TEXT

1. HLC: 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.
2. EC: Now, we find, while the body is very good in many respects, there are abnormal conditions with same that may be corrected, that the body in it development and physical forces may better function in the material world.
3. Now these are the conditions as we find them in this body, [4372], we are speaking of. First:
4. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this we find below the normal in its elements and constituents. Hence below the normal in furnishing to the body the rebuilding and replenishing forces in sufficient quantity to keep the normal equilibrium of the body. Hence the general weakness and debilitation as is shown throughout the system, and the constant strain as is seen on functioning organs, for without this reserve force the debility shows in the system.
5. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, this we find in many ways shows the effects of this anemic condition existing in the functioning systems, especially in those of the forces as pertain to assimilations in the various portions of body. In specific centers do we find these exhibited more than in others. In the upper cervical, first, second and in the lower lumbar and sacral. These first in cervical giving those conditions with the pains in head, and are of the reflex nature. Those in the lumbar and sacral of the specific nature, showing how that the system, in attempting to create the normal functioning of the mesenteric and the pelvic organs, brings the pressure on the central portion of cerebro-spinal centers proper and bring this distressing condition in the portions of body at times. The pains then as occur through the whole trunk portion of body are the outgrowth of these existent conditions.
6. IN FUNCTIONING OF ORGANS PROPER, brain forces very good.
7. The organs of sensory system under the strain of the blood and nerve condition in system.
8. The lungs show the effect of the conditions, though not organically affected, yet the circulation as is seen through the pulmonaries shows the effect of the nerve and the blood condition.
9. In the digestive system, stomach, from the attempts of this portion of body to meet the needs of same, have grown then size smaller than normal, also tipped in the position to that wherein we find there is the tendency for foods to ferment and give improper digestive conditions in the system.
10. The liver engorged, not organically, in the derivative forces of the condition as is apparent; rather that of the functioning of same, attempting to function under the existent conditions in body. The assimilations first then caused the condition. Then the lesion formed in the lower lumbar and sacral gave the specific incentive for the functionings as are apparent.
11. Then, to bring the relief to the body, we would first, through the deep manipulation, osteopathically given, remove those conditions in the sacral, lumbar, upper dorsal and cervical region, by the adjustment and the stimulation of secretions and of circulations in the portions of body. The lower dorsal then would also bring the correction for the condition in stomach proper, which should then be bound in place by being taped, or bandage about the body until same is held in position nominally (position of stomach referred to).
12. Then apply, while these are being taken, those properties as are found in Radio-Active Appliance, with the Tincture of Iron being carried in the system. The plate, or the negative pole, should be that attached to the umbilicus, and the positive being then the right and left ankle alternately.
13. Do this, and we will bring the better, normal conditions to this body.
14. At least fourteen of such osteopathic treatments should be necessary.
15. The Appliance to the body should be at least two hours each EVENING preferably, though may be taken at other times if preferable.
16. The bandage should be worn as long as necessary to keep the position proper in stomach.
17. The diet, being those foods easily digested. Not too much of meats, but sufficient to keep a normal equilibrium in the body, for blood is the blood builder in this condition, and the food values must be those of assimilation with the existent conditions.
18. Do this. We will bring the better conditions for this body.
19. We are through for the present.
