While osteopathy is\\na new name, it was largely practiced in ancient China and during\\nthe period from three to four thousand years before Christ it\\nconstituted the most valuable part of the whole system of the\\nhealing art. In the most ancient books of China it was under-\\nstood that labor could be controlled as to pains by pressing on\\nthe pubes, just on each side of the clitoris. This fact I have\\nknown and practiced for many years, and I find that by pressure\\non these parts you may concentrate and make good strong and\\nlong expulsion pains of the uterus, and at the same time the os\\nwill be more readily dilated. By pressure over the second sacral\\nforamen, just on the nerves as they emerge from their bony\\nopenings, you will cause the perineum and soft parts of the vagina\\nto dilate, thus not only rendering labor less painful, but at the\\nsame time you may terminate a labor which would usually last\\ntwenty-four hours, in from two to four hours. In this way I have\\nterminated labor which has lasted two and three days, and where\\nI had been called to apply forceps as a consultant to some physi-\\ncian, and by knowing these manipulations have surprised the\\nphysician and his patient by a rapid delivery, due to concentrat-\\ning the pains, and relaxing the parts by the above manipulations.\\nIn the same way, mind you, the afterbirth can be most readily\\nexpressed.\\nj\\\\lany cases of dysentery, or blood flux, as it is sometimes\\n5", "height": "3937", "width": "2392", "jp2-path": "osteopathictreat00keye_0013.jp2"}, "14": {"fulltext": "called, I have cured by knowing these ancient practices which\\nhave come from the land where the bubonic plague and dysen-\\nteries have been the bane of the nation, who understood the\\nbody better than sanitation and germs.

Through a double-flow\\ntube about two gallons of a solution of chinsol (5gro tablet to\\ntwo gp.llons of water), is passed in and out of the stomach,\\nthus irrigating and cleansing it thoroughly. After the chin-\\nsol solution, a gallon of sterile water should be run through\\nto remove it, as the tendency of antiseptic solutions of this\\nkind is to destroy the leucocytes of the blood, the very friends\\nwe should endeavor to cultivate. A gallon of sterile water,\\nwith the addition of one drachm of sodium chloride, is now\\nrun into the stomach and intestine and left there. The tem-\\nperature of these solutions should be 120^ F.\\nIn all cases, at the first few treatments it is surprising to\\nwitness the amount of catarrhal mucus which exists. These\\nirrigations should be kept up daily during the first week,\\nsometimes up to the third week, but do not repeat leaving\\nthe gallon of weak sodium chloride solution in the stomach\\nover three times in succession.

To those Vv-ho have stud-\\nied along these lines it will not be surprising that a tuber-\\ncular cavity may be made to heal, and nov/ comes the most im-\\nportant part of this plan of treatment. It is in the use of sug-\\ngestion massage. The patient being placed into the desired\\nsuggestive state, suggestions are made as to the correction of\\nall pathological conditions, such as inflammaticn, according to", "height": "3937", "width": "2368", "jp2-path": "osteopathictreat00keye_0063.jp2"}, "64": {"fulltext": "28 KKYES A CERTAIN CURE FOR CONSUMPTION.\\nphysiological principles. The patient is instructed to breathe\\ndeep, so that the circulation will increase. One of the prin-\\ncipal secrets of success in the treatment by sug-g-estion is to\\nstimulate ganglionic activity by such suggestions as these,\\nYou feel warm here (touching the part), you feel warm up\\nand down your spine and on the top of your head; you feel\\nthis nerve system generating life-force elcctricit}^ and this\\nlife nutrition is going to the affected part. Patients to\\nwhom these suggestions are made, if in the proper state, will\\nfeel the force generating within them. I feel like an elec-\\ntric battery, many say. This treatment is in reasonable ac-\\ncord with the cause of consumption here advocated.\\nNow, general massage and movements including all of\\nthe manipulations, as friction, beating, kneading, chopping,\\nsawing, vibration, etc., etc., are carried out, coupled with the\\nsuggestion of the effect desired, as to sleep, digestion, circu-\\nlation; habits of the body, as to the healing of the cavities,\\nnight sweats, diarrhoea or constipation, etc.\\nVibration of the chest is one of the most important of the\\nmassage manipulations. To do this it is better to use some\\nform of apparatus, run by an electric motor. For this pur-\\npose we recommend Professor Boschetti s small hand appara-\\ntus, which transmits a rapid and almost silent rotary move-\\nment to an articulated metal rod or flexible cord, producing\\nfrom 4,000 revolutions a minute upward. An eccentric\\n\u00e2\u0080\u00a2changes the motion from a rotary to a tremolo at will. In\\nplace of this we may use the hands alone which, while vibrat-\\ning, are placed on various parts of the patient, and so com-\\nmunicate their vibration; or also by light, rapid blows, with\\nthe fingers widely separated, so that when a quick blow is\\ngiven, the stroke of each finger falls distinctly separate. The\\nrate of the impact or percussion is thus quadrupled, and vi-\\nbratory waves are made to pervade any part subjected to the\\nprocess. Another form of vibration of the chest is to have\\nthe patient sit erect.

The vibrations\\nfrom each side are propagated along- the arm into the chest,\\nwhere they meet and are broken into very fine waves. As a\\nvibration, electricity may also be used.\\nWe may now put the patient through some form of men-\\ntal exercise.

These instructions are given in\\nsuch a manner so that by performing them they aid the treat-\\nment, not only by their own value but by the post-suggestive\\ninfluence.\\nSome of the post-suggestions, or suggestion a-echance,\\nmay be as follows: If the patient is strong enough we would\\nsay to him: Before each meal you should walk around the\\nblock four times, breathing long and deep. By doing so it\\nwill make you grow strong and fat; it will make your lungs\\nstrong; it will make them heal; the blood will circulate so\\nfinely all through your body and you will be so hungry\\n(touching the stomach), have a good appetite and sleep well\\nnights.

The continuously prog-ressive\\nincrease in the cancer mortality has now been g oing on for\\nmore than a century.\\nHaving- carefully reviewed the entire literature on the\\nsubject of cancer as listed in the catalogue of the Surg-eon\\nGeneral s office, and the Index Medicus in all some several\\nhundred articles we found that the census of opinion is, as\\nevery one knows, that cancer can not be cured either by\\nmedical treatment or surg-ical operation, and as to whether\\ncancer can best be treated by medical and local treatment, or\\nby surgical operation has received a larg-e share of the physi-\\ncian s attention, and here we have a division of opinion.\\nSome claim that life is prolong-ed to a greater extent, and\\nthat better results are obtained by medical treatments and\\nthe employment of caustics and escharotics, and that the\\noperative treatment shortens life. Others, the surg-eons,\\nclaim that operative treatment is a more certain palliative;\\nthat it relieves the patient to a g-reater extent, and for a\\nlong-er period of time, and that if an early operation is per-\\nformed a permanent cure will sometimes result. Early oper-\\nation should be the watch-word of every ph3 sician.\\nWhen cancer is left to itself, says Jackson, it requires\\nabout seventeen months to destroy life, if of the cervix of the\\nuterus, and if of the body thirty-one months.

Chemical or actual\\ncauterization. 2nd. Amputation or excision of the diseased\\nstructure. 3d. Extirpation of the entire uterus, and as much\\nof the surrounding- tissue and lymphatic g-lands as possible.\\nSurg-ical technique has now so far advanced that the latter\\nmethod is preferable and should be carried out in proper\\nselected cases. In order to do this an early diag-nosis must be\\nmade. This I am aware is not always possible as the early\\nlife of cancer is insidious, usuall}^ unobservable and symp-\\ntomless, and the disease has often become too far advanced\\nbefore the physician is consulted, for the successful treat-\\nment by early excision, and even in early operation without\\nthe aid of sug-gestion results are discourag-ing-. Fritsch, one\\nof our best operators, has g-iven us the final results of sixty cases\\nof total extirpation for cancer of the uterus, and he has been\\nhonest enoug-h to tell us that at the end of three years he had\\nonly two patients alive.

In\\nthe proper state ot hypnosis certain music exercises certain\\neffects upon the nervous organization, and this promotes the\\neffect of sug-g-estion.\\nAs to the cause of cancer, study has only shown that it is\\na change of tissue, and it is a trite saying- that carcinoma is\\n\u00e2\u0080\u00a2simply a return to the fetal state. It is thus probably due\\nmore to failure of the tropic nerves and nutritive conditions\\nthan to anything- else. From the fact that disease is incom-\\npatible with health, it naturally follows that where disease\\nhas taken possession of a structure there must previously\\n\u00e2\u0080\u00a2existed an enfeebled condition of the parts affected, i e.^ some\\nirritation, which exhausts the g-ang-lionic system from supply-\\ning- the proper amount of nerve force.
