TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [2504]. This we have had before. Now, we find there are changes in the physical functionings of this body. Most of these, we find, are for the betterment of the physical conditions.
2. We find there are some conditions in the MENTAL forces at this time that are causing some worry. This not good for the physical, nor the nerve reaction in the body.
3. Now, in the physical or material applications for the betterment of the physical conditions - while in some respects the conditions in the cerebro-spinal centers show some improvement, there are, however, those centers - especially those in the upper dorsal and upper lumbar - where there should be deeper manipulations. Not too severe, as to cause too much unpleasantness for the body - in a hurry to get through with it, but rather those deep, gentle manipulations, as to gradually relax these tensions as are seen in these centers. Well, too, - now, this is not changing from that being given, or leaving these others off - but add these:
4. Those vibrations wherein the reverse in the electrical forces will become applicable to the nerve reflexes, and it would be well before such treatments are given that the body take internally, eight hours before such treatments are given - and don't give them over once each week - those of this proportion: Chloride of Gold 1 grain to 1 ounce of water. Of this solution take 5 drops, see? In the same solution add 10 drops - that is, just before the dose is taken - of Bicarbonate of Soda. This taken - 1 dose - eight hours before these reverse vibratory forces are given.
5. Keep, then, the batteries as have been outlined. The sweats to keep up the capillary circulation, the rubs to keep up the stimulation in the capillaries and in the emunctory circulation. Well that, along the whole length of the spine, after the electrical vibrations are given, be massaged well with equal parts Tincture of Myrrh and Olive Oil. Heat the oil and adding the myrrh, about tablespoonful of each should be used at one treatment; and be persistent, and we will find results will come now quicker. Ready for questions.
6. (Q) What is the best to use for internal bath?
   (A) Those of that known as the elevator baths would be better for this body. Now some hold that this (such is Tyrrell's Hygienic Elevator) tend to balloon the ascending or transverse colon. This not true, provided the body does not allow such, when being taken, to become too over full in the operation - but it is well that, with each half gallon of water used, a teaspoonful of Glyco-Thymoline be put in same.
7. (Q) How long at a time should the electrical treatments be given?
   (A) Three to five minutes.
8. (Q) Where applied?
   (A) To those centers from which the radial forces of the movements in system are operating, or those that are tending toward atrophy reaction in nerve plexus.
9. (Q) Any suggestions regarding the diet?
   (A) We would gave given them if necessary. Just so we keep those as given. We are through with this reading.
