EC: Yes, we have the body here. We have had this before,
you see. Now, we find there is a vast deal of difference in
the physical and the mental body since we had it here before.
There are some abnormal conditions for the body at the
present time. Especially is this shown in the lower portion
of the right limb. In this we have the effect of poor
eliminations, as is produced by conditions as have existed
through the digestive tract, affecting the circulation and
especially to the lower extremities, when we have had a lapse
of the equalizing of the circulation through the body. This,
as we see, has brought to the body those conditions wherein
the poisons as should be carried through the correct
channels, allow the body in the change in circulation, from
the end of the Venus [Venous?] circulation and arterial
circulation, where these connections are brought about, we
have brought these disturbances to the capillaries, making
then an exaggerated condition in the amount of lymphatic
fluid necessary to produce the perfect coagulation. Hence
infection and swelling as is produced from the knee down.
Then this brings the distresses to the body through those
channels. This has not, as we see, wholly incapacitated the
body, either physically, and has accentuated the body in
many ways mentally, bringing about, however, these
exaggerated extravagant forces in a literal manner in the
imagination of the body toward mental and physical
conditions, as compared to many conditions that have been
brought in various ways to the attention of the mental
development in the body.
Then, to bring the normal conditions to the body, it will be
necessary that the eliminations be carried in their proper
channels by the deep manipulation in the trunk portion of
body, and by the taking of properties in the system in the
form of those lactics that will bring the action to the
digestive system and the eliminations through the alimentary
canal in such forms as will give the proper eliminations
through the system.
The diet should be that of the coarser and not of high
seasoned foods. No white bread of any character, rather that
of whole wheat or of corn meals and of the preparation as
would be found in warm salts, or in ice as would be applied
to the lower portions of the body in the forms of pack about
the swelling. These we find will soon relieve that condition
in the body.
In the mental, we find these will be through these channels
as has been outlined for this body in its development through
mental forces, [and] when kept in that channel [will] bring
much of the physical and mental equilibrium in the system.
The nearer the mental equilibrium is kept in that manner
wherein there is not an excess of mental forces expended in
any manner, that the subconscious forces may develop the
fuller, may be accentuated the more when necessary.
Do this and we will find we will bring the better
developments, the better eliminations, the better
assimilations, the better mental forces, the better mental
development for this body, [

Taking the manipulations at least once each day, taking the
salines as would be given by such prescription as would be
given in conjunction with the deep osteopathic manipulations,
osteopathically given; applying the cold applications, or the
hot salt applications, when the body rests from walking, or
keeping off of feet, keeping the body, then, elevated at such
times; that is, that portion of the body, changing these at
least two or three times each evening.
