TEXT

1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time, giving the cause of the existing conditions; also the treatment for the cure and relief of this body. You will answer any questions I may ask you regarding same.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here.
3. Now, we find the physical conditions of this body very good in many respects and manners. There are rather the indications of corrections being made than of abnormal conditions; though there are many conditions to be met in the physical forces of the body, these are in a great measure being cared for.
4. These, then, are the conditions as we find them with this body, [5698], present in this room, we are speaking of. First:
5. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this we find above the ORDINARY, and near normal for one of the conditions or age, or indiscretions as are apparent to have been existent in the body in times past. The pressure being nearly normal. The elements and constituents show that the body is creating that sufficient through the replenishing forces to care for the needs of the body, and in most cycles storing energy in the system, and the vitality good.
6. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, in this we find the body very good, yet the greatest deficiencies are existent in this portion of the body, for there becomes an unequal balance occasionally in certain of the centers in the distribution of nerve energy, and were those exercises as are accorded the body - and that as produces and assists in the eliminations from the system - kept more in accord, there would be found better coordination between the distribution of nerve energy and that laxness as is felt in the locomotory centers, especially, would be bettered in the body. This would be obtained by the unison of the exercise to meet the needs of changed circulation that occurs when the body rests, or is ready to rest, and when the brain forces and the solar plexus are to assume full charge, as it were, of the activities in the body; that is, then, those exercises that would relieve brain pressure in evening, and that as would set the body in motion in or at morning time.
7. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS, brain forces are very good.
8. The organs of the sensory system show exceptional susceptibility to nerve reaction in the body, though the strain incurred in the sensory plexus will be relieved much by producing better coordination in nerve system.
9. Throat, bronchials, lungs, larynx, are good in coordinating with the messages of the sympathetic nerve system.
10. The digestive system very good, and the body an exceptional dietician for self and for others.
11. The functioning of the liver, the spleen, the pancreas, shows the effect of indiscretion, but, as given, the body, through its ability to retain and build up energy, is repairing even those conditions as have been created in the functioning of these portions of the system - the mesenteric system, the kidneys, and these show the susceptibility again of a repaired circulation, yet with the change in that as necessary to equalize the equilibrium of the nerve reactions will show even the better ability to coordinate with the rest of the system.
12. No medicinal properties, then, for the body.
13. No change would be given for that as is accorded through either mental or through dietetic activity in the body. Only that as would be necessary to create the more perfect equilibrium in distribution of nerve reaction, or nerve incentive to the body.
14. Exercising, then, the lower limbs in the evening. The walking, the activities are good, yet that circular motion as may be produced in the lower portion of the cerebro-spinal system will bring about a reaction beneficial to the body. The exercises and the in taking of fresh air in lungs, and the exercising of those plexuses above the upper portion, or above the diaphragm of morning, will bring the better coordinating of the solar plexus, the brachial plexus, and those activities of the head, and there will not be the reoccurrence so often of that DULLNESS that is experienced by the body by nerve taxation during the day, and the body will rest even to that position wherein the intake will be beneficial through stored energy. Ready for questions.
15. (Q) How is the prostate gland?
    (A) This shows great improvement from those conditions that have existed in the body, and with this equalized nerve distribution will still show much improvement.
16. (Q) Why is there pus in the urine?
    (A) The mesenteric system and the kidneys equalizing themselves through the eliminations as are being set in the system. This, under the present condition of other portions of the body, is rather the improvement than that as was seen when there was that being carried through the SYSTEM, rather than being eliminated by the strengthening of the hepatic circulation so that poisons are being eliminated.
17. (Q) Would electric light baths be beneficial or detrimental?
    (A) Too strong electric light baths are detrimental, but that that keeps the capillary circulation eliminating normally good. That it would so increase that circulation as to produce the turning of same through those channels, detrimental, see?
18. (Q) The exercises are all that are needed to be added for the improvement of this body?
    (A) The exercises, that especially of the circulatory movement of the body below the diaphragm in the evenings, see? that the eliminations may be kept in and through their proper channels. Hence that stimulation through the exercise as is given, and not an excess of that that would increase capillary elimination.
19. We are through for the present.
