TEXT

1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [1309]; this we have had before.
3. As we find, the conditions in the present are such that the body has a form of neuritis.
4. Neuritis - as should be understood - arises from different causes, and yet it produces a very similar reaction in the body.
5. In the present we find that the sources of this disturbance arise from conditions which exist in the colon area, where the absorption of poisons by the body produces in the lymph circulation the tendencies for bursa in some of the muscular forces to give a great deal of pain to the body.
6. The better manner to eliminate the effects, then, is to create better eliminations and dissolve - through the circulation - those poisons that accumulate in the muscular forces of the body.
7. Osteopathic massages are good, but the character of the application for this particular condition for this body has not been as well as it should. Those applications to the affected area are superfluous, for the areas needing the application are the centers in the cerebrospinal system from which the affected areas receive impulse, and where drainages may be better set up.
8. The taking of salts, - as mineral salts, such as the Crazy Crystals or the Eno Salts, - with more frequent high colonic irrigations, - would relieve these general tensions.
9. To be sure, the osteopathic adjustments are to set up eliminations better, or drainages, AND to prevent recurrence of the conditions; while the regular periods of taking the eliminants will eliminate the already accumulated poisons and assist in dissolving and eliminating the poisons already affecting specific centers by the general disturbance.
10. The osteopathic manipulations also should be of sufficient frequency to aid in keeping better coordinations through other portions of the body. We find that these MAY be administered by Schoelles, but as we find McLean [Theodore R. McLean, D.O.] also would be well to consider. The choice is to be made by the body.
11. Ready for questions.
12. (Q) Just how should the salts be taken? In series? And in what doses?
    (A) If the Crazy Crystals are taken (which are a combination of the mineral salts and of sulphur, which is for the purifying of the blood stream in itself), these would be taken daily for at least eight to ten days and then leave off for four or five days, and then take again.
    Have the colonics sufficiently to remove all traces of the mucous through the colon. This should require about ten days apart, and at least three or four of such.
13. (Q) Can sore condition of neck and head be cured?
    (A) This is of the same sources and natures, for - as given - these are the bursa that are being disturbed by the accumulations about same. These are the bursa in the neck and head, in the arms, in the hips.
14. (Q) Are new glasses advisable?
    (A) We would change, after these series of treatments, or have tests for same afterward - rather than before.
15. (Q) Can the recent ear disturbances be avoided in the future, and how?
    (A) By keeping better coordinations, as indicated; these should be part of the results of the proper character of treatment for setting up drainages and eliminations - by the mechanical or osteopathic adjustments.
16. (Q) Are teeth causing any of the trouble?
    (A) Irritation and soreness; and should have local attention.
17. (Q) Any specific ones?
    (A) All need attention.
18. (Q) Am I taking sufficient amount of variety of vitamins?
    (A) Begin taking the vitamins more in the food values. This is part of the disturbance - we have too many vitamins that are not being used by the energies of the body! We would leave these off, save the B-1 complex - until after there have been more perfect drainages set up.
19. (Q) Is general diet satisfactory?
    (A) In general, satisfactory.
20. (Q) Any further suggestions for building my body into better conditions?
    (A) These are the suggestions, as we have indicated. These we would do for the best conditions of the body, for the present; being mindful of the attitude, of course, physically and mentally, as well as being careful of the diets - that drainages are kept set up by the diets for the body. Use, then, plenty of the cereals and the citrus fruits (though do not use them both at the same meal), and fruits of all kinds.
21. We are through for the present.

BACKGROUND

1. 3/07/43 Letter: "Of late I have not been feeling very well, and would like very much to have another reading. If you would kindly let me know if you can give me one, and when, I would appreciate it very much.
   "Have I neuritis? What causes bad pains in arms, especially left one? Is Dr. Schoelles using right tr. to correct arm condition? Should I continue with him? How many? Would high colonics be advisable?"

REPORTS

1. 5/12/43 Mrs. [1158]'s letter: "Now, about Mrs. [1309]. She has carefully followed her reading, and got definitely better, then the severe 'earaches' began to return, and have kept intermittently recurring. Her last spell has continued for 4 days. She was so discouraged last night, she said she felt she would have to quit her work here and go away unless she could get really well. I feel if she could get further advice, undoubtedly suggestions could be received telling wherein to alter her present routine, in order to better meet the present requirements. Couldn't you ask about her, as you did for [1151], at a time when you are giving someone else a physical reading? I would like to know if she is eating sufficient citrus fruit, also what causes returning earaches, and how to overcome them."
2. 5/24/43 Mrs. [1309]'s letter: "May 27th will be very satisfactory to me and I shall be at ... and try and be a good girl.
   "I want to thank you for the wonderful help you have given me. I am able to sleep all night and every night now, and am beginning to feel like a million dollars. I have been planning for some time to write to you and let you know what good results I have received. Please send all your patients to Dr. McLean. He is the best I ever met, and is so anxious to follow your instructions correctly."
   1. What is causing ear trouble to continue? 2. Am I eating sufficient citrus fruits? 3. Shall I begin taking A Vitamins? 4. Where am I failing to carry out former instructions satisfactorily? 5. Are changes in program desirable? Please specify? 6. What causes aching arms upon awaking, and how correct? 7. Is Lactic Acid in milk detrimental? 8. Does crocheting and sewing affect the nerves adversely?"
3. 5/27/43 See 1309-9.
