EC: Yes, we have the body here, [
5560]. Now, we find there
are many conditions as are disturbing and disturbed by the
physical conditions existent with this body. While the
basis, or the condition as itself, as may be termed, the
condition is the result of the poor eliminations as have
existed, and as do exist in the physical forces of the body,
especially as is related to the liver and the effect the
poisons as have accumulated in system bring upon the physical
organism; especially as to muscular forces, nerve centers and
tendons through the locomotories, and through a portion of
the side itself. This, as we find, began first in a form of
malaria as attacked the system, and the result was of a slow
fever that the body had, but did not give in, succumb, or pay
as much attention to the conditions as the body should have.
This, naturally, changed the blood supply, the pressure, the
heart's action, the respiration, and these - we find - are
disordered in their functioning, though are not the cause;
yet are at times apparently that affected most. With this
change as came about, we had then that of the tendencies as
from inflammation through the colon, especially - and the
kidneys and the bladder not carrying off as MUCH of the
refuses, or of the poisons from the system, these tended to
be taken up again in the circulation, and has produced that
of first a catarrhal condition, then that of the rheumatic
effect; so it may be termed, then, catarrhal rheumatism from
congestion in liver, as has attacked the blood supply,
changed the effect of the nerve system, and brought about the
general disorders in the body. The effect same has produced
upon the functioning organs themselves - all are functioning
under the stress and strain, which makes for an accentuation
in their activity at times. As is seen, the appetite, the
excretions from nose, throat, bronchials; the eyes burn,
headaches, heavy feet - and the pain along the side,
especially that of the left side; this coming more from that
of the indigestion, and of the effect as produced in the
colon itself.
Now, in meeting the needs of the conditions, as due to the
standing of the condition, the age, as respecting the effects
in the system, the ability for the recuperative forces, that
that activity as will be necessary to make for resuscitation
in the blood and nerve supply - this may not be expected to
be accomplished in JUST a few days, or in a week or two.
While, with the proper administration, within a week to three
weeks we will find a great improvement, and a relief from the
distresses in locomotory centers, in extremities, in the
heart's action, in the ability for the body to rest easier;
but the body will NOT be entirely well.
In making administrations, we would do as this:
First we would set up eliminations and drainages in the
system, by first THOROUGHLY relaxing the body through those
of the fume baths, as would carry those of Epsom Salts.
These should be taken at least every day until two or three
are taken. Be mindful that the head is kept perfectly cool
and that the body temperature is not raised too high during
these first two or three as may be given. Then every OTHER
day, until we find the body THOROUGHLY relaxed, this
requiring five to six such treatments. Then we would REST,
after that - keep off the feet - until we begin with those of
the liver packs of the oil as will be used over this portion
of the system, until there is the reaction from same. During
the periods when those of the sweats are given, we would take
at least two colonic irrigations, and let the diets be -
during this first period - those that are of the vegetable
and of the pre-digested foods. When the liver packs are
begun, we would also use those that act as an eliminant and
as a solvent for that of uric acid, and of those conditions
as gather in system as effects of same. This, we will find,
would be in the Toris Compound - two quantities being made,
one being made with the simple syrup, the other compounded
with the spirits frumenti - then the two combined together,
and WITH this - after this is made - we would add to the two
solutions those of one-quarter ounce of syrup of rhubarb.
The dose of this would be two teaspoonsful at least four
times each day.
Keep up, then, the manipulations as will DISTRIBUTE the blood
supply through the system in such a manner as to keep strain
off of heart, and to remove those conditions as exist in
lumbar and cervical. Ready for questions.
(Q) Has the body been eating properly?
(A) The diet as has been, has been helpful. As WE have
given, we would change - during this period - to those as
have been outlined. Then we may give that as will be
NECESSARY for the KEEPING of the conditions, as the
IMPROVEMENTS progress.
(Q) Does smoking affect the body?
(A) This merely adds to the amount of drosses to be
eliminated; though MODERATION in smoking - under conditions -
will be helpful, rather than detrimental; but an excess will
make for distresses, especially in heart's action.
(Q) Does any cause come from feet, especially?
(A) Rather the conditions in limbs and feet come from other
causes.
(Q) When should the manipulations begin?
(A) As they are relaxing the body, before they begin with
the packs.
(Q) How often should they be given?
(A) Every day.
We are through for the present.
