Diet therapy; Health
As to massage, this requires knowledge of anatomy in general, and of the
anatomy of the individual to be treated, in particular. Only in this way
can the desired effect be produced on certain muscles and nerves, with
the further consequence that their movements promote the correct and
health-giving circulation of the blood. Here again the governing factor
must be the prescription of the hygienic-dietetic physician who has
studied the individual case and knows the effect he wishes to produce by
means of massage, and how to procure the same.
Books on massage and its general practice without knowledge of the
particular case, will really accomplish nothing.
ELECTRIC VIBRATORS
In certain cases, and where it is not a question of general massage, the
patient will be able to apply massage for himself according to the
physician's prescription.
In this connection he will find an electric vibrator of valuable
assistance. It will allow him to extend the area of the self-applied
massage, but again, it will be useful only to the extent that it is
carried out in strict accordance with instructions.
OXYGENATOR, RADIUM AND SALT BATHS (31, 32)
Since the discovery of radio-activity and the many effects which the
presence of radium in certain waters and minerals produces on the human
body, it has been the special task of research to find means of giving
humanity in general the benefit of this important discovery.
The radium preparation, called "Oxygenator," possesses the quality of
oxidizing about five times as quickly as any other known substance, and
thus removing the degenerated and diseased cells of the human body
accordingly.
This material itself, as well as other combinations of radio products
and salts I use and prescribe for half or whole baths, as the case may
require.
They are of the greatest assistance in carrying out the course of
treatment in each individual case. What in former times could be
effected only through expensive trips to the few famous healing springs
of the world, can now be accomplished in the comfort of the home or the
sanatorium. But these measures, too, should be followed only in strict
accordance with the physician's orders, bearing in mind that there is
such a thing as "too much" even of so valuable an energizer as this.
THE DISEASES TO BE TREATED AND THE APPLICATION OF THE METHOD.
Having given, in the foregoing paragraphs, a brief description of the
course of healing which I advocate, I am now about to give a short
explanation of the different methods to be applied in treating various
forms of disease, all of which have been already explained as
degenerations of the twelve tissues of the body. This will enable
patients to apply the prescriptions given to their individual cases.
..._Once more, however, I warn every one not to commit the mistake of
believing that a layman can cure his own disease by even the most
careful study of a book such as this is._
