Guest guest Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 My mother had tinnitus for over 20 years. She started taking gingko biloba capsules every day and within a week the ringing went away. When she was put on blood thinners they told her to stop the gingko and the ringing came back. Usually, when gingko works, it means there's some sort of blood flow congestion to the ear area that gingko opens up. But there are many reasons for tinnitus, which can be TMJ, nerve damage, neck problems, etc. But if it s a blood issue, then gingko will stop it.

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 This sounds like a great idea. However, I am hesitant to take gingko because of heart valve problems and current medications I'm taking for this. From what I have read in the past gingko could be a dangerous combination. Jean N.

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 For nerve damage--there's not much you can do. I think someone here said they had some good luck with tinnitus using bio-feedback. Whether that would work on the nerve damage or not, I don't know.

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Yes, you have to be careful. It's not so much that gingko interacts with medicines as much as it is, by itself, a blood thinner. So when you take medical blood thinners AND gingko, it can increase bleeding.

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Yes Biofeedback can work on nerve damage as a stress reduction tool. When the body is destressed it starts to repair itself. This is being seen in clients who have had spinal nerve damage and regain use of paralyzed limbs, due to nerve damage.

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 For nerve damage in my arm/finger, I've had excellent results with the new stem cell regeneration product - it activates your own stem cells, which your body knows to use wherever they are needed. The stem cells you already have in your body can turn into whatever kind of cell is needed, whether it is a heart cell, liver cell, brain cell, nerve cell, etc. Anyway, I got poked with a sharp metal thing into my elbow and lost feeling all the way down to my little finger. Both my doctor and my chiropractor told me it was nerve damage and it probably wouldn't improve. After I started taking the stem cell product, within two weeks I could feel my finger again. So it might be worth a try for any type of nerve damage. This is the one I use - http://www.regeneratestemcells.com , " Renee " <gaiacita wrote: > > For nerve damage--there's not much you can do.

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 --- one file on it Tinnitus Of course and as ever we whole heartedly recommend spiritual healing being applied to almost every condition Be sure that you have read carefully the Cayce philosophy page as missing any one of the principles there could cost you in some form – we know we have done it. these include diet, attitudes, water intake, exercise etc One of the most important principles outlined by cayce and others where people are suffering from any condition is to do everything they can to help others in whatever capacity they can. Cayce frequently mentioned that this would bring faster results. This is a great ingredient in helping all people to transmute their own karma. See other pages on this particularly important treatment. Cayce research found there are common causes for disease these are Poor assimilation's-the ability of your body to use the food you give it Poor elimination's- the most cited cause of problems which cayce identified-the ability of your body to rid itself of toxins , through the skin ,through the intestines, through the breath ,through the kidneys and bladder. If any of these pathways are not working properly you will have a build up of toxic poisonous wastes .You can imagine what that means.This means that detoxing usually with a 3 day apple diet ,massage, enemas , colonics etc Diet – in almost every case Cayce research advised altering and changing what people eat. Such is the importance of what we eat and the effect that has on us. The body must have the correct acid/alkaline balance to fend off disease etc. Spinal lesions and other problems –nothing to do with you feeling pain in your spine ,- maintaining proper nerve pathways to the organs ,glands which can have major effects on us like diabetes , blindness, in fact a whole host of other problems not even considered to day by the general practice. Imbalance of the circulation systems –circulation is vital Glandular malfunction- these do some pretty fantastic things to us ,problems with these are serious usually Karma –meeting the results of your own actions which you did in the past Attitudes-the reaction on your body to the attitudes which you have Infections These are called the principles of health which you will find covered on my web site http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/seventhmoon/orion/ all are important So you can see this therapy will involve change very very often ,building new dietary habits, attitudes ,often voluntary work etc and one must be willing to change. Also to attune yourself to the cayce healing principles we recommend Reba Ann karps book encyclopedia of healing ISBN 0446 30981-8 which gives lots of treatments on all manor of diseases. And the Edgar cayce handbook for health by Harold reilly and Ruth hagy brod Harold had 43 yrs working with the readings Isdn0-02601960-4 Obtained from the cayce center ARE or the heritage store, Virginia beach According to reba an karps book cayce gave 11 readings to seven people . Cayce frequently attributed tinnitus to circulatory problems. Lesions particularly to the external ear canal can form as a result of poor circulation to the head and face. Toxaemia, congestion and psychological factors anxiety etc played their part. But tin the main it was circulatory problems at times with spinal sublaxations. accompanying symptoms included pressure in the ears, head noises ,deafness, impaction of the Eustachian tube , earwax build up, earaches, itching inside the ears and fatigue from a lack of sleep.. Readings in 5 cases recommended osteopathic adjustments particularly to the cervical and dorsal areas. General massage to improve circulation as well as the co-ordination between the sympathetic and cerebrospinal nervous system. Also recommended was hydrotherapy in the form of sweats. Head and neck exercises were also included to improve circulation in those areas. Surgery was also recommended where the Eustachian tube was affected. Two of the readings made mention of the people having psychic experiences and were told to learn mediation.. General cayce diet which is mainly fruit and veg –raw little or no meat with the exception of fish and fowl. in one case of toxenia related tinnitus a rigid diet was recommended . Of the seven one did not follow the reading 4 did not send in reports.two reported they were cured through the advice .one person also said the treatment cured him of blindness. Also finger surgery Reactions noted: Most of these patients show definite improvement so to warrant this treatment in all cases ofdeafness I feel. E. W. P R15. DEAFNESS: Association for Research and Enlightenment, Incorporated Virginia Beach, Virginia Progress Card Type of condition treated by Dr. Schlichting (N.D.) Deafness Date 3/29/46 (Disease) Number of cases 3 Example Reactions noted: Favorable progress made We feel that manipulative finger surgery can do more to correct these cases than any other single modality. We here wish to specialize in this sort of work and as we have had some considerable training both here and abroad we feel that we can succeed. Hundreds of cases have some form of ear trouble which we feel competent to attend. " I am familiar with Edgar Cayce's readings and the fact that he suggested Finger Surgery in many cases of deafness. Iremember, in 1945, my father [Curtis H. Muncie, D.O.] telling me he had several patients whose hearing he restored as the result of these readings. " I also have had numerous patients who told me about Finger Surgery being mentioned in Cayce's readings and showed me a reprint of an article on Deafness published by A.R.E. which mentions Finger Surgery. [see March, 1974, A.R.E. News.] " As far as I know, there is no one who uses this method of treatment now. It is not taught in the colleges and it is not an accepted method of treatment by the A.M.A. Yet we continue restoring hearing and to many who failed to respond to the regular methods. " I am sending you PREVENTION AND CURE OF DEAFNESS [Curtis H. Muncie, D.O., author. See it under reports to 3511-1 after above reports] and some articles which will interest you. PREVENTION AND CURE OF DEANESS written by Dr. Curtis H. Muncie in re 3511-1 An estimated 15,000,000, Americans suffer partial or complete loss of hearing. Five million of them are victims of progressive deafness, which means that in time they will be cut off from all sound. A man has pioneered a unique method of treating deafness. He was so successful that word-of-mouth praise brought him the largest ear practice in the world. His offices occupied the entire 29th floor of the Hotel Delmonico on Park Avenue in New York City. For 50 years, until his death in 1963, he treated an average of 75 patients a day, His name - Dr. Curtis Hamilton Muncie. Dr. Muncie discovered a means of curing most types of deafness which has been considered absolutely incurable.He toured the United States and several European countries, holding free clinics and giving demonstrations of his new found technic for increasing the ability to hear in deaf people whose auditory nerves had not degenerated completely. His son, Douglas J. Muncie, D.O., who has been in practice in Miami, Florida, since 1946 and will soon open another office in Las Vegas, Nevada, was taught the technic by his father and is the only doctor, I know of perhaps the only one in the world - who practices this treatment. NOTE: Since the publication of my book GET WELL NATURALLY in 1965 I have received many letters requesting more information on the treatment for deafness rendered by Dr. Douglas J. Muncie of Miami, Florida. Also, as a result of my book, a number of hard-of-hearing citizens sought Dr. Muncie's aid and have written me that their hearing was restored - and how grateful they are! Hence - this article on the Muncie Method. DISCOVERED BY ACCIDENT An accident discovery (1910) - that the Eustachian tube in most deafness is deranged or deformed and that it is large enough to be successfully treated with the finger - marked the origin of this method. Let me quote from the book of Dr. Muncie, Senior, Prevention and Cure of Deafness: " A boy of 11 was referred to me for an adenoid operation. He had been deaf since an attack of scarlet fever, and the best efforts of otologists had failed to improve his hearing. After removing his adenoids by the usual method, I examined the nasopharynx with my finger and found lateral adenoids remaining which had grown about the orifice of the Eustachian tubes. I broke them down digitally, and while doing so my finger slipped into a depression and with slight pressure entered to the extent of about 3/8th of an inch. This I later realized was the Eustachian tube, but at the time I did not recognize it because anatomical texts had described the Eustachian tube as being the size of a goose's quill and thus too small for entrance of the finger. " The boy's hearing was 'miraculously' restored, but in two weeks some of the improvement was lost. In my effort to determine how the hearing had been benefited I examined over 500 Eustachian tubes with my finger while patients were under an anesthetic at our sanatorium. I found the Eustachian tube is large enough to be treated digitally. I again operated on my little patient, reconstructing his tubes, and then gave him after-treatment to maintain the tubes in their correctedcondition until they became normal. His hearing was restored and remained so for years afterwards. " RESEARCH After several years of research in hundreds of cases, Dr. Muncie consolidated his findings (1920) in concrete and definite conclusions. He had isolated eight different types of tubal deformity, of all which cause deafness, and developed and perfected a specific technic for correction of each deformity, which he called " Reconstruction of the Eustachian Tubes, " and treatment for normalization of each type. Dr. Muncie's conclusions checked consistently with physiology, anatomy, pathology and physics, but obviously disagreed with many time-honored medical theories. His discoveries combine to make the Muncie Reconstruction Method revolutionary, both in concept and results. In the wake of this method were born prejudice, petty professional jealousy, and bitter opposition by many doctors. Such is the lot of all great scientific discoveries in their " pioneer " stage. RECONSTRUCTION OF THE EUSTACHIAN TUBES Reconstruction of the Eustachian tubes is accomplished by a single operation without the use of cutting instruments. An anesthetic of nitrous oxide and oxygen is administered. Then the sensitive finger of the aurist determines the exact type and extent of the tubal deformity, as well as the condition of the surrounding tissues, and by means of molding process the deformity of the Eustachian tube is corrected. A small instrument which Dr. Muncie invented is then introduced via the patient's mouth, opening the osseous labyrinth, the half-inch section of the tube which cannot be dilated because it is surrounded by bone and in most cases is also closed. The average case requires less than eight minutes! The patient rests for one hour, the hearing is tested and compared with the original test, and he returns home. There is usually an immediate improvement of 10% or more. Further treatments are then given, without anesthetic, to gently mold the Eustachian tubes so they will not become deformed again; to further improve the hearing and make for permanent results. Many cases achieve 20% to 50% improvement in their hearing, most average 30% improvement. Thus, a person having 50% hearing and wearing a hearing aid may receive 20% to 30% improvement and will then be able to hear normally without an aid. Other cases with a severe hearing loss of 70% to 80% can usually be improved so they will have normal (70-100) hearing with the use of an aid. TYPES OF DEAFNESS WHICH RESPOND Dr. Muncie states, " Most deafness can be prevented and hearing partially or completely restored to a large percentage of cases through this corrective approach to deafness without cutting surgery. Patients who have 40% or more hearing are the most favorable. " The types of deafness successfully treated over the past 59 years are: catarrhal deafness, otosclerosis, nerve deafness, destroyed drums or suppurative deafness, Meniere's disease, some cases of children born deaf or severe deafness in infancy and aviation deafness. Tinnitus, or ringing in the ears, can be cleared up in eight out of 10 cases. " TECHNICAL ARTICLES Over the years, approximately 60 technical articles written by Dr. Curtis Muncie and Dr. Douglas Muncie have appeared in various medical journals, describing the results obtained through this method of treating deafness. More than 50 Muncie Clinics were held in the principal cities of America and Europe before scientists and physicians of all schools and were sponsored by over 30 different scientific societies of this profession. THE A.M.A. AT WORK At the Paris Clinic of Dr. Muncie Senior, in August 1924, members of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Paris and visiting specialists of Europe received his work so well that it was enshrined in the International Archives of the University of Paris, and the French Government wanted to present the doctor with the Legion of honor. But the American Medical Association wrote to the University and warned that if this honor were given Dr. Muncie the A.M.A. would send no more medical students to Paris. This was because Dr. Muncie was an Osteopathic Physician. The great success of the Muncie Method can be guaged both by the wealth of clinical results (supported by scientific background) and by criticism born of the misconception that " it can't be done because it has never been done before. " Dr. Douglas Muncie writes, " Medical politics and controversies should not exist when they obstruct issues of value to life, health and hearing - the rightful property of humanity. " NUTRITION IN DEAFNESS Dr. Douglas Muncie supplements his corrective digital treatment of the Eustachian tubes with the use of natural concentrates to supply specific nutrition to the inner ear and auditory nerve. He is a follower of natural health methods, and claims specific natural concentrates aid in his working with the deaf. Straining to hear keeps the person with defective hearing in a constant state of tension, leading to further nervous exhaustion and irritability. This also holds true for those who converse with the hard-of-hearing. This can cause breached relationships - both personal and business. Of the 15,000,000 deaf people in the United States, 3,000,000 are children whose entire lives could be ruined because of parental indifference or lack of knowledge. With today's advancement in medicine and surgery, there is little reason to ignore the loss of hearing - hoping the trend will reverse itself. Face the facts and have your hearing checked regularly. You have nothing to lose - everything to gain, particularly since there is now hope for hearing improvement. GENERAL INFORMATION This method is unique in that it corrects and REMOVES the underlying cause of deafness without cutting surgery and without hospitalization. This is a molding process done entirely with the surgeon's fingers for the purpose of correcting deformities of the Eustachian tubes, while under a short and light anesthesia. Post-operative treatments are required to establish maximum and permanent restoration. In most cases immediate improvement of hearing is established and head noises and vertigo are eventually eliminated. The amount of Post operative treatment varies with each individual but the average case requires a minimum of 3 weeks. Advanced cases require 2 or 3 more months of Post-operative treatments. People residing within reasonable commuting distance of this office may receive two to five treatment a week, and in some cases two consecutive treatments a week. Patients from distant locations remain here for two to three weeks and receive five to six treatments a week. They may then return home for a period of rest from treatment of three to six months, resume further treatment periodically for a week to two weeks at a time until the case has been completed. No hospitalization is required and patients are not inconvenienced or incapacitated by the operation or treatment. From the Edgar cayce files BACKGROUND OF READING 287-1 M 60 B1. 12/15/11 He had his first Physical Rdg. for an accident in July 1911 which predicted blindness unless tr. was followed. B5. 9/15/22 He requested 2646-2 for his wife, and a Ck. Physical for himself, saying he had a ringing in his ears and again a dimness of vision. [He had been cured of blindness through following advice in several ck. rdgs., but no copies are in the files. Problems with lesions that have been formed along the lower and upper cervicals, , we must produce proper distribution of nerve forces to the eyes and the ear here, you see. The effect becomes more noticable, we see, to the left ear and to the left side of the face, hence that eye is affected, you see. Hence we find the lesion in the third cervical or to the right side of the vertebra itself. This released either by massage or by exercise to the body itself to the head and neck movements we will find will relieve and bring a better condition throughout that part of the body. 5. Then we would take, while this is being used, with the exercises or the massage either, into the system these properties which will assist the blood supplying forces to carry the proper incentive to these portions of the body and which will work and act directly on the nerve forces that are affected within the body. We would take into the system this: Gum Camphor.............20 grains, Sulphate of Morphia.....3 grains, Muriated Ammonia........30 grains. This will be mixed well together and made into 36 pellets, pills, see? The dose would be one each evening and only one, you see. By the time these are taken, if the massage or the exercises are kept, we will find we will relieve the condition thru the sensory nervous system. .. (Q) Will that stop the ringing in the left ear? (A) Yes, this will remove the condition which produced that, hence the condition will be removed. (Q) That will also strengthen the left eye so I will have better vision? (A) It will strengthen the whole sensory organism, give more strength and vitality to the body throughout. The action of these medicinal properties are this: The gum camphor is a stimulant to the sensory organism, especially to the mucus coats of all the nasal and eye and ear and throat cavities. It tends to rise, as it were, to this portion of the body. The morphia we find in the small doses becomes a nerve astringent, stimulated. The muriate of ammonia is also a stimulant to the action of the blood with the sensory forces to attract to the portion of the body that which will remove and give more strength to these portions needed. More vitality to the body throughout, acting directly through the action of the solar plexus forces, secondary cardiac, and the forces to the head, eyes, nose and throat. The exercises, if taken, these would be this: Head forward three times, backward three times. To the left three, to the right three, then the circular motion of the head around the body five times, then reverse five times. Then arms or neck movement, or the massage, either or both, would assist the body; and give while the medicinal properties are being given (that is, night and morning exercises) medicinal properties once each evening. REPORTS OF READING 287-1 M 60 R5. 5/1/24 He reported: " I do not even wear glasses now. R6. 12/28/25 Mrs. [4207] wrote: " Your name was given me by a friend, Mr. [287], who said you had cured him of blindness by giving him a rdg. " " In 1915 I went stone blind. Edgar Cayce had said in my first reading for my health on December 15, 1911 that, from an accident I had in the Norton coal mines, Nortonville, Ky., on July 7, 1911, if I did not have the correction made in my spine as he suggested, it would eventually cause my system to become loaded with uric poisoning and I would lose my sight Edgar Cayce also said in the reading at the time that the only remedy to gain my sight would be sweats or Turkish baths. " This will advise you that I took seven hundred Turkish baths and sweats in two years, gradually regaining my eyesight until I could again see perfectly and was in wonderful health in every way, and not a cent's worth of medicine another reading In some respects we find the general conditions very good; in others we find the distresses upon the mental and sympathetic nervous force working a hardship upon the sensory forces of the body. As we would find in the present, each day there should be a general stimulation with the violet ray along the upper dorsal and upper cervical, or throughout the cervical area; around the neck and the head, around the ear; and then a general massage - not a treatment but a massage, as with the electrically driven vibrator. These would continue to make for greater improvements in the general physical forces of the body. The violet ray would be applied for two and a half to five minutes. The massage given by the vibrator would be from five to fifteen minutes. Use the sponge applicator for the head and neck, and the cup applicator along the spine - from the 9th dorsal upward. And don't just hurry through with it! The one making the application should see that it is REACHING those portions that are under distress! .. (Q) Please describe condition in ear. (A) An irritation by the inflow of congested forces without the proper quantity of stimulation to relieve same of the distresses, produced by those tendencies from the upper dorsal and through the cervical for the lack of impulse to those portions of the body itself. .. (Q) What causes the cough, and what may be done to relieve it? (A) The same that produces the disturbances to the soft tissue and mucous membranes of the head and of the auditory forces, also produces the irritation or tickling sensation that produces a cough - and a tendency to clear the throat. .. (Q) What should be done to cure roaring in ear? (A) This is included in those things as indicated; in the use of the violet ray and the applicator about same. Use the vibrator SPONGE applicator about the neck and head; that is, around the FACE and head, and the cup applicator on the spinal column itself. These should soon prove helpful; though they may be irritating at times, even more so than at present, but gradually the condition should recede - and the corrections being made in the system will relieve the distress. Cleanse the ear at times, to be sure, with any warm solution; preferably a combination of salt and soda in equal parts with distilled water; or with a little sweet oil and then cleanse with a little tuft of cotton or the like. For these are the natural discharges that come from the lack of the distribution of refuse forces or used energies within the system itself. BACKGROUND OF READING 5610-1 F ADULT .. GD's note: Mr. [417] who was present for Mrs. [5610]'s reading stated that Mrs. [5610] was becoming increasingly deaf and was also bothered with tinnitus. Problems Such as those that affect the lymph circulation in the soft tissue of the body; such as produce those disorders through the intestinal and organs of the pelvi system. The basis, then, or those conditions as PRODUCE distresses, as we find, have most to do with that condition in the system where drainages of the body are misdirected, and the incoordination of eliminations produces same; so that, in the resultant condition from same, we have functional disorders as make for the other distresses, as are sometimes called the CAUSE - but are merely contributions to the distress, or an effect in the system. The disorders from the eliminations in system produce those forces as cause the distress between the eliminations of the alimentary canal, the nominal functioning of the liver, the kidneys, or all of the hepatic circulation, making for the tendency of those creative energies as make for the burning up of the energies of the body; the diffusion in the assimilated forces of the body, that make for recuperation, and the continued nausea as comes from those gastric forces as are seen in the system are of the system attempting to ADJUST itself most to those disorders; this making for the overacidity, making for those pressures in the diaphragm area, as well as on the locomotary centers of the body. THESE, as we find, are the causes. In meeting, then, the needs - we will find that, with the eliminations so set up in the alimentary canal as to prevent the intoxication of the system by the diffusion of poisons being carried through portions of the body; those of the nerve centers themselves as perfectly relaxed as may be done, through the general massage, and with the application of those vibratory forces in the ultra violet as to destroy plasm and enliven OTHER plasm in the system - THESE, as we find, will bring and make for the bettered conditions in the system. In the application of eliminations, colonic cleanses, and an antiseptic through the whole system of the alimentary canal, and stimulation of the ORGANS of the system so that the lymph as disturbs in soft tissues of face, in the lymph circulation, are increased - but the increase will be for the drainages, or those of a better coordinating in the used forces of the body. These, aided WITH that stimuli in the vibratory forces of the light, will bring the betterment, (Q) How often should the massage and violet ray be given? (A) In the beginning, we would give first the cleansing of the colon and of the organs of the intestinal tract - by the high enema, or irrigation. This should be done at least twice each week - Tuesdays and Thursdays. Then, on Mondays, Wednesdays, Saturdays, give the massage or manipulation, FOLLOWING same with the ultra violet ray, especially to the solar plexus centers. This should be given at least thirty-eight to forty inches from body, and in the beginning a period of two to three and a half minutes. .. (Q) Why is sense of hearing being lessened, and what can be done to correct same? (A) This rather from the general debilitation of the system, and of the drying up of the lymph circulation in drainage from sensory system and from the organs of the auditory forces. These, as are as of temperature - and of the disturbance in soft tissue in this portion of body - these will need later some LOCAL application, in throat and head. FIRST begin the general building up of the physical system, and we will find these will be aided. Then, when NECESSARY, we may give that of the SPECIFIC nature for the sensory organism. 5610-2 Conditions in many respects are on the improve. Some are most satisfactory; others are apparently aggravated in some directions, but we would keep those administrations that have been given for these corrections, and - as the body sees self in its administrations, and in the seeking for aid - THAT will come; for much of the psychopathic nature, as has been suggested, entered in with these conditions. While the manipulations may be given at less frequent intervals - once a week, at least every third week it would be well to have them twice a week. These, as we find, with the general changes that come, will be helpful (Q) What causes the constant whistling noises in left ear? (A) That incoordination, and it would be well were - especially THIS side of the Eustachian tube - aroused to its nearer normal reflex in circulation. Now it's the circulation adhered to, or spoken of, rather than TOO much of the Eustachian tube ITSELF massaged. The nerves and muscles in their ends, the nerves along their course in THIS area. Deep under the throat, just above the thyroids. Deep under the jaw, just below those of the 2nd and 3rd branches of the 5th nerve. 5. (Q) When bending head and right leg backwards, wind like noises rush to right ear. What can be done to correct this? (A) This has just been given! .. (Q) What causes the dark spots I see before each eye occasionally, and what can be done to correct this? (A) The stronger manipulative forces when given in the region of the sensory centers as from ear and eye. The circular motion of the head will have MORE to do with this than even the manipulative forces, when CONSISTENTLY and PERSISTENTLY done. Don't do it just because - well, " Now this is what it said to do. " Do it because this is what it is creating in the system - see? (Q) Should lamp treatments be continued? If so, how often? (A) At least once each week. (Q) How often should irrigations? (A) When most needed; otherwise, at least once each month. 5610-3 .. Now, in some respects we find considerable change in the physical forces of the body. While those conditions that are disturbing in the sensory system, if any change, are apparent to be more noticeable, or more active than they have been - that is, there is the consciousness of their EXISTENCE more. This, while is very discouraging to the body, may be expected to exist until there is the establishing of that increased circulation and drainage necessary to the auditory system, especially, and that there is the proper coordination in the sympathetic and cerebro-spinal in the upper dorsal and through the cervical region. While the Eustachian tube, as we find, do not show clogging, there is that inflammation or that condition which at times assumes those proportions as to cause inflammation along the channel itself, and there is the tendency for the lack of proper nutriment to keep that balance in fluids in the inner ear. That produces the unbalanced condition and the noises that are experienced. .. WE would change those of the treatments in such a way and manner as to ENLIVEN those nerves to the inner ear, making those corrections proper, making those applications to the throat, in the tonsil area, in the Eustachian area. We would advise those treatments as may be applied by Richardson. (Q) After eleven weeks of treatments there is no improvement in ears. Why? (A) This as has been outlined, that this has not reached the causes for conditions in the upper dorsal, through the cervical, and those conditions as result from a local condition in throat and along Eustachian tube. As suggested, would these corrections be made, ten days or two weeks would see a vast difference. While this would not be WHOLLY well, this would be on the ROAD to where the general treatments might and would keep the drainages near normal. (Q) Why do noises in ears continue and at times are worse than prior to treatments? (A) Just as has been suggested, they stir UP - as it were - that same tendency to produce a dryness of the fluids in the inner ear. This has BEEN outlined. (Q) Is the condition in ears chronic or incurable? (A) We haven't given them such, have we? These may become chronic, to be sure - or what may be termed chronic, when the condition in dorsal AND cervical exists, as well as the local condition in throat. They are rather a RESULTANT condition! (Q) Will I ever have perfectly normal hearing and how long should this take? (A) That will depend entirely upon the applications made for the correction of the conditions, as to whether it will be normal and as to how long it will take! (Q) The cracky sound in left ear when body swallows saliva is still there and is there a change in treatment that can relieve this condition? (A) This has been given. All of these have been covered in that outline as given, see? R2. 5/21/31 Report by Dr. M. L. Richardson: Diagnosis: Otosclerosis - a type of ear disease characterized by head noises and progressive impairment of hearing. Etiology: The conditions of which you now complain are really secondary to a long standing nasopharyngitis (catarrh) which causes a thickening of the mucous membrane lining the postnasal spaces and around the Eustachian tubes and then extended to the tubes and middle ears. It has also produced adhesive bands from the ear tubes to the back wall of the nose binding the tube and hindering its normal actions. The ear tubes are thus unable to perform their normal functions of ventilation, drainage, and circulation to the ears, and the normal offices [orifices?] of the ears are gradually impaired. Prognosis: Taken at this stage the usual result of treatment is to stop progress and give definite and permanent relief and improvement. Discussions: No treatment to your ears or tubes can be of any permanent help so long as the condition described in the postnasal spaces and around the ear tubes remains to feed trouble anew to the tubes and ears. The plan of treatment proposes therefore: 1st - A corrective finger operation to remove and destroy the excess tissue and adhesions in the postnasal spaces, and two after treatments in next 10 days, and 2nd - A month or six weeks later a second finger operation to reconstruct the ear tubes, restoring them to size opening and position, re-establishing ventilation, drainage and circulation to the ears, and 3rd - Six weeks after treatment must immediately follow the above - two or three treatments per week - to maintain the corrected tube conditions, and to prevent the formation of adhesions until the restored conditions will remain without further help. 5610-4 Now, as we find, there is a great improvement in the physical forces of the body. As we find in the auditory forces, the conditions show that form of treatment and the breaking up of the lesions in the manner as had been outlined for the CORRECTION of same, and with the proper treatments to give the nerve and muscular forces their proper DIRECTION in the resuscitating forces in the direction should bring about a near perfect, normal condition in this direction. These, then, we would keep in that manner as has been outlined. ... (Q) Have the two finger operations been successful? (A) Been very successful, and only need that continued use of the manipulative forces as given, to prevent adhesions or lesions from forming again, so that there is LITTLE or no scar tissue, or that the Eustachian tubes, or the connecting forces or directions to same are kept in alignment - see? .. (Q) Is Dr. Richardson treating ears and giving osteopathic treatments correctly? (A) As has been OUTLINED, these are on the improve. If they had been wrong we would have told it! .. (Q) How often should they be given? (A) Two to three times each week. The treatments should be given to keep the alignments for the conditions as have been altered or changed, see? (Q) Why are noises in left ear worse than ever at times, also cracking in ears when swallowing? (A) This the retraction, or the reflection of the condition as are being broken up, and from the very NATURE OF the condition PRODUCE THAT reaction! .. (Q) Will the noises disappear, also my hearing be entirely restored? (A) As soon as the conditions - We must remember, there are nerve ENDS that MUST form in their proper relationship and connections to MAKE a perfect auditory reaction. When these have had the opportunity, and the incentive through those connections, and the creating of the better physical conditions in the body, we will have a normal reaction from same. (Q) What percentage of hearing will I have? (A) What percent does it desire! (Q) How long should the body take treatments from Dr. Richardson? (A) Until the condition clears itself and the body has the opportunity to ADJUST itself TO those conditions as HAVE been and ARE necessary for the proper relationships and connections. These can be told BEST BY the reaction of same in the body, see? In another reading for thid lady (Q) In previous reading, the Forces mentioned a near normal condition of the hearing and activities of the sensory system would ensue after the third month, or when there begins the first movements. (A) There IS a nearer normal activity, and will be materially aided will there be the manipulative forces for the whole general system, with the consideration given those centers in the upper dorsal and cervical, and head and neck area - as related to the sensory, and especially the auditory centers. Let the manipulator know and realize that STIMULI to the circulation from the 2nd and 3rd dorsal, as well as from the 3rd and 4th cervical, will work for the betterment of those conditions in the sensory system, and sensory disturbance - and, as given, when the circulation is stimulated - as is recognized - the manipulations in the dorsal and lumbar will aid in the activities of kidneys, with the general eliminations, with the general tired feeling, and relieve the nausea that comes at times to the body - by the manipulative forces; these will act in the same way and manner for the sensory system. Follow those rather closely. (Q) How often should the manipulations be given? (A) Once to three times a month. Some reports I've pretty much got my tinnitus under control. I must avoid caffeine, I just discored that even chocolate can turn up the noise. Alcohol is a no-no. Ginko biloba about 120 mg a day. This definitely helps. I'm dependent on this stuff for the rest of my life. If I drink coffee or wine then I get about a week to 10 days of extra noise. When I'm good I barely notice any sound, maybe a minute a day of bother. The other thing that has help tons is plenty of neurofeedback training to calm my central nervous system. This is vastly under-recognized. Even old fashioned biofeedback is proven effective for soothing the emotional reactivity of tinnitus. So proven, it is accepted by health insurance companies. Neurofeedback is just more modern.
