D tablets, - that is, the A and D tablets of the One A Day brand, - and also the B-Complex. Take one in the morning (either of these) and one in the afternoon.
7. Adhere rather closely to those suggestions we have made as to the diet; that is, plenty of body-building foods. While the adding of the vitamins is well for the body, there should be the proper values taken in the foods, in conjunction with the proper osteopathic adjustments; which should enable the body to assimilate all in a much better way and manner.
8. Ready for questions.
9. (Q) What causes the burning through left shoulder and back at times?
   (A) As indicated, the tendency for segments in this area of the spinal column to become clogged; thus preventing the proper flow of the lymph as well as of the general nerve forces.
10. (Q) Does this also cause the mental depressions at times?
    (A) These arise from general nervousness in the body.
11. (Q) What causes fingernails to split and break?
    (A) This is lack of the glandular forces, especially in the thyroid, which will be materially aided by the addition of the A and D vitamin forces as combined with the B-Complex, for the general tonics for the body.
12. We are through with this Reading.
