TEXT

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for the relief and improvement of same; giving especial attention to the high blood pressure, or the feeling in the back of the head at times, and what should be done to relieve same.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here. We don't find the body has high blood pressure!
3. Now, we find there are some abnormal conditions with this body. These are of some definite or specific conditions as exist in the body. Some are the result, or the effect, of these existent conditions, and the more often we find the effects, rather than the cause, have been treated in the body.

Others, as we find, are brought into the system through the absorption of toxins through the intestinal tract, and through the conditions that now exist through the pelvis region, in the condition as is produced by that existent.
6. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, THIS we find the greater cause of the conditions existent in the body that are abnormal for the general forces of this body, [1187], we are speaking of. In the 9th and 10th dorsal do we find the seat, or the cause, of the troubles. Through the stress and strain that has been brought to the body, by too much standing on the feet, too much bending and standing for the body under the pressure as has existed, too much toxins as has been taken and absorbed in the body, too much of nerve strain, and through the mental reaction of same, these have brought those conditions as are existent in the functioning of the portions of the system, that give now the detrimental condition, or that action to the head, to the heart's action, to the pulmonaries, to the digestive system, that apparently are causes. They are only, then, as we see, reflexes, see?
7. The functioning of the organs then, under these various conditions, are, as we see, in this wise:
8. In the action of
9. GC: You will speak more slowly.
10. EC: We are through.
