In the NERVOUS system, here we find the greater causes for
distress, or that which may be eliminated in the present and
prevent those disorders that may arise - or ARE arising -
from these pressures. There is, then, existent in the lower
lumbar region - the 2nd, 3rd lumbar area - that which makes
for some impingements there, that makes for the heaviness
that apparently comes to the lower limbs, and disturbing
forces as related to the lower digestive system, making for
periods at times when the nervousness upsets the digestion
and the eliminating system. Reflexly, these also disturb
the coordinating between the sympathetic and cerebro-spinal
system, through these making for disorders that appear as
specific conditions in organs of the sensory system, or
making for weaknesses in the functioning of these organs -
as the eyes, the ears, the respiratory system, as related to
the throat and head, and those effects that make for at times
insomnia, or the distress of at all periods being easily
aroused, or not sleeping as well as the body should. These,
as we see, are then SYMPTOMS, rather than the disorders
direct.
In the functioning of the ORGANS themselves - brain forces
very good. The discernments of the reaction in the sensory
system are good, as related to the active forces of the
cerebro-spinal nervous system; yet these pressures - from
those conditions existent in the cerebro-spinal system - make
for an irritation to the sympathetics, so that the body has
at times those periods of worrying over conditions that never
happen!
In the action of the throat, lungs, and the respiratory
system - as given, these are affected at times, though
only sympathetically.
The heart's action is good.
The digestive system is disturbed at periods.
The action of the hepatic circulation is very good, save when
upset in the action of the digestion and the eliminations
become poor.
In meeting, then, the needs of the conditions, that those may
be warred against - or making the corrections that would make
for the PREVENTATIVE of conditions which - arising from these
- would give distresses, especially to the left lower limb,
in the form of actions that may be called, from the nervous
pressure, producing a reaction in that particular area; in
relieving same, then:
We would find that the osteopathic adjustments, with the
reliving of the pressures in the lumbar area, also the
correction of those in the 3rd and 4th dorsal and throughout
the cervical area, would relieve that pressure to the
sympathetic system, bringing for the whole system a better
reaction and relieving the pressures. These, as we would
find, would be better to be had at least twice each week -
until at least thirteen to fourteen had been taken.
In the matter of the diets, these are kept very well for
the body in the present. These would only be changed as
necessary for the corrections, as they are made in the
system.
Ready for questions.
(Q) What should be done to improve the eyesight?
(A) We will find that with the correction of those pressures
in lumbar, in the upper dorsal and through the cervical area,
all functionings of the sensory system (of which, of course,
the eyesight is a part) will be strengthened. The vision
will be strengthened, as well as that burning sensation will
be relieved - that comes from the poor elimination, by the
pressure in this particular area - the 3rd dorsal, the 3rd
and 5th cervical.
(Q) Is an internal adjustment necessary to relieve this
pressure?
(A) In the lower lumbar area, this would be better were the
external and internal made as an adjustment together.
(Q) Please explain just what is meant by external and
internal application at the same time.
(A) Those conditions that exist in the lumbar area, where
it makes for adjustments with the functioning of the pelvic
organs, will make for an EASY adjustment if these are made
together; that is, as the adjustments in the external - or in
the lumbar area - are made, in the cerebro-spinal, see, those
in the organs themselves will be relieved by these being
adjusted at the same time - see?
(Q) No operation necessary?
(A) No operation necessary, if these adjustments are made.
This will relieve the pressures from the periods, that make
for distresses to the system through this pressure existent
- which was made from those conditions at the childbirth, in
those reactions.
(Q) Any further advice for this body at this time?
(A) These we would take; for, as given, they are minor
in the present - but with the irritation that comes from
pressure, and the general reaction to the nervous system,
these may be EASILY adjusted in the present, while - if they
are allowed to become such as to become a constitutional
condition, or that necessary for the alleviating of pain by
the use of any applications, these would make for distresses
that would make it harder to relieve. In fifteen to sixteen
treatments, this should be a near perfectly normal body, and
relieving these distresses, AIDING - as given - those minor
reflex conditions.
Do that.
We are through for the present. [See GD's note below.]
