Now, we find there are conditions that may be materially
aided, as we find, as affect the physical force and physical
functioning of the body. While there are pressures as have
caused ruptures in the blood stream, these have been active
only in such a nature - thus far - that they may be aided in
being segregated, or through absorption and drainage prevent
further inroads in their activity as DESTRUCTIVE forces for
the locomotion, and particularly for their production as for
INCOORDINATION between sympathetic and cerebro-spinal nerve
supply, or that pressure as hinders in the impulses through
brain activities; also those conditions as make for the
repressions and overactivity in the heart's action, and
the pressures as are producing same are - as WE find -
FUNCTIONAL, rather than organic in their nature. While
the stimuli as has been and is used aids in keeping this in
check, yet - as we find - these may be altered as to BETTER
assist the circulation and heart's action, and respiration,
were those SOURCES from which this FUNCTIONAL disorder
emanates given more consideration, which - with the activity
in the nerve reflexes - is seen from those of the cardiac
plexus, especially as related to the crossing in the
hypogastric and pneumogastric region. This, as we find in
this PARTICULAR case, seen in the 2nd and 3rd dorsal and in
the 4th, 5th AND 3rd cervical centers, especially as their
radial activity have to do with the central circulatory and
nerve system.
In the activities, then, as would bring about the better
coordination and make for an easier and for a much nearer
NORMAL reaction, as we would find, would be with the
drainages set up in the respiratory system, the removing of
the pressures through manipulations in the upper dorsal and
the cervical region, with the stimuli for heart's action
changed to those which do not tend to engorge same, with
a stimulation in the circulation and elimination with Gold
Chloride and Bicarbonate of Sodas with same - these will
make for a stimulation as will aid most. When this is
IN-system, stimulate same also through the centers along
the cerebro-spinal system with the VIOLET ray, using the
applicator or appliance as will be moved about the system -
the regular or glass anode. Also following such, that that
carries the vibrations to the central nerve system, but DO
NOT increase the vibration to too high a tension. Not the
ultra violet in the beginning, but the VIOLET. Let those
of the properties of the Soda and Gold be in system - taken
internally, through the mouth - for at least thirty minutes
but not OVER that period, before the application of the
electrical forces are given.
The manipulations will be as for stimuli to the drainage and
to the circulation, especially as related to those centers as
has been indicated.
As much of exercise in the open as is in keeping with the
strength of the body, though we would not overtax same;
as to those conditions as we will find that will be in the
beginning of the changes or alterations, in the superficial
activity of the capillary circulation, this will be a RESULT
of these applications, not a cause from other sources - but
these will be met by the usages of those of the sweats in
the bath as carries the FUMES of iodine, that these may be
allayed in their activity, and that taken in THROUGH the
respiratory system, through the pores of the skin of this
nature, will be healing and also addition to the lymph and
the emunctories, preventing that tendency of quivering and
giving more stability in the circulation.
Ready for questions.
(Q) Will his mental condition improve or be cured entirely?
(A) This, as we find, will MATERIALLY improve. As to cure
entirely, that will depend upon the RESPONSES in the system.
The PRESSURES as exist in the present PREVENT the normal
reaction between sympathetic and cerebro-spinal impulses.
Not dementia; not a softening, not even a distribution of
disorders as of a malignant nature, or of a conservatory
nature - yet these are as distortions of the sympathetics,
attempting to coordinate in or under pressures.
(Q) If this treatment is followed, how long will it be
before he will be cured?
(A) The RESPONSES should show their BEGINNING in three
to five weeks. As to be cured, that will depend upon the
response of the system.
In the matter of diet during the whole of the treatments,
this must of necessity be kept in as alkalin reactory force,
so that - as the blood supply, through the impulse in the
system, is aided - the replenishing will be to carry more of
those of less acid in same. After the third WEEK, we will
find that the ash - medicated ash - in the eighth grain doses
- one each day - will be most helpful in releasing carbon and
reducing gas. Not in the beginning, for the responses of too
much oxygen released in the system would be too severe, until
the heart's action is made nearer normal.
(Q) Will he be able to go back to business?
(A) That depends upon the responses. Let's begin with this
and THEN worry about that as we get farther along!
(Q) What was the cause of his condition?
(A) The overtaxation of the system, physically and mentally
- and the excess as caused eruptions in the blood cell
itself.
(Q) Was it through the fault of any particular person that
his illness was caused?
(A) Most himself, but the response was from outside forces,
to be sure. These through mental forces, however.
(Q) How often should the manipulation be given?
(A) This will depend upon how the drainages set up in
system. It will be found that for the heart's action it
will be necessary to treat lightly and often, while for
those of the conditions to the head and for the setting up of
stimulation in the circulation, these will be deeper but NOT
so often given; that is, in the upper dorsal and throughout
the cervical region. Of course, not neglecting those in
the lower centers, where cerebro-spinal and sympathetic
coordinate for the locomotories - for we would not have that
tendency as to where the slowed circulation causes too much
swelling in the lower limbs.
(Q) What dosage of the Chloride Gold and Soda?
(A) Prepare as this: The one grain of the Chloride of Gold
to one ounce of distilled water. Five grains of Bicarbonate
of Soda to one ounce of distilled water. When the dosage
is given, give - in the beginning - one drop Chloride of
Gold the first day - two drops of the Bicarbonate of Soda.
Increase the dosage in the same proportion, one drop each day
of the Gold, two of the Soda, until there is ten drops being
given. Then rest one day. Then begin all over again, one
drop - increasing each day. This given thirty minutes BEFORE
the application of the VIOLET ray, see? This should be
applied along those centers, especially, of course, from the
solar plexus radial centers and those that work from same,
both to the front and back, for at least five increasing to
fifteen minutes - a little bit more each day as the dose
increases. Then, for at least five to fifteen minutes have
that anode as held in hand - body lying prone. This for the
internal, or the charging of the system, see?
(Q) How often should the sweats be given?
(A) These, we will find, about once to three times each
week. DO NOT raise the temperature of the box, or of the
cabinet bath, HIGHER than ninety, allowing the fumes to be
the active force in system, see? Be mindful, when such are
given, as to the heart's reaction to same.
(Q) What treatment for the abdominal hernia?
(A) This, as we will find, will come with the manipulations
and the binding of same in the beginning. Later, as we
increase the strength of the body, we will find that by
placement and by bandaging, and by the masseuse of same with
oils that are a combination of mineral and vegetable, this
may be SO strengthened as to be reduced entirely.
(Q) Is the mental condition of body such that he recognizes
relatives?
(A) At times this is vague; at others VERY definite.
Do as we have given. Then the changes, as they appear, may
be aided.
We are through for the present.
