IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, OR SYSTEMS - here we find the greater
cause for the distresses, and this has existed in the system
for times and times back, and with the pressure existent
on ganglia, these have so diminished the impulses from the
radial centers as to hinder the amount of blood supply to
those portions of the system in the intestinal tract, in
the pelvis, that these have produced LESIONS that cause the
greater distress, and those effects to the extremities, to
the exterior of the circulation, IN capillary, IN emunctory,
IN the lymph - these are effects, or the system attempting to
adjust itself. The ganglia that are disturbed are those in
the 11th and 12th dorsal, in the 4th and 5th lumbar, in the
sacral, as also sympathetically those in the upper cervical,
wherein both hypogastric and pneumogastric plexus are
disturbed sympathetically; for with the pneumogastric's
reaction through the system, these carry the distresses to
the system, affecting sympathetically only the sympatheticals
and the sensory system. Then, there may be said, most
anything COULD be the matter with the body, though the
conditions radiate from those ganglia as are subluxated or
impinged, and are lateral impingements, and are deep. These
have formed the LESIONS in pelvis and in the INTESTINAL
system, as affect mesenteric and vegetative nerve reflexes.
IN THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS THEMSELVES, brain forces
react - react - ABOVE normal, yet DEPRESSIONS there prevent
a normal impulse in SOME directions.
Sympathetic system, as effective to the organs OF sensory
system, also show their responses, as does the tissue in
the soft portions of the head. These are reflex.
Throat, bronchials, lungs, - these show the effect of the
disturbed circulation and of the poisons as are carried in
system at times.
Heart's action, as given, that subnormal.
Digestive system is as of the effect of a nerve disturbance,
and is nervous digestions, as is indicated in the duodenum
as WELL as at times in the cardiac end of stomach. This a
spasmodic reaction from nerve disturbance in the mesenteric
system.
In the liver and the digestive system as related to the
secretions necessary for proper assimilations, these working
under nerve tension, show the distress to which they are put
at times. Days the body feels better, others there is seen
distresses and heaviness throughout. Pains across the whole
of the diaphragm, as well as through the ileum plexus.
In meeting the needs, the variations in the whole of
eliminations must be first taken into consideration; for with
distresses that affect the glands - as WELL as the organs
- these must be considered in the light of the necessary
coordination of the eliminating system to that produced
in the system, creating the character of that necessary
vibratory force to meet the NEEDS as the system attempts to
adjust itself and carry off the drosses; or else we may form
those conditions where poisons separate themselves, PRODUCING
that of a plethora in any soft tissue or emunctory body where
the poisons would accumulate.
Then, we would first rest the body from those of much
exercise, giving those of the eliminant that may be obtained
through those of citrous fruits only; oranges, lemons,
grapefruit and such. This should be continued for at least
a period of six to seven days. WATER may be taken, but
NOT those of heavy or of undigested foods. Milk in SMALL
quantities. PREFERABLY, though, that of the dried, or of
the malted nature.
Then, we would begin with that of very small doses of Oil of
Juniper, that that condition in the hepatic circulation, in
the mesenteric system, in those of the pelvic organs, may
receive that stimuli as will aid the activities of the
kidneys, relieving the pressure from that of the improper
vibratory rate between kidneys and liver. This should be
kept up only for three days, beginning on the third day of
the citrous fruit eliminant with manipulations to REDUCE
those pressures in the system.
After the Juniper is given, and the body rests, THEN begin
- every third day - to make those corrections in the lower
dorsal, the lumbar and the sacral, as will relieve this
pressure that causes the disturbances through the system.
Leaving off those of the stimuli for the system as related
to the kidney and liver, and begin with the diet that will
aid the body to get the proper equilibrium in an alkalin
reaction; giving meat JUICES but plenty of those of the oils
that aid in CLEANSING and building up the system. Olive
oil, codliver oil, juices of the liver, also those of tripe
- whether hog or beef - PREFERABLY the juice from the hog
tripe. THIS will aid in REDUCING, especially the plethora
condition in the emunctories, and retard that of the pressure
in the nerves as related to the replenishing of blood
building materials.
Do this, and we will bring the near normal condition for this
body, [
5458]. Ready for questions.
(Q) What should be the dosage of the Juniper and how often
given?
(A) One to two minims once each day.
(Q) What osteopath would be best?
(A) One that knows his business! and will follow the
suggestions as are given, not follow their own!
That is all the questions.
Do this as has been given, and we will find relief, and much
may be accomplished by this body, will it respond - or react
to that as has JUST been given. We are through.
