We find the BLOOD SUPPLY low in vitalization and irregular
in the manner of the circulation to and from the extremities.
This lack of vitality or of the proper numbers in the
leukocyte to restore the vital energy, slowing the
circulation especially in the deep centers, makes for a
peculiar or unusual condition that arises when the body rests
or sleeps. Of morning there is the tendency for the
headaches, that arise from the heaviness that has accompanied
the activity of the blood in its slowing. Thus the body
often feels very much more worn when it should be rested,
that when it has been in active force for some time. This is
a condition in the POSITION of the body, which when the body
is lying prone tends to slow the circulation more than
ordinarily for the body; yet there are those elements lacking
in blood stream. This lack has been gradually built by a
drain on the blood supply through the lack of functioning of
organs, and those tendencies for the ganglia in certain
portions of the system to become more or less inactive, or
not coordinating with the rest of the nerve forces as towards
impulse for carrying the circulation throughout the body. We
have a torpidity of a nature in the activities of the liver
and the spleen. The pancreas is near normal in its activity.
In the lacteal ducts we find the greater portion of the
disturbing forces, as also with the glands in the adrenals.
Hence those conditions in the lower hepatic circulation
become aggravated at times, producing heaviness across the
lumbar, and the lower portion of the body, extending to the
lower limbs. This is as a reflex condition and not an
organic disturbance.
The digestive system becomes upset at times; which condition
apparently does not arise from the headaches nor the
headaches from it; yet we do find that there is a sympathetic
condition with same. Also the activities in the eyes,
hearing, taste, feelings, the throat - these are accompanying
conditions with such disturbances in the body.
As we find, then, in meeting the needs of the conditions for
this body, [
804] we are speaking of, present in this room:
We would begin with a very small quantity of the atomic
iodine, called Atomidine, to create a better balance in the
activity of the gland forces in the system. Take one minim
twice each day. Because this produces a little dizziness at
times after the second or third day, especially of mornings,
do not become alarmed, because this will be only the effect
of the functioning of the organs attempting to create a
balance. Take one minim in a glass of water before the
morning meal, and one minim in a glass of water just before
retiring. Continue in this manner for two or three weeks,
then rest or leave it off for a week. Then begin again.
Repeat this procedure for three for four such periods or
rounds.
Also we would have thorough manipulations, PREFERABLY - as
we find - given in a NEUROPATHIC manner; that is, commence
with the central portion of the body, following the nerve
ends towards the extremities - as from the 9th and 10th
dorsal towards the lower portion of the body; then begin at
the 9th and 10th dorsal and go towards the head and to the
arms. We would have such treatments at least three times
each week for at least two or three weeks. Then rest or
leave them off for two or three weeks. Then repeat.
During the whole period we would have the electrical
vibrations that may be had from the violet ray applicator
that only charges electrical forces for the body; not the
bulb applicator, but the applicator that the body holds in
the hand when it is used. Use it in this manner: At first
we would begin with the right hand. The next afternoon we
would use it on the left foot; lay the Applicator on a piece
of glass and set the foot on top of it (This doesn't mean
with the shoe or stocking on, but without either on). The
next day it would be used in the left hand; the next day on
the right foot. Go around the body in this same form and
manner. This would be done each day for five to eight
minutes. It is the machine that plugs into the light, you
see; the regular violet ray applicator that is NOT in glass
or bulb - it is not felt when it is held, but it will
REVITALIZE those forces of the body; provided there will be,
of course, those properties taken in the Atomidine that will
make for the cleansing of the gland activity throughout the
body, AND the neuropathic manipulations.
As to the matter of diet, be mindful that this is kept nearer
to an alkalin-reaction. Then, we would be warned against
fried meats or fried foods of any kind; not too great a
quantity of Irish potatoes, though potatoes may be a portion
of the meal - but preferably those with the jackets on, and
eat the jacket rather than so much of the pulp, whether these
be baked or roasted or boiled. No red heavy meats; these
are hard for the digestive forces and for the revitalizing
of the body. Keep the alkalin reaction in the foods, and
we will find there will be made the better conditions.
Ready for questions.
(Q) What about the lame right arm?
(A) This will be overcome by the activities not only of the
violet ray or the electrical forces for the body, but by the
massage - and these changes will be materially aided in these
conditions.
(Q) The glands in the neck?
(A) Will be acted upon by the conditions as indicated.
(Q) I am taking the physiotherapy treatment. Is it the
right treatment, or should it be continued with the
treatments suggested here?
(A) As we find, more of the neuropathic than the
physiotherapy treatment will be most effectual for the body.
If we will follow these conditions, as we find, in ten days
we should see a decided change for the betterment.
Do this.
We are through for the present.
