EC: Yes, we have the body here, [
5430]. Now, we find
conditions abnormal for this body. These, we find, are
rather of the subtle nature, involving the nervous system,
the functioning organs, and the whole of the locomotory
system as related to the brain's reaction to same. The
conditions, as we find, were first of minor nature; then
causing only that of improper eliminations, and the
functioning and coordinating of the eliminating systems were
involved. Then, under stress or strain as came through
overtaxation, physically and mentally, there was the giving
away of the equilibrium as related to the central nervous
system, as related to the solar plexus and the raising of the
spiritual and mental forces to an even balance in the system;
the result being not WHOLLY, as has been termed, a clot; but
rather the shattering, by that of starvation, to a nerve
plexus, as causes those of improper distribution of the
centers in the brain of the nervous system, and that of
locomotion from that of the brain itself. The results, as
has been seen, are those of improper distribution, first of
forces as related to reflexes in the nerve system. Then we
have had those of disturbance in the blood supply, where,
with the overtaxing as first caused the condition, the
attempt of the system to eliminate through that of the
lymphatic circulation many of the poisons as should have been
eliminated through alimentary canal and through the kidneys
and bladder. In this condition we have found that of the
swelling of the extremities, of pains in portions of the
system, of abrasions in the cuticle itself, the epidermis
becoming rather that of an inflammation as carried by that of
the lymph's circulation. A low pressure as related to
heart's action, a high pulsation, and then a high blood
pressure.
In the activities to the ORGANS themselves, all become over
active or sluggish. These, then, representing that of the
extremes in the attempt to keep an equilibrium in the system.
In the activities as may be had for the betterment of the
conditions of the body, we will find - while these would be
SLOW, were these taken in their proper relations one to
another, we may aid materially in reestablishing an
equilibrium in the system, where that the reflexes will be
nearer normal, and where we may build for a blood supply that
will not be exaggerated in its activities - whether for
lungs, heart, or digestive system. Neither will there be an
excess of those forces as call for the creating of a plethora
condition, through inflammation created in the organs
themselves, whether from that of the activities of the glands
as build for those portions of the system that add to the
resuscitating forces of the body, or whether those of the
replenishing of the nerve plasm itself, or brain's reaction.
First, we would begin with those of a massage of the
cerebro-spinal system, THROUGHOUT, from the end of the spine
to the base of the brain, every other evening, with those
properties of Balsam of Sulphur. This not to be made too wet
nor too dry, but is to be massaged into the centers along the
cerebro-spinal system, being mindful that the whole time
these are being kept there is not the reaction from too much
of any forces that may be taken within the system in food
properties that would not coordinate with the creation of the
change in vibrations in the body itself. No MEATS, but
rather those of the vegetable, nuts and fruits - but beware
of apples. In those of the raw fruits, of the raw
vegetables, nuts may be added. No oils or grease should be
taken, save that as will aid in the eliminations through the
alimentary canal. These we would take - of the oils - as act
only as lubricants, and as will aid in cleansing the colon -
that needs attention - particularly later on.
These, we will find, by the use of those of the alkalin
Petrolagar, with that of the Russian oil - alternate the
doses of these - which would be tablespoonful of each once
each day. Take two, then, together, of the oil - two of the
Petrolagar, but alternate each day, see?
Do that. Then, when these have been given for fifteen
treatments; that is, massages - then we may give further
instructions for the corrective forces for the body of
[
5430]. We are through for the present.

REPORTS
9/24/30 Letter: "I have noticed considerable improvement
since taking these treatments, and am anxious to follow them
up."
GD's note: He requested a check-up reading. Apparently the
first reading fitted his condition, mentioning correct
symptoms, although there were no questions submitted nor any
personal contact - just the mailed request for the reading,
referred by Mr. [
378].
10/27/30 See
5430-2, appointment for which he verified but
still submitted no questions nor any details about his
condition.
