TEXT

1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also the treatment for the cure and relief of same.
2. EC: Now we find there are some abnormal conditions with this body. Some specific conditions in the system that affect directly and indirectly the functioning of organs in the system, and through this produce the distress in the physical forces.
3. Now these are conditions as we find them in this body, [4104], we are speaking of. First:
4. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY IN THE BODY, we find this below normal in the supply of red blood in the system. We find the constituents of the blood below normal with the condition in numbers of the blood cell.
5. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, we find the seat of the trouble as produced in this body. There has been in times back a condition that brought distress in a slight manner in and near the end of the spinal column. Second joint in coccyx. This in the deflected circulation as produced by the system forming lesions to ward against conditions has brought about other lesion in the 3rd and 4th lumbar. Reflexly through the secondary ganglion of the solar plexus this brings distress to the hypogastric center, reflexly again through this same condition, producing in the pneumogastric a form of digestion that has been taxing to the system. Through the combination of these conditions the blood supply in lachrymal ducts has been depleted. This gives some forms of distress in the liver and produces the inclination of the system to become subject to constipation. This taxing again the blood system by depleting the efficiency of digestion and also of carrying in the system toxins from the own system. Hence the condition in capillary circulation. Hence the condition as produced through the pelvic organs from this same condition; this taxing also to the lower lumbar gives reflexes to the sensory organism, as is shown in the body. This rather a sympathetic condition for the body overtaxes its mental forces and partakes of the sympathetic condition over the body, or becoming neurotic in the effect, reflex forces.
6. IN THE ORGANS OF THE BODY, no organic conditions as we find, save as affected through nerve reflexes and nerve conditions in the body. This we find then needs that correction that will bring the normal flow of nerve energy and blood supply to the organs of the body to bring the conditions necessary for normal functioning.
7. Release then through chiropractic or osteopathic manipulation those impingements in the coccyx and lumbar region, relaxing and stimulating the centers along the whole cerebrospinal system that relate to the excretory system. Also taking in the body those properties that will give the diet, the desire for appetite, and the diet shall be in accord with those properties that bring rebuilding to the whole general system. Stimulating through circulation, taking these properties:

   Syrup of Sarsaparilla..................1/2 ounce,
Fluid Extract Stillingia...............1/2 ounce,
Fluid Extract Yellow Dock Root.........1/2 ounce,
Fluid Extract Polk Root................1/4 ounce,
Sufficient simple syrup to make..........8 ounces.

8. The dose would be half teaspoonful three times each day. May be taken morning and evening and upon retiring. Before meal, morning and evening, and just before retiring, taking the adjustments every day until the corrections are made.
9. Through this we will bring the normal condition to this body, [4104].
