TEXT

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 suggestions for help and relief of this body; answering the questions, as I ask them:
EC: Yes, we have the body here, [5382].
As we find, there are disturbing conditions and these arise from two sources. There has been a subluxation produced in the 8th and 9th dorsal center, this by a strain or a wrench or a hurt. This has caused poor circulation through the areas of the pelvis and from the activities there infectious forces have arisen. These have produced in the lymph circulation a nerve tension and then the body-mind has indicated an unfavorable reaction here.
These have brought about nerve tensions which produce on various portions of the body a rash, which causes great irritation to the body.
We would have at least six corrections in the areas indicated, coordinating the upper dorsal and through the brachial and the upper portion of the cervical with the corrections in the 8th and 9th dorsal.
Also use douches in the vagina every other day. Use a variation, once use Atomidine, one teaspoonful - no more - in a quart and a half of water, then in the next time use Glyco-Thymoline, a tablespoonful to a quart of body-temperature water, using only a Fountain Syringe.
Do apply over the areas of the rash "DDD" cream and then, when ready to retire, dust off with the powder containing Stearate of Zinc and Balsam.
Do these and we will rid these conditions and prevent greater distresses, for we do not find organic disorders.
Do that.
Ready for questions.
(Q) Please suggest a corrective diet.
(A) Take more raw vegetables, often with gelatin. Not too much meats, never much of acid-producing foods; that is, white bread, too much starches eliminate from the system. For these tend to irritate the infectious forces which are produced by poor eliminations, by circulation and conditions through the pelvic activities of the system. But these, as we find, if they are followed through will help, will eliminate, will correct.
Do not eat white bread or white potatoes. Do not take cereals and fruit juices at the same meal. Do not use milk or cream in coffee or tea. Do not take carbonated drinks of any kind.
(Q) Who would you suggest to make the treatments?
(A) Ober.
(Q) Any mental and spiritual advice?
(A) Keep as constructive as possible. Don't ever condemn self; don't condemn others! Forgive as you would be forgiven. Keep sweet!
We are through.

BACKGROUND

GD found [5382] very secretive, reluctant to formulate any questions to have asked; said she would send in a case report later. 1. What is the source of my physical disturbance? 2. What is causing the skin condition - what can be done to relieve external irritation? 3. Suggest a corrective diet.

REPORTS

10/10/47 Report requested from her and from Dr. Ober.
10/15/47 Dr. Vincent Ober's report: "My provisional diagnosis was cystitis, pyelitis, dermatitis. I gave her six treatments and had poor cooperation. I am unable to contact her for results...the subluxations were found in the 8th and 9th dorsal."
2/18/49 GD's remarks: "The girl made her appointment for the reading by phone and only appeared at the A.R.E. office a few minutes before the appointed time, talked to me a few moments concerning questions and was ushered into the 'reading room'. It was the first and only time EC saw her. Of course, as usual, he made no conscious 'examination' of the patient."
