Moreover, hospital or hand massage could be used only in combination with a truss that would keep the rupture from _coming out_. A protrusion every day or so, as happens with most trusses, would _undo_ all the beneficial effects of the massage. But the invention of the _Cluthe_ Truss-- the _only_ truss that can be _depended_ on to _prevent protrusion_-- makes hand or hospital massage unnecessary; it takes their place. It massages the weak ruptured parts as well as a skilled hand-massager could, as well as could be done at a hospital. And charges nothing for giving the massage-- there is no expense beyond the price of the truss. [Sidenote: This Strengthening Massage Given Automatically] It massages the weak ruptured parts entirely _automatically_ or _mechanically_. And does it in a wonderfully simple way; the massaging device-- so small it would go in a watch case-- is so simple that you'll wonder when you see it how it can produce such a strengthening effect. Keeps massaging the weak ruptured parts _all day long_-- all without a moment's attention from you, all without keeping you from your work, all without in any way interfering with your pleasure. And, at the same time, holds the rupture constantly and comfortably in place. Takes all _strain_ off the ruptured parts, _rests_ the weakened muscles while the _massage_ is _strengthening_ them; just as you must rest a strained _ankle_-- keep your _weight_ off it-- while it is healing. Keeps you from even _feeling_ a single one of the strains that are apt to do so much harm when _other_ trusses are worn. That is how this remarkable truss, while overcoming your weakness, rids _work_ of all its _dangers_. Takes away all risk of further weakening yourself or of making the rupture worse. [Sidenote: Rids Work of All Its Dangers] Instead, any work you do will actually help make your rupture _better_, actually have a _healing_ or _curative_ effect. Every movement you make-- in working, walking, exercising, even in breathing-- so acts on the Cluthe Truss as to help produce the strengthening massage. This massage is wonderfully _soothing_, like gently rubbing a bruised spot. And is so remarkably beneficial that in about one hundred and ninety-nine cases out of every two hundred, the rupture usually begins to get better almost the day a Cluthe Truss is put on. So remarkably beneficial that the Cluthe Truss has cured some of the worst cases of rupture on record-- cured many of them even after everything else, including operation, had done no good whatever. For this massage does for the weak ruptured parts exactly what _exercise_ does for the _arms_ or _legs_-- gradually gives _new_ strength-- in most cases soon makes the ruptured parts as strong and sound as a dollar. * * * * * This massage, in some ways, is like _Osteopathic_ treatment. Which, as a cure for certain ailments, is fast taking the place of _drugs_ and surgical _operations_.
