TEXT

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions he has submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [1465].
3. As we find, some conditions are much improved; some APPARENTLY are not so well, - yet as we find, if that which IS improved is taken advantage of in the present, we may attain a great deal of improvement.
4. We would now apply each day for five days, then leaving off for three days, and then five days again, and so on, the Castor Oil Packs as first indicated, - through the areas of the abdomen, especially in the lacteal duct and the caecum, and in the gall duct and the like; where there have been the needs of breaking up the adhesions, or what may be called the shortcircuiting of the connection between cerebrospinal and sympathetic (which apparently is worse). Let these Packs remain on at least two hours, at a time.
5. Following same give a gentle massage (which may be given as we find by an attendant or nurse, or even one in the family); kneading as it were the abdomen, from the right side towards the left, - or pushing over, pulling back, gently.
6. Then following the massage give a treatment with the vibratory forces of an electrically driven vibrator over the cerebrospinal system. Use the percussion cup, or the cup applicator; especially in the upper cervicals (this in the upper portion of the neck, you see), over the 9th dorsal, over the lumbar area; while the other areas of the spine also would receive attention. But take five or ten minutes, or fifteen minutes even, for making this application.
7. And be mindful of the diet and the eliminations.
8. If there is the tendency for the lack of proper eliminations, or some periods when these are overactive, - in either case we would use the high enemas occasionally. For these we would use a salt and soda solution, the proportions being a level teaspoonful of baking soda and a heaping teaspoonful of table salt to each quart and a half of water used. And the water should be body-temperature; not hotter, not colder. This will then not overtax the body, but will aid as it cleanses. For this would be given at least once a week, or oftener if there is not the proper balance in eliminations.
9. Keep the diet as indicated.
10. Ready for questions.
11. (Q) Is the treatment he is now receiving as it should be?
    (A) We would use THIS as indicated, as combined with same.
12. We are through for the present.
