TEXT

GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly and tell me the conditions you find at the present time. You will diagnose the case thoroughly, giving the cause of the existing conditions, also the treatment for the cure and relief of this body.
EC: Now, the conditions we find in the body, while these do not hinder at the present time that of the normal functioning in many ways of the body, yet we find the condition detrimental and the body has delayed long in having the condition attended to, to prevent from having troubles with same in the future, for we find this permeates the system, externally, internally. The vital forces are involved in the condition to a greater or lesser degree. There are times when it involves more than others, just as the condition causes more distresses at one time than another.
Now, these are conditions as we find them in this body, [3813], we are speaking of. First:
IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this we find charged with the attempts of the system to create sufficient of that quotient in blood to give the system the ability to reject, to surround, to prevent the inroads of this improper coagulation as is produced in and about those portions where the injuries show in system. The inability of the equilibrium to be established causes the condition to come into the form of bony formations in and about, and mal-formation to the bone structure as we see about here. Then the system producing such quantities as not balanced for eliminations of those that are strangulated, as it were, in elimination without being thrown from the system. Hence the burning sensation as is produced at times in the whole of the emunctory circulation and the lymphatic circulation. This, as we see, comes then as an irritation to the whole portion of the capillary circulation - itchings over the system, tendency to scratch feet, toes - abrasions as come between the toes, perspiration comes at times of an excess nature in all portions of the body. These are the reflexes of this condition.
Nerve system very good, though the body shows how that at times the taxing of the body, through the physical conditions and through the over-stimulations as have been in system, brings about the distresses, the depressions, that come to the sympathetic and mental forces of the body.
IN THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS THEMSELVES, all we find show the effect of these conditions; that is, with the system overtaxed, with the system attempting to create the equilibrium necessary in body, we have an excess functioning of the whole digestive, the whole organic functioning system. In this we find at times equilibriums are unbalanced. Hence all portions of the functioning organs suffer at different times, as we have: Excess in liver functioning, indigestion, kidneys overtaxed, strains through the whole portion of the mesenteric system. Depressions in lungs, depressions in breathing, inability to get deep breaths. These are merely reflexes, not organic conditions.
Then, to bring the better for this body, we would have the specialist in this line of endeavor to remove that obstruction, that portion in the body where the injured portion of the bone structure is of the nature to keep the system unbalanced. This will give the better show for the body to be able to create equilibrium in the system. Will be necessary - better that the body be prepared for same, especially through condition of the blood.
Do that. The sooner this is done, the better we will find it will be for the body.
We are through for the present.

BACKGROUND

12/12/24 Letter from [3813]: "...Will you please arrange a date for me for a physical diagnosis, as I have been under a doctor's treatment for some time, and since the recommendations are rather severe, I would prefer hearing from you first before carrying out his instructions..."
12/18/24 EC's letter to [3813]: "...Yours of recent date received, enclosing the card. In attempting to take the reading today, for some reason, we get no connection whatever, only given the information that could not locate the body. I am returning, then, herewith, the enclosure, and perhaps we had best leave this until sometime in the middle of January, when I expect to be in New York. Will perhaps see you at that time. If I can be of assistance, I shall be glad to do so..."
6/01/25 Letter from [3813]: "...In addition to this reading, I would like to ask the following questions: 1 - Just what has caused the injury. 2 - Is my condition curable. 3 - What are the recommendations. 4 - Will my injury if neglected or not properly treated affect any other part of my body or cause any internal inflammation. 5 - Will the business venture my husband has gone into prove successful.
"I have been suffering with this injury for quite some time, having gone to several doctors and clinics but so far with no good results.
"Your name has been very kindly spoken of and recommended to me most highly by Mr. David E. Kahn and I sincerely trust you will be able to help me.
"I am enclosing your card together with check for $10.00..."
