These in their activity upon the NERVE FORCES OF THE BODY
produce a tendency for an unbalancing in the equilibrium, or
a nervous reaction; as well as a nervous reaction in the
activity of the digestive forces. Not as paralysis agitans,
not as palsy, but a nervousness and a laggardness to the
lower extremities. And those conditions in the shoulders and
arms, and those produced in the exterior forces upon the skin
in portions, are the effect or the result of these disturbing
influences in the nature of these disturbances through the
alimentary canal and partly in the colon and in the lower
portion of same more specific, even extending at times to the
glands in the lower portion of the body.
Hence we find that applications that would aid in making for
those corrections in these portions of the body will create a
near normal balance throughout the whole forces.
In the nerve forces, as indicated, there are the effects at
times from these pressures and irritations, or the tendency
for the adherence because of the lack of proper lymph flow;
creating a disturbance between the sympathetic and the
superficial circulation.
IN THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS THEMSELVES, as we find,
brain forces are very good.
The activities in the sensory forces are hindered in their
response, especially in those conditions that arise from a
catarrhal condition through the circulatory forces of the
body; as in eyes, ears, throat, and the lymph functioning
through these.
Lungs, heart and larynx: The lung forces of the body make
for periods when there is s fullness and a shortness of
breath, but these are those conditions as to the general
reflexes in the circulatory forces - as in the heart's
reaction.
In the digestive forces and activities of the liver, the
spleen and the pancreas, with the natural inflammation or
disturbances that produce at times inflammation, there are
those tendencies towards the creation of too great a quantity
of sugar - that makes for a reaction through the kidneys or
the lower hepatic circulation. But these, as we find, would
correct themselves.
The prostate and those activities in same will also respond
to the general treatments, as would those in the lower limbs
and in the feet themselves. All of these are as a portion
and make for reflexes from those disturbances as we find
indicated.
IN MAKING FOR THE CORRECTIONS, THEN:
About once a week we find the body would do well to have the
fume baths, preferably with iodine as a fusion that would
make for its activity over portions of the body. Not raising
the temperature of the body to too great an extent. We would
take these with the light baths, yet not the full strength or
not raising the body temperature above that of about a
hundred. And the fumes from Atomidine or Tincture of Iodine
(the Atomidine preferably used as a fume), or as vapor
settling upon the body, will make for a reaction to portions
of the system itself.
Following same we would have a thorough rubdown with salt and
rum, and then a cleansing of same or a closing of the pores
after this thorough rubdown or massage with the alcohol would
make for those changes that would revivify, making for more
activities in the body and relieving those stresses and
strains and making for particular adjustments in the lumbar
area and about the coccyx end of the spine, as well as in the
feet and lower limbs and specific adjustments should be made
in the upper dorsal and through the cervical area. Not just
merely cracking the segments, but rather a muscular reaction
with the bursae or the plexus between each segment in these
portions of the body.
The diet as it has been outlined for the body is very good;
though we find that if the elements that go to make up the
bodily functions are balanced somewhat better we would make
for better reactions through the whole of the digestive
system, enabling the body to rest much better.
We also find it would be well for periods of a week at a time
to use the Radio-Active Appliance each day; it would make for
strengthening of the body. Attach same as the body is ready
to retire, for an hour each day for a week; then rest from
same a period of a week and then apply again; or when the
body is tired and worn from the mental and physical
activities of the day, the Appliance used during the
mid-afternoon will make for rest and recuperative forces.
Keep the anodes clean or polished, and attach to opposite
sides of the body.
But have at least a month or two months of taking the fume
sweats once a week, and the thorough rubdown.
In the balancing of the diet, do not have too much of sweets
with starches. Have the sweets rather with the meats, as of
fowl, fish and lamb. Not too much of red meats at ANY time,
nor any fried foods. Keep an equal balance in the leafy and
the pod vegetables; preferably three of those that grow above
the ground to one below the ground.
Do these and we will not only make for better conditions in
this body of [
1169], but prevent many a disturbance later on.
Ready for questions.
(Q) How often should the osteopathic treatments be given?
(A) They are not osteopathic; they are rather of the massage
nature, taken when the fume baths or rubdowns are given.
These at Reilly's would be very good.
We are through for the present.

REPORTS
6/06/36 Mr. [
1169]'s son, Mr. [
1113], requested a second
