TEXT

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for the improvement of same.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here. This we have had before.
3. Now, we find there are some general improvements in the conditions in this body since last we had same. In this respect the improvement is that ability of resistance in the general system. The improvement as has been shown for the time throughout the mesenteric system has allowed the assimilation in the body to improve. This gives greater resistance, though the body is still weak throughout, especially in the nerve system of the lower portion of the body. The gentle massage which may be given will strengthen the body. That massage would be well to be given in that way and manner as has been outlined. Massage into the small of the back, or the lumbar region and along the whole sciatic center or system, down the lower portion of the limbs, see? with equal parts of olive oil and myrrh. This will strengthen and help the general condition, preventing the vibration as is seen by instability, or incoordination through the lower portion of body.
4. The stimulants for the system should be kept as much as is well for the body, or as the body assimilate same.
5. The condition for the feet, as has been given, should be kept at least once each day, covering, as has been given, see? with this solution, then bathing off, see? and after this massage the oil and the myrrh in the system, see?
6. Then, the vibrator, as is given in battery formation, needs recharging - that is, solution needs changing, see? and this kept whenever the body rests in the day, see?
7. Keep about the body as much company - pleasant company - as is possible.
8. As much of open air as can well be taken. Never be in drafts.
9. Careful in the diet, and this in the general way will keep the system in the nearest normal condition.
10. Add only, then, to that being given in the normal manner, the massage and that as to be massaged with, see?
11. (Q) How often should the massage be given?
    (A) This should be given every morning, after the cleansing of this solution for the feet and limbs has been taken off, see? and cleansed in tepid water. Then apply the massage of the oil and myrrh, across the lower portion of the back, the lumbar region, see? from the waist line down, see? plumb to the heel, under the knee and along the back of the leg. Let the body lie prone, on the face, or portion, and keep in that way until this is gently massaged into this portion of the body.
    Keep the inhalants when necessary for the condition in the lung, though, as we find, this will assist, especially (that is, those properties as are being given for this massage) in and across the kidneys, see? so that, as the assimilations are being assisted, we do not overtax this functioning of ELIMINATIONS, see? for, to overtax one pole of the elimination centers of the system is to bring, with this general debilitation in the body, an extra amount of reaction to that portion of the system, especially with the low vitality of the nerve plexuses, for when one is loosened, as it were, by over sympathetic conditions in the system, this over action of one gives destructive forces to that organism, see? Taxation of the kidneys in this would bring, especially, irritation to the bladder, see? That's why the gin is better than the Spirits Frumenti, though it would be well were these alternated, see?
12. That is all the questions.
13. We are through for the present.
