TEXT

1. GC: You will give the present physical condition of this body, with suggestions for further corrective measures; with special reference to angry place on leg. You will answer the questions that may be asked.
2. EC: Yes - we have the body here - this we have had before.
3. As we find, there continues to be a much greater activity in the deep or internal circulation than in the superficial. Here especially we find this indicated in the manner in which the veins in the limbs show the fullness, and where - as indicated - the disturbing or the rupture of same has caused and does cause disturbing conditions in the immediate.
4. If a better superficial circulation will be stimulated by deeper stimulation, osteopathically, to the lumbar and sacral area - and, of course, go UPWARD; coordinating the dorsal and upper dorsal and cervicals with same - we will find better conditions for the body.
5. As to the specific disturbances - we find this is not what would be called superficial infection, but rather in the nature of the INABILITY of the slowed circulation to carry away from the area the poisons and accumulations - by the very nature and character of the condition itself; that is, as combined with the general condition, see?
6. Then, with the lack of the superficial circulation being nominal, the abilities of coagulation - or healing abilities in the blood supply have become impaired.
7. While we find that the present applications [plantain?] are beneficial, there will be required the more active influence of ELIMINATIONS for the system.
8. And here, owing to the diet, we find that the minerals as an eliminant - as with oils - would be preferable to the vegetable compound as an eliminant. Hence as we find, if there would be a course of the Crazy Crystals taken, this would materially aid - with the osteopathic corrections - in bringing a better balance to the system.
9. And if the present local application is not effective, or does not combine with these other suggestions to bring relief - or if the place becomes angry again - we would then use Iodex as combined with the Animated Ash. As we have indicated for such, the proportions would be about three grains of the Animated Ash to an ounce of the Iodex - but this thoroughly, of course, mixed together; using mortar and pestle. These will assist in producing such conditions as to make for healing, as well as purifying the areas ABOUT the abrasion or eruption.
10. Do that.
11. Ready for questions.
12. (Q) How often should the osteopathic treatments be given?
    (A) During this particular siege or period, as we find about twice a week - and four SHOULD be sufficient; and then they may be much farther apart - for the general correction.
    This will require DEEP osteopathic manipulations in lumbar and sacral area, and with special reference to the locomotions for the sciatic centers.
    Do these.
13. We are through with THIS Reading.
