In the NERVOUS SYSTEM, or systems, do WE find the greater
distresses. While the relaxations and the adjustments in
relieving pressures along the spine have often the desired
effect, to REMAIN - or to KEEP same - this is that which
brings the distresses. These conditions WE find to exist:
In the present period changes are coming about in the
physical forces of the body, an alteration in the character
and manner of eliminations in the system. This produces a
fullness in the lumbar and sacral regions, with the organs
of elimination, with the organs of the pelvis, that makes
for nervous irritation, and the body in attempting to ADJUST
itself finds these conditions, or this irritation, as an
AGGRAVATING condition to the cerebro-spinal, and MOSTLY
to the sympathetic nerve system, THROUGH the action of the
cerebro-spinal nerves, especially in the 2nd, 3rd and 4th
lumbar, and in the sacral region. In the reactions from
these to the body, we find these produce distresses through
the digestive system occasionally. More often does it give
that fullness in the locomotion, or locomotaries, that makes
for distress through the small of the back, through the
sides, the lower limbs, tendency of feeling fullness and
tiredness in the feet, the limbs, especially if there's an
over-activity or an under-activity these may occur in varied
forms.
In the ORGANS of the body - Brain forces good. A natural
inclination, from experience, to be a leader, and one that is
VERY particular as to system, and systematic activities (for
the body was a soldier often).
In the organs of the sensory system, THROUGH the sympathetic
disturbance as from pelvis and lumbars, we find these make
for fullness in throat at times, irritation to the organs
of the sensory system, over-sensitive, and as the body is
inclined to be especially sympathetic in INTUITIVE natures -
that is, where sympathy is aroused in individuals, or groups
- the sympathy of the body, WITH its intuitive forces, tends
to make a full activity in that direction, giving the body
especial activities in that direction.
In the lungs, bronchial, larynx - this occurs from this same
reflex force at times; not as so much causing DISORDERS as
being AGGRAVATING TO the body, in feeling that it exists and
not just know where, or how it affects the system!
Heart's action, as given.
In the digestive system, we find there are PERIODS of
disorders in this direction, but not that as may be termed
even chronic, or even SYMPATHETIC; rather REFLEX conditions.
The eliminations as for the alimentary canal have often given
the body troubles. These are bettered, yet the conditions
return, producing an acidity for the lower portion,
especially in the colon. Here we find there is a TENDENCY
for prolapsus in the descending colon; not a full prolapsus,
but a tendency in that direction.
Then, in meeting the needs of the conditions, and in making
these - as we find - more of a direct activity, so that the
RESPONSES are more sure:
We would not change from the manipulative forces, or the
activities towards the corrections in that direction; rather
would we change the MANNER of the application of same, and
add to these those of properties taken internally that may
act WITH that as is administered for the correction of the
nerve forces and their reflex action to the organs of the
body. We would give DEEPER manipulations in the LUMBAR
and sacral region, and RELAX same before this manipulation
and adjustment is given (in lumbar and sacral region) with
those of hot wet packs; not just apply electrical forces or
vibrations, but apply hot packs along the lumbar and sacral
region, and THEN give the manipulations and adjustments
following same. These we would do at least ONCE each week;
that is, the hot packs. We wouldn't alter the periods in
taking the treatments otherwise.
We would take internally that prepared as this:
To 4 ounces of simple syrup, add:
Tincture of Valerian...................1 ounce,
Elixir of Calisaya...................1/2 ounce,
10% Solution Iodide of Potassium......10 minims,
10% Solution Bromide of Potassium.....20 minims,
Tincture of Capsici....................3 minims.
Shake solution together before the dosage is taken. Take
this particularly when there are those dull, achy reactions
over the system. In these periods it may be taken every
two to three hours, half a teaspoonful in a little water,
or taken and followed with water. At other periods we would
take it about three times, or four times each day - see?
We would, at least once each week, also use those vibrations
of the Infra Red Ray. This we would apply particularly
to the solar plexus center, for about thirty minutes, at
a distance from the body of at least thirty to thirty-six
inches.
Do that. Ready for questions.
(Q) What is holding me back?
(A) This is as has been described, that inability to make
the perfect coordination between the eliminating systems
with the changes as have come over the body. See? These
are natural conditions.
We are through for the present.
