IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, we find there are existent subluxations,
or impingements existent in the cerebrospinal system, that
has had much to do with the position and condition in the
alimentary canal, and the effects as are created in the
vegetative nerve system. In the 9th, 10th and 12th dorsal
centers do we particularly find these conditions existent; so
that the reflexes from these have prevented that activity of
the whole of the intestinal system, as to carry on the proper
peristaltic activity through the system. The tendency of a
decreased circulation, making for a high hepatic circulation,
especially in the upper portion. The tendency of the
pressures has been to deflect the activity of the kidneys and
the liver; so that at times there is an over-activity in the
kidneys, then again a suppression of the proper functioning.
The condition in the liver, spleen, pancreas, and the
activity of the system as regarding assimilation, also
becomes deflected, and we have produced a prolapsus in the
ascending, or at the cross of the transverse and ascending
colon. This forms, then, the basis of the conditions as
disturb this body, as we find them. The conditions as result
from same, whether as to indigestion or from a quick heart
action, or the conditions in the head at times, THESE
are reflex - and with the REMOVAL of conditions PRODUCING
same, we would find a much nearer normal functioning of
the body throughout. It will be found necessary that those
impingements be relieved, as well as applications made for
the conditions as have been produced, but for PERMANENT
relief the CAUSE of conditions must be removed. This
will require time, patience and persistence, and at least
sufficient time must be taken would there be the permanent
relief to form for the system that of the strengthening
of the muscular forces of the nerve plexus as have
failed in their activity through the inactive forces
from impingements in the cerebrospinal centers.
In meeting, then, the needs of the conditions, we would apply
those forces in manipulative or corrective measures as to
relieve those conditions existent in the lower dorsal, and
necessarily the relaxing of those in the upper dorsal and
cervical to be in coordination with the rest of the system.
We would be mindful of the diet, that the tendency is to
create more of lacteals and less of the acid in system; also
keeping those cleansing solutions, or those of the cleansing
OF colon; so that there is less toxics in the system.
These, as we find, will bring about a much nearer NORMAL
condition for this body, [
5601]. Ready for questions.
(Q) What causes the continual aching?
(A) That of the metabolism of the system. The disturbed
circulation.
(Q) Why does the body not sleep well?
(A) Produced by the nerve pressures, that tend to make for
improper coordination between sympathetic and cerebrospinal
system; for the cerebrospinal is to the whole of the physical
body as of that of IMPULSE to carry out conditions of the
living physical organism, while the sympathetic system is
rather that of the imaginative, or akin to the psychic and
to the operative forces of the brain centers and impulses.
Without coordination, these bring restlessness and insomnia.
(Q) How often should manipulations be given?
(A) It will be found that as much rest as possible will be
needed in between the manipulations, which shall be at least
once each week for CORRECTIVE measures and at least once
or twice each week for the general relaxing for responsive
measures in the system.
(Q) How often should the irrigations be given?
(A) That depends upon the amount of diet and the amount of
activity of the physical body.
(Q) What should the diet be?
(A) As indicated, keep that more of the building for
lacteals; that is, lacteals in this sense meaning not
only that of the non-acid, but that builds for the proper
character of fermentations as take place in an organism for
ITS assimilation. Not only do we say foods as enter the
stomach must be those of an alkalin, for those of the first
of the glands as secrete are alkalin in nature, but when food
has been acted upon by the digestive fluids of the stomach,
they turn again into the system, or should, in an alkalin
reaction, but of the NATURE more of lacteals, or of a milky,
carrying those of an alkali, but alkali only in reaction of
the nature of that known as ALCOHOLIC in its content. This,
then, shall be kept in a state where assimilations are well
balanced, so that as circulation picks up same there is not
ACID carried in the system; keeping an equal balance between
the NECESSARY forces of a white and red blood supply, and
NOT an OVER activity - as is exhibited in this system, of
a portion or character of white blood that makes for the
toughness, or the condition where there is an attempting
to ward off poisons assimilated through the mesenteric and
through that of the vegetative system.
(Q) Regarding the broken leg, is there a perfect recovery?
(A) The conditions, as we find as exist, are in the nature
of a perfect recovery; but the troubles being that the system
attempting to create that of the perfect coagulating forces
as related to the structural portion of system, as well as of
the cartilaginous and the ossification as is necessary, takes
place in the knitting of bone or of structural portions -
these being low, the condition has been much SLOWER than
SHOULD have been, under a NORMAL condition in the system.
That is all the questions.
We are through for the present.
