THE BLOOD SUPPLY, in this we find there are signs of the poor
eliminations that are produced by improper functioning of
portions of the system, especially through the liver and the
kidneys. These conditions, in turn, are produced by that
of a malarial condition as existed in the system, and this,
assisted with those subligations in the cerebrospinal system,
brings about the suppression of nerve energy and nerve
refraction until improper incentives are given in the
functioning of these organs. This, then, producing this
taxation. With the taxation and the surcharges, as it were,
to the elimination or emunctory system, the inflammation as
is caused in the lymphatic circulation from the blood supply,
or the white blood in the exterior, or that of the capillary
circulation, brings the condition to the joints and centers
in the portions of the body, especially those of the lower
plexus and the upper brachial plexus, and that center in the
lower that gives off to the lower extremities. Hence we have
a form of inflammation in the nerve ends about the joints
that gives distress at times, quick movements or any reaction
bringing distress - poor elimination - condition exhibited in
the blood supply and in the lymphatic circulation - seat of
these in subligations in cerebrospinal system - reflex of
same shown through the blood supply and hepatic circulation.
IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, in this we find many of the seats of
disorders in the system. In specific cerebrospinal centers,
we find those of the cervicals (4th, 5th and 6th), in the
dorsals (8th, 9th, 10th and 11th), and in the lower lumbar
and upper sacral, the greater distress. These, as we see, we
find subligations in portions - with distresses caused in the
lymphatics and in the hepatic circulation, we produce an over
supply or over pressure of the forces to the brain. Hence we
have nerve headaches, or a form of sick headache - though not
always produced from a condition in the stomach, yet nervous
indigestion also arises at times. So, when the body becomes
overtaxed physically, overtaxed socially, overtaxed mentally,
these are as reactions - headaches, from the existing
condition in the nerve system. See?
IN THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS, with this existent
condition, we see we have some refractory reaction to the
nerves of the sensory system - as is seen, the condition
as exists in the eyes at times, the ears, and in the taste.
These are refractory reactions and not specific conditions.
These will be removed by the correction of subluxations in
the cervicals and in the dorsals.
The conditions in the lungs, bronchials, larynx, are very
good, save where congestion shows some at the present time
- though, naturally, from a condition that is on the border
of that of a nerve reaction, or nerve subluxations, the
conditions through the lungs, while not of an alarming
condition, show that full breath is seldom taken. Hence
we have toxins again produced in system by the lack of deep
inhalations or exhalations of all gases or of all poisons
from the lungs.
The stomach and digestive organs show the effect, rather, of
that of the nerve condition in the body. Hence disorders,
rather than disturbances - save as are seen from time to
time.
The liver dormant in its action, with the tendency towards
that of producing taxation in the colon, through inactivity
of the eliminations. Taxation to the kidneys cause
suppression at times of urine, and some inflammation produced
through the system - at which times we find the system picks
up through the circulation those of the acids that should
be eliminated through these organs (through the kidneys)
and carries them back in the circulation.
To overcome, then, these conditions - which may be removed
by a little care, a little attention, a little thought taken
to the diet as is necessary to meet the needs of the body -
first these subligations in the cerebrospinal system should
be corrected. This should be corrected, then, through
osteopathic adjustments and treatments. It would take at
least thirteen to twenty-six (13 to 26) such treatments, and
they should be given at least twice to three times each week.
After at least thirteen (13) treatments have been given,
begin with those properties as will be found in Toris
Compound, and take at least three quantities - that is, that
would be prepared at least three times, see? This should
be prepared with the syrup compound, as these may be taken -
and take at least two teaspoonsful twice each day, see? This
will produce eliminations through the system, overcoming this
taxation, ridding the system of the uric acid, ridding the
system of those conditions that produce the irritation in
the nerve system, especially in the centers.
As to diet - rather keep close to the vegetable diet.
Meat in small quantities may be taken, but never eat too
much sweets! Sweets to the body, until these conditions
are eliminated and the corrections made, will be very
detrimental. No tea, though coffee may be taken - coca
colas and soft drinks, especially where these are made with
carbonated water - but not too much ice cream or things of
that nature, see?
Do this. Follow this out with care - and the exercises for
the body. We find that the exercises such as the sitting-up
exercise when the body first arises of a morning would be
well, for this will bring strength to the lungs, vitality to
the blood supply, and new life, as it were, to the muscular
forces of the body. Take, then, at least five to ten minutes
of exercise of the arms and limbs when the body first arises
each morning.
Within sixty (60) days we should find the body perfectly
normal.
Do that. We are through for the present.
