HOW'S This?

Editorial from Fountain Head News, Davenport, ~
The Medical World, 1920 Chestnut St., Phila-
delphia, Pa, is so ethical they refuse to accept Chiro-
practic money on subscriptions for their journal. It
is the most ethical of the most ethical.
For, some unaccountable reason, something
good slips into it's pages occasionally. Note this ar
tice which appeared in January, 1917, number.
AS you read this, recall the physicians who are
appearing before Legislative Committees and are tel
ling that Chiropractic is a fake; nothing to it; the
theory is all buncombe; solicitations don't exist; the
chiropractor is a fakir of the first water, etc., etc.
Read those same Committees the same article

Treatment of Hemorrhoids by Pressure.
Dear DR.. Taylor:-In reference to query of DIR.
Huestis, December World, page AGA, for an office
treatment for hemorrhoids that will cure, l would
like to suggest the following, which I have used sue
c~essfully on my patients, and also have had demon
If the doctor will carefully palpate the lumbar
spine, he will find the fourth lumbar, possibly the
fifth, pushed backward, and more readily palpated
than the others. This exerts a pressure upon the
nerves supplying the parts around the rectum, thus
interfering with the inervation and producing the
hemorrhoid condition.
The successful treatment consists of replacing
the vertrebra in it's proper position, thus freeing the
nerve from pressure, and allowing the full amount
of nerve force to flow to the part, and the cure of
the condition will follow. This is an elimination of
the cause of the condition and the patient not only
becomes we'll quicker than by other methods, but re-
currence is less likely.
However, replacement Of the vertebra is not
easy until one has mastered the technic.
Technic
First, secure relaxation of patient by placing
him face downward, on two benches or chairs
(cushioned) which are separated, so the shoulders
and chest rest upon one. and the thighs upon the
other. Then with the edge of one hand firmly but
lightly upon the vertebra to be moved the other
hand ~grasping the wrist of the one upon the YER
zebra, make a sudden forcible movement, and as
quickly release; this will snap the bone into place,
This should be repeated every two or three days,
and if the bone moves each time you will be aston
ished at the result. ~>sA w1v Aven
The sooner we medical men recognize the i'm
p~ortance Of the spine, and spinal nerves, and the eff
feet of pressure upon these nerves, the sooner will
our patients be relieved of conditions which now
resist our treatment. Lawrence Simcox, M. D.
