If there should be a frontal headache associated with the cough--a very frequent symptom if the cough has persisted for any length of time--the finger and thumb should be moved up to the very root of the nose. This shall be pinched gently for several minutes, right at the place where the nose ends and the eyes begin. One of the most remarkable things zone therapy has yet done (although I am not surprised at anything it may do) was to cure a forty-year-old cough, originating in a tracheal (or wind pipe) irritation. The patient received one treatment with a probe (Fig. 9) on the back wall of the pharynx. She experienced relief after the second treatment, and continued to improve until, at the expiration of three weeks, she was discharged as cured. Now, after 15 months, there has been no return of the cough. Another patient with bronchial cough associated with lagrippe, under my instruction, relieved herself by pressures made with the finger and thumb over the bridge of the nose, and by the wearing of rubber bands around the thumbs and first fingers of both hands. This lady reported the following morning that she had enjoyed the first night’s sleep she had had in more than five nights, and that a persistent and most annoying headache had also cleared up. These results are quite uniform, and can be duplicated by any one who will try patiently and painstakingly to duplicate them. Indeed, so simple is the procedure that I have repeatedly seen bronchial and other coughs, resulting from irritation or congestion at some point in the air passages, completely cured, merely by pressure on the tongue with the handle of a tablespoon or a toothbrush. And many of these had persisted for a long time. I believe the time is not far distant when every one will be his own cough doctor; when mothers, instead of doping their children with dangerous opiates or stomach-destroying nostrums will, with a tongue depressor, or a probe, do successfully in a few hours what now (to perpetrate an Irish bull) is done inadequately or not at all in many days. Here is the knowledge. There are no patents or restrictions upon it. Every one is free to use it to the fullest and most helpful possible extent. CHAPTER 14. HOW A PHANTOM TUMOR WAS DISSIPATED. Last June the New Hampshire Dental Society held a convention at Weirs, on Lake Winnepesaukee. One of the residents of the summer colony was brought before the convention on the evening of June 23d. Her serious condition baffled the local physicians. It was hoped that among the two hundred scientific men, gathered there from all parts of the East, some might be found who could help her.
