All human ailments, with the exception of highly
infectious and contagious diseases, are traceable to one cause: Imperfect
circulation and impoverished blood.
During our youth, when we take plenty of exercise,
enjoy sound sleep, our blood is rich and we insured of a copious supply
to every part of our body.
Gradually, as we grow older, we pursue a more sedate
mode of living and our circulation slows down at the same time. The flow
of blood through our veins is slower and our whole body suffers.
When our body is in this condition, germs find fertile
field to lodge and multiply.
For this reason, weak and run-down persons become
easy prey to almost any disease to which they are exposed.
It is reasonable to assume that by increasing the
flow of blood through the body, the reverse of this process will be true
and the congestion and disorder can be relieved.
A systematic course in physical culture will, in
time, renovate the body completely. Few of us are able to devote necessary
time to such course. By means of Violet Ray treatment, every functional
activity of the body can be speeded up and the blood made to run through
the veins with renewed vigor.
An important part of this treatment is that it can be concentrated to any particular organ that requires special treatment. It brings a vigorous surge of rich, warm blood to any part, thereby washing away the silt of the disease, strengthening and nourishing the tissues, and giving vigor and vitality to any part treated.
The Violet Ray High Frequency Current, or as it is more commonly called, "The Violet Ray," is a new phase of electricity. It is applied to any part of the human body without pain, muscular contraction or disagreeable sensation of any kind. The electrical oscillations representing the High Frequency Current follow each other with such tremendous rapidity that they out-speed our nervous sensibility; we do not become conscious of their presence; in other words our nerves are insensitive to the electrical oscillations of the Violet Ray. The oscillations are so rapid that they exceed many thousand repetitions per second. The Violet Rays are pleasing, and though most stimulating and highly invigorating to the entire system, nerves and muscles, cannot record the presence of their great power.
Violet Rays or High Frequency Currents benefit all
living matter. Through the glass vacuum applicator light, heat, electric
energy and ozone are created. These forces are uniformly potent in relieving
and eliminating human ailments. Violet Rays present a remedy upon which
we can rely. They are positive and certain in action. They will reach where
medicine does not, and often cannot yet they cause no pain, no disagreeable
sensation or discomfort. They furnish a soothing relief. They destroy germs
and have a strong power over infection.
A Violet Ray treatment is the surest method of relieving
pain. Applied to that part of the body where the pain is the severest,
the rays and High Frequency electrical discharge penetrate every cell,
tissue and organ and tranquilize and sooth. They build up the forces of
nutrition and general health. Violet Rays will stimulate and strengthen
the vital organs, develop the body and steady the nerves, spraying thousands
of volts of High-Frequency electricity into any weak, sluggish or painful
organ or muscle, purifying and causing the flow of warm, rich blood to
surge through the treated part, as the same time being painless and pleasant.
Violet Rays have only to be tried to be appreciated.
Every vibration of the violet ray causes the cells
of the body to vibrate. This vibration gives the effect of message, and
as its frequency is so high that it is insensible to us, its effect is
rapid and powerful.
It imparts new life to each individual cell and
enables it to more readily absorb the nutriment from the blood stream,
thereby building new tissue. In short, it tends to revive and invigorate
every bodily tissue by rejuvenating each individual cell of which it is
composed.
When daily treatments are given with Violet Rays the following effects are observed:
Violet Rays should be used by everyone experiencing
sickness or ailment of any kind. The healing properties of Violet Rays
are manifold, and they accomplish what drugs and medicine never can. The
regular introduction of a vitalizing shower of diffused electricity into
your system is exactly what is needed to make it function properly and
efficiently. To be healthy, use Violet rays, to keep healthy, use violet
rays.
There are three distinctly different ways of applying
violet rays.
First. Soothing Effect. This soothing, or
sedative effect is administered by means of the glass applicator. To secure
this effect the applicator is applied directly to the bare skin. You can
calm painful sensation by sedative treatment; these treatments are of great
benefit to all nervous ailment. Nervous troubles are quickly and Most beneficially
influenced by the sedative currents. A general electrification treatment
refreshes the entire nervous system.
Second. Stimulating Tonic and Invigoration. Stimulation
and invigoration is produced whenever an electrode is somewhat lifted during
its application or used through cloth or clothing. This stimulation is
caused by the many small sparks called the High Frequency Spray. They bombard
the area which they cover, causing a tingling but pleasant sensation. They
have a beneficial heating effect, too. Besides they generate ozone. Particles
of this ozone are driven right into the tissues, causing ozonization of
the blood. Sparks are also germ-killing and have a great power over infection.
Stimulating treatments are best produced by application
through the clothing or through a towel which has been put over the part
to be treated. As the length of the stimulating spray depends on the thickness
of the interposed dry resistance, that is the clothing or towel, any desired
effect is obtainable. Anything from a handkerchief to a doubled Turkish
towel can be used for this purpose. The use of any kind of cloth insures
a uniformity in spark length which cannot be obtained in any other way.
Powdering the skin with talcum powder often suffices to create the desired
dry resistance. This will, at the same time, allow an easy sliding of the
applicator. A slight perspiration results from the treatment this is
natural. If the application of talcum powder is not desirable, use of lubricant
is recommended.
Stimulating treatments through clothing find a profound
use in rheumatism, lumbago, partial paralysis, etc. Slight stimulation
is also sometimes desired in skin troubles where the blood circulation
is impaired. A single layer of a handkerchief presents enough resistance
in such a case. Chronic rheumatic troubles, however, may require the use
of several layers or a Turkish towel.
Long sparks from the applicator will cause a counter
irritation. Counter irritation relieves wonderfully quickly pains of many
sorts.
It is often the very welcome means to kill the pain
of a toothache. You will appreciate this pain-relieving quality of the
Violet Ray also in sprains, strains, bruises, etc. Counter irritating applications
are better, swifter, and more effective than plasters and liniments. In
fact, they replace them entirely. Stimulating treatments are long lasting
in their effects. They are not like drugs or a glass of wine because they
are not followed by a reaction. They do not create any habits.
Third: Internal Antiseptic.
The effect of inhaling ozone is much the same as
that of inhaling copious quantities of pure air. It purifies and enriches
the blood, invigorates the body, and causes pure oxygen to be taken up
in large quantities in the blood stream.
Ozone inhalation is of particular benefit in the
treatment of respiratory disorders. Taken into the lungs, it immediately
attacks the disease cells and causes them to be oxidized and thrown off
with the exhaled air. This treatment has been found to be of great benefit
in cases of bronchitis, colds on the lungs, tuberculosis and similar troubles.
Rheumatism
The blood deposits poisons when the circulation
becomes sluggish, usually at the joints and we feet a slight pain. Continued
deposits cause the joints to swell and inflammation to set in. This is
called articular rheumatism. The same condition causes pain in the muscles
and we have muscular rheumatism. Violet Rays restore circulation and drive
oxygen into the blood, thereby bringing back to a normal condition the
afflicted part.
The Condensor Electrode is found most beneficial
and should be taken twice daily with a medium strength current. The very
first treatment brings a warm, glowing tinge to the skin and relief is
apparent.
Neuritis
This may be treated in a similar manner as rheumatism,
only with a milder current. Lumbago
This is treated like rheumatism, preferably through
the clothing, and with a strong current and with the condenser electrode,
twice a day.
Headaches-Insomnia-Brain Fag
When the blood collects in pools throughout the
body, it becomes stagnant. One of the most troublesome of these is the
cavity in the skull where it directly affects the brain. This causes headaches,
brain fag and insomnia. Everyone knows that prolonged mental effort will
bring about a congestion in the brain that dulls our power of thought.
When this is demanded over a long period of time, circulation is impaired,
the nerves irritated and the familiar, dull headache, results. The general
treatment is to use the surface electrode and apply it to the different
parts of the head, thereby relieving the congestion.
Hair-Scalp-Skin
The hair roots are fed, just as every other part
of the body is, through the blood. For treatment of the scalp we have a
special comb applicator which pulls easily through the hair and conforms
to the shape of the head. Millions of tiny electric sparks carry pure ozone
to the small capillaries through which the blood flows in the scalp. These
tiny capillaries are gently massaged, and nourishment is brought to the
roots of the hair. The very first treatment brings a long, glowing, healthy
feeling to the scalp, and with few successive treatments, itching will
stop, hair will cease falling, and dandruff disappear. In many cases, gray
hair will even be restored to its natural color. By stimulating the scalp
apparently dead hair will quickly take on a natural glossy and healthy
appearance.
The Violet Ray applied to the face, brings fresh,
rich oxygen-laden blood, which cleanses the pores, dissolves poisons and
other waste matter and assists nature to produce a natural, glowing, healthy
condition or complexion. One short treatment every evening and every morning
will work wonders on the complexion.
Run-Down Condition
General weakness, tiredness, loss of weight, lack
of appetite, usually indicate anemia or impoverished blood and poor circulation.
Violet Ray stands alone as the most potent treatment known to science in
giving quick relief to such disorders.
This treatment is taken with the general body applicator
over the entire body for five minute, twice daily, using a medium current.
The metal applicator is also very beneficial and should be held firmly
in the hands for ten minutes, twice daily, with a strong current which
massages the body with a stimulating cellular massage. Ozone inhalations
give very beneficial results.
Dyspepsia, Constipation and Digestive Disorders
This treatment consists in getting the blood into
circulation so that it will find its way to the lungs to be properly Then
the digestive organs must be stimulated to function properly, so they will
rid themselves of the accumulation of bodily waste. Its great advantage
over medical treatment is that it can be applied directly to the seat of
trouble.
For the relief of indigestion and constipation,
the current should be first applied to the abdomen. The applicator should
be held in loose contact with the skin, so that a mildly stimulating effect
is obtained. This, in turn, will speed up circulation, stimulate -the muscles
of the abdominal wall and relieve the congested organs. Treatment of the
spinal nerve centers should follow the above treatment.
The various weaknesses that afflict these organs in both men and women spring from the same general causes as most other bodily weaknesses, and must be treated accordingly.
Correcting Female Complaints
It is true that the sexual system, particularly
in women, is very delicately adjusted, and, consequently, any disorder
affecting other parts of the body may have an influence on this system.
Women suffering from anaemia, obesity, digestive disturbances and nervous
disorders will, in nine cases out of ten, suffer from female troubles also.
Because of this, they usually resort to treatment with some nostrum that
acts directly on the organs instead of getting at the fundamental cause
of the trouble.
In women, disorders of this kind may be classified
into three groups: The first group includes those caused by weakness of
the parts or of the supporting ligaments and tissues. The second group
includes nervous complaints and the third those resulting from internal
infections. Into the first class may be placed all displacements and similar
troubles that are so common and distressing. The second, or nervous disorders,
may be regarded as functional disorders that contribute to the development
of the first group. The third includes inflammations of all kinds in the
pelvic region and manifest themselves through the several organs. Usually
the symptoms indicate a complication of disorders failing into at least
two of these classes.
Violet Ray treatment gives the most gratifying results
in correcting disorders of this kind, for the reason that by proper application
and treatment, the effects are both constitutional and local, which insures
rapid improvement.
The third class of troubles mentioned-those caused
by internal infections-are usually, characterized by inflammation, pain
and frequently by unnatural discharges. The treatment described in the
preceding paragraph should be used, and in addition internal treatment
with one of the vaginal electrodes, preferably the insulating electrode.
This internal application acts not only as a local antiseptic, but relieves
inflammations as well. Applicators for administering internal treatment
will be found in the back of this booklet. The duration of this should
not exceed five or six minutes.
With men, disorders of the reproductive organs seldom
cause the physical distress as with women, but their influence on the mental
condition of the man is frequently even more severe. Men become afflicted
with these troubles largely through the same causes as women-lack of exercise,
faulty nutrition, nervous conditions, etc. These are all too frequently
aggravated by excessive use of tobacco, alcohol and sexual indiscretions.
The same general tonic treatment prescribed for
women should be taken by men also. In addition to this, great benefit will
be derived from daily treatment of the external organs lasting for from
five to seven minutes. This should be given with a medium current, keeping
the applicator in loose contact with the skin so that a stimulating tonic
effect is obtained.
Prostatic trouble becomes apparent in nearly all
men after they reach the age of thirty-five or forty. The prostate gland
is a small gland completely surrounding the urethra at the mouth of the
bladder. Poor circulation, faulty nutrition, etc., cause this gland to
become inflamed and swollen, and pain and agony results.
For permanent, lasting results, no other treatment
Will give the practically certain relief that comes from the use of Violet
Rays. Prominent physicians report the most beneficial results in nine out
of ten cases.
Treatment should be taken with either our special
prostatic or insulated rectal applicators. By means of this, heat is brought
in almost direct contact with the gland inside the body and relief is experienced
at once. The circulation is improved, nutriment and oxygen are brought
directly to the gland and the inflammation and pain disappears as if by
magic.
External treatment should be taken over the entire
lower spine. This stimulates and builds up the network of nerves running
to and around the land. A mild current should be used for about five minutes
daily.
ALWAYS insert applicator into the handle with
a straight push and remove with a straight pull. NEVER TWIST.
ALWAYS turn off switch at light socket when
through using. The adjustment knob on the instrument is to regulate the
strength of current not to use as a switch.
NEVER use the generator when in a bathtub
or when connection is made from the body to the ground, by radiators, water
pipes, lighting fixtures, etc.
NEVER use generator on the hair when using
at the same time a hair tonic containing a large percentage of alcohol.
NEVER oil the generator.
NEVER attempt to repair the generators. Should
it get out of order notify us. We will not be responsible for instruments
that have been taken apart by the user or by electrical repairmen other
than our own.

The instrument is wound with our specially prepared impregnated wire, which makes it unnecessary to bake the secondary coil in wax. It is encased in our "grip-tight" indestructible handle and is equipped with seven feet of high-grade cord and separable plug. |
|
The machine is encased in our "grip-tight" indestructible handle equipped with seven feet of cord and separable plug. It is smaller in diameter than any other high-grade one-piece machine on the market and being perfectly balanced, is very easy to hold. The violet ray discharge is powerful and highly diffused, without any disagreeable kick. The machine is packed in a beautiful silk lined carrying case and is equipped with three electrodes, the surface, comb and throat. |
Surface treatments can be given in direct contact
with the skin, and also through the clothing. As any clothing represents
an interposed dry resistance, a treatment through the same would cause
small sparks. It depends entirely on the desired effect, which way to treat.
The instructions given in this booklet refer to the 'proper technique.
If no sparks are desired any clothing covering the part to be treated must
be removed
Metallic objects as hairpins, corset steels, chains,
should be taken off if they cannot be avoided in the treatment.
Keep the applicator in close contact with the body
at any part which requires a mild treatment.
Start with the weakest current possible. Avoid the
initial little discharge which occurs when you bring the applicator close
to the body in making the contact. Make contact quickly and the initial,
discharges will not be annoying. Do the same when the treatment is finished.
Remove the electrode quickly. This will save you the little sparks you
may otherwise feel. By no means does this little spark, when making contact
with the applicator and when removing it, hurt. If you think it does, it
is imaginary. Just use common sense and a little judgment and you will
find that even one-half inch of high Frequency discharge does not cause
any pain.
All orificial electrodes must be lubricates before insertion. They should be properly sterilized. It is wrong to believe that orificial treatments are painful. There is, in fact, no other sensation than that of a beneficial warmth during the application. Orificial treatments should not last over five minutes. It is also advisable to move the electrode during the treatment just slightly so as to avoid its sticking to the mucous membrane. Orificial treatments require, for safety's sake and for better results, always two people, patient and operator. Always turn the current on after insertion of the applicator and turn the current off before removing the same., Use metal electrode No. S6 in the machine and apply to the metal cap of the orificial applicator to prevent breaking glass within the orifice.
Cleanliness is of great importance. Inasmuch as the Violet Ray itself is germicidal in character, all applicators should, nevertheless, be kept clean so that no infection can be spread wherever several people may use the same Violet Ray Instrument. The wiping off of the electrodes on a towel or just rinsing in water is not enough. Use warm water and soap at least to guard against troubles. In cases of skin and scalp diseases, be exceptionally careful. All glass electrodes stand heating and can be boiled in water, If you intend to use some antiseptic solution for immersing the electrode, be sure that the mixture is strong enough. Benetol, Lysol and other solutions are used especially with all orificial electrodes. Rinse these sterilized electrodes in warm water before using them.
1. Insert the Glass Applicator into the handle of
machine.
2. Attach the plug to the lamp socket.
3. Turn the current on: first, electric light switch;
second, knob switch on machine.
4. Turn the adjusting knob switch to the right to
increase, or left to diminish the Violet Ray discharge.
5. In orificial treatments, the electrode should
be first inserted into the orifice without insetting it in the instrument.
Then place Electrode No. S6 in the instrument. Hold this metal electrode
against the metal cap of the orificial electrode. Use lubricant on all
orificial electrodes. (For physicians.)
6. In the indirect treatment, the party to be treated
should bold the instrument, with metal Electrode No. S6 held in the other
hand. The current should then be turned on and some second party, with
either hand, fingertips or another applicator, draw the current to the
desired spot of the patient's body. This method can be used for body massage,
facial massage and scalp treatment.
7. Do not attempt to repair instrument, if the necessity
arises, write to the factory, advising of your difficulties and we will
inform you what to do.
8. Do not use any violet ray instrument in connection
with hair tonic containing alcohol.
9. Any treatment should be started with a mild current
and gradually increased to the required strength.
10. When a treatment is completed, do not forget
to turn off the current at the switch, or, to be on the safe side, remove
plug from the electric light socket. Damage arising from carelessness is
not covered in our guarantee.
11. The standard winding for this instrument is
110 volts. If voltage is higher or lower than 15 per cent, special windings
or series resistances must be used to prevent damage. We will supply all
necessary information upon request.
12. Take care of the connecting cords. They should
be kept dry and free from knots and twists and must be repaired when signs
of wear are apparent.
13. Should you break the glass Electrode off in
the machine accidentally, simply take a pair of long nose pliers and pull
out the broken part, after disconnecting plug from current.

This instrument is equipped with surface, comb, throat, condenser and metal electrodes. The condenser electrode is used where a very powerful penetrating ray is desired, such as in the treatment of rheumatism, etc. and the metal electrode is used for indirect treatments. The outfit can be furnished with a fulguration electrode instead of the condenser for beauty parlor use and is then known as the MARVEL SPECIAL No. 5 B. |
|
The machine is encased in our "grip-tight" indestructible handle and is highly insulated. Nothing but the finest material is used. The workmanship is the finest that can be commanded and the outfit is without comparison. This ozone instrument is equipped with all the most popular electrodes and complete ozone attachment. Especially for physician or family use. It is equipped with surface, comb, throat, metal ozone generator complete with inhalant. Packed in a stunning silk-lined case. |
Abscesses
Keep electrode No. S1 in contact with the skin.
Move it gently over the whole affected area for 3 - 5 minutes. The current
must be very mild. If applied to a developing abscess, its growth can be
arrested.
Acne (Pimples)
Treat the entire surface for about 6 minutes with
Electrode No. S1. Where pustules are forming raise the electrode slightly
to give a small spark for a short time. If many pustules are present treat
through a thin towel or folded handkerchief. This has somewhat of a cauterizing
effect and will soon cause the pimples to ripen and disappear. When the
treatment through an interposed dry resistance, as a towel or handkerchief
seems disagreeable, apply the applicator No. S1 direct, but powder the
skin with talcum powder. This usually suffices to create a dry surface
and at the same time prevents the sticking of the applicator to a damp
skin.
Alopecia (Falling Hair)
Use a weak current at first , and increase to a
medium strength later on with electrode No. S3. Pass
the comb back and forth over the entire scalp for about 4 minutes every
day. Use the same treatment for baldness due to sickness and for gray hair
in order to restore it to its natural color. Do not use Violet Ray immediately
after using hair tonic.
Anaemia
General applications to the naked surface of the
body, which should be dried and powdered with talcum powder, over the chest,
abdomen, back and spine, covering the whole as thoroughly as possible.
Increase the oxygenation of the blood. Treat with No. S1 electrode for
4 - 6 minutes. The regenerative forces for the production of new blood
cells are stimulated to greater activity by the High Frequency current.
The oxygen-carrying properties of the red blood corpuscles are increased.
Ozone inhalation with the Ozone Generator is very helpful. (Ozone Generator
in back of book.)
Arteriosclerosis (Hardening of the Arteries, High Blood Pressure)
Daily treatments of about 5 minutes' duration will
serve to lower the blood pressure. High Frequency currents have the power
of making calcareous deposits soluble. Electricity seeks the path of least
resistance, which, in the body, are the veins, as they contain the conductible
carbonates and impurities which are most in need of purifying action. Apply
electrode No. S1 or No. S2 over the body generally, using a medium current
strength.
Asthma
Apply electrode No. S1 over the chest and No. S5
to throat glands for about 6 minutes. Use a strong current if it can be
tolerated. Also use the Ozone Generator (in back of book). If treatment
is taken when attack is near, much relief can be had and sometimes the
attack can be entirely averted.
Ataxia
The current should be as strong as it can be tolerated
for this treatment. Apply with electrode No. S4 or S1 in the entire spine,
over buttocks, abdomen, and back legs. Daily treatments lasting about 10
minutes are necessary at first . They can be gradually decreased with the
progressing improvement to about two a week.
Backache
Treat sore muscles in back through bath towel with
Electrode No. S1 and cover the entire painful area. This will relieve all
pain. As backache may have different causes, as weakness of the bladder
or sexual organs, lumbago, rheumatism, kidney disease, it is of importance
to treat the cause also.
Barbers Itch
Treat the affected area daily with No. S1 electrode
for about 5 minutes. Small sparks over the whole suface and towards the
edges are very helpful. Treatment through a handkerchief is advisable.
You cannot remove it in one treatment. Therefore, be patient.
Birth Marks
Applications with No. S1 electrode repeated at convenience
and often, using a medium current, will, if used with judgment, remove
them.
Bladder Disease (Cystitis)
Treat with electrode No. S1 or S2 with a strong
current the area over the bladder for 5 minutes twice a day. The urine
will clear fast . Relief is usually quick with strong current.
Boils
(See Furunculosis).
Bronchitis
Short sparks applied through a Turkish towel with
electrode No. S2 over the chest and back, sufficient to produce a reddening
of the skin, help wonderfully. Use the Ozone Generator for inhalations.
(See back of book.)
Blackheads
A mild to medium current applied with Applicator
No. S1 for 3 - 5 minutes at least once every day. This will soon remove
blackheads. Use talcum powder or High Frequency lubricant over the areas
you intend to treat.
Brain Fag
Use applicator No. S1 medium current over the forehead
and eyes, back of head and neck and also down the spine for about 8 minutes.
Relief is sure. Ozone inhalation for about 3 minutes will greatly help
the condition and invigorate the whole system. (See Ozone Generator in
back of book.)
Breast Development
Cover the entire area to be developed in your treatment.
Use electrode No. S1 for about 5 - 7 minutes daily. Move it lightly over
each side, from the neck downward and also from arm pit to arm pit, under
each breast, pressing lightly upward.
Bunions
Use No. S2 or S18 electrode with medium current
for about 6 minutes. Keep the applicator in contact with the skin but move
it slowly over the entire painful area. It will relieve all pain.
Brights Disease
Apply with electrode No. S1 over the region of the
kidneys with a strong current for at least 7 minutes every day. It can
be noticed that the albumen in the urine quickly disappears.
Bruises
No. S1 electrode with mild or medium current applied
to the swollen or painful spot brings immediate results. A few minutes
contact and gentle moving back and forth is sufficient.
Burns
A gentle current for a short time, say about 2 or
3 minutes, taken 2 or 3 times a day and applied with No. S1 electrode does
a lot of good and tends to relieve the pain.
Callouses
Use a strong current with electrode No. S1 or apply
the fulguration electrode No. S20. Spark the skin directly for 1 or 2 minutes.
Repeat as necessity requires.
Cancer
Mild forms of cancer are treated with a strong spark.
Surgery is usually required in conjunction. Use electrode No. S20. Treatment
should be taken only under supervision of a physician. It is often used
in connection with X-Rays.
Canker
A medium current for one or two minutes should be
applied with electrode No. S10, No. 32 or any suitable dental electrode.
Carbuncles
Use applicator No. S1 for 5 - 6 minutes twice a
day over the carbuncle, keeping it in contact with the same. A medium current
strength is sufficient. Electrode No. 9 is also very convenient.
Catarrh-Nasal
Rub electrode No. S1 using a medium current, over
the outer surface of nose and also the back of the neck for about 5 minutes.
Take Ozone Inhalation with the Ozone Generator (see back of book). Electrode
No. S52 is successfully used in nostrils.
Cataract
Close eyelids and use electrode No. S18 with a weak
current for 4 minutes. Results are often surprising.
Chilblains
Treat the affected part with No. S1 electrode for
6 - 8 minutes. Keep the applicator in contact and use a medium current.
Cold Extremities
Use a strong current with electrode No. S2 for about
5 minutes over the entire part. Produce a reddening of the skin, keeping
the applicator in contact but moving it. Repeat, if necessary, 3 times
a day.
Colds in Head
Apply No. S1 electrode over nose, above eyes and
the sides of face. Use a medium current about twice or 3 times a day and
take also Ozone Inhalations for several minutes with the Ozone Generator.
(See back of book). Ozone Inhalations are very beneficial in this case.
Physicians use also successfully electrode No. S52 on nostrils.
Colds in Lungs
Treat the chest and back in the same manner as explained
under Asthma. Take Ozone Inhalations repeatedly for several minutes. (See
back of book.)
Constipation
Apply a strong current with No. S2 over the entire
abdominal area. Treat for at least 6 minutes, keeping the electrode moving
at all times. Physicians use electrode No. S32, 33, 34, 35 and 36 to great
advantage. These electrodes should be lubricated before insertion into
the rectum. 5 minutes of the orificial treatment is sufficient. Use S6
in conjunction with rectal electrodes.
Consumption
The party to receive the treatment must be stripped
of all clothing to the waist line. The skin of the trunk of the body should
be dried and powdered with talcum powder all over. Use electrode No. S2
and apply the High Frequency Current to the chest. Start with medium current
strength and increase to heavy discharge by and by. Move the applicator
also towards the throat. This starts the secretory glands to action and
improves the nutrient blood supply through the tissues. Fill your lungs
as much as possible, by deep breathing. Do this repeatedly. Move from chest
towards both sides of body and also gastric region. Then after 5 - 6 minutes
of front application have the back treated. A strong current should be
used over the shoulder blades, the spinal nerve centers and the kidneys.
Ozone inhalation using the Ozone Generator (see back of book) is of the
greatest importance. It is in tubercular conditions where Ozone Inhalations
do the best work.
Corns
Take electrode No. S1 or S18 and turn it on its
edge so that the spark passes from its edge instead of from its face and
hold it about 1/8 inch from the corn. Allow short sparks to pass into the
corn for a few seconds only. Repeat this in a day or two. Applications
with No. S18, which is hollow shaped, direct over the corn in close contact
for 2 or 3 minutes are very pain-relieving.
Deafness
Ear electrode No. S10 or preferably S56 gives excellent
results. Use a mild current for about 3 minutes, inserting the electrode
deep into ear. If the heating effect becomes too marked, interrupt treatment
and repeat at convenience. Treatments twice daily are sufficient. Applications
with No. S1 to the back of the ear are also helpful.
Diabetes
If proper diet is observed and application with
No. S1 or No. S2 are made over the abdomen, results are gratifying in a
few weeks. Apply a strong current for about 5 minutes through a thin towel
twice every day.
Dandruff
Shampoo the scalp before treatment, dry it thoroughly
and apply a medium current with applicator No. S3 using it in the same
manner as an ordinary comb. 3 to 5 minutes are sufficient. Repeat this
treatment at intervals of 2 - 3 days. Do not use any hair tonic.
Dysepsia
Use electrode No. S1 or preferably No. S2 over the
region of the stomach. Daily applications of 6 minutes will in most cases
show considerable improvement. A strong current is necessary. Decrease
treatment gradually; do not entirely stop with them at once.
Earache. Ear Diseases
Insert electrode No. S10 and use a mild current
for short periods of time. Applications to the back of the ear with No.
S1 assist this treatment greatly. It may in some cases be necessary to
take hourly applications. The circumstances have to dictate this necessity.
If heating effect during treatment is too marked, interrupt application
and repeat it at convenience.
Eczema
Lay a handkerchief or piece of thin cloth over the
affected area and treat with electrode No. S1 through the same with a mild
current at first. Increase the current strength during the treatment if
it can be tolerated. If the skin itches--lift the electrode slightly from
the cloth. This will bring quick relief. Daily treatments lasting 3 - 5
minutes effect a cure in nearly all cases.
Epilepsy
Use electrode No. S1 in contact over the brain and
electrode No. S4 along the spine, moving it up and down. A medium discharge
for 5 - 7 minutes is sufficient. Repeat every other day.
Eye Diseases
Iritis, Redinitis, Atrophy of the Optic Nerve. Conjunctivitis,
Trachoma, Glaucoma, Incipient Cataract, Paralysis of Ocular Muscles, Intra-ocular
Hemorrhage have been successfully treated by the Violet Ray High Frequency
current. Close eyelids and apply a mild current with electrode No. S16,
No. S39 for short periods, not exceeding 3 minutes at one time. Repeat
as desirable.
Falling Hair
(See Alopecia)
Felons
Treat with No. S1 electrode and a mild current in
close contact daily from 4 - 6 minutes.
Female Troubles
Physicians use electrodes No. S13, S30 and No. S31.
They should be lubricated before insertion. A medium current for 5 minutes
is applied. Repeat treatment as circumstances require. During menstruation
an excessive flow of blood may result as High Frequency currents draw the
blood. Turn the current on after insertion of electrode and turn the current
off before removing the electrode to avoid unnecessary sparking. (See technique.)
Electrode No. S6 should always be used in conjunction
with orificial electrodes.
Fistulas
Use electrode No. S14, 33, 35, 36 as indicated.
Lubricate before insertion into rectum. Use a medium current for about
5 minutes daily.
Electrode No. S6 should always be used in conjunction
with orificial electrodes.
Flabby Breast
Apply No. S1 electrode to whole surface of breast
with medium current for 4 - 6 minutes every day.
Freckles
Cover surface with gauze. Use electrode No. S1 daily
from 4 - 6 minutes with a medium current. Results are apt to be slow, therefore,
be patient.
Frost Bites
No. S1 applicator with a medium current strength,
allowing short sparks to pass to the affected parts for about 3 - 5 minutes
every two or three hours brings lasting results in a short time.
Furunculosis
Boils, treat with No. S1 electrode. Mild or medium
current strength. Inflammation ceases quickly.
Goitre
Many cases yield to application with No. S5 Electrode,
using the strongest current that can be tolerated. It can be treated direct
by making contact with the electrode. Sometimes it is treated through gauze.
The latter way is more recommendable. Do not treat longer than 4 minutes
at a time every day. Results are usually not apparent until after the 10th
or 12th treatment.
Gout
Apply electrode No. S1 to painful area with medium
current keeping the applicator in contact but moving it slowly about. The
pain may increase at first but relief will be felt after a few treatments.
Gray Hair
The natural color of hair can often be restored
by patient treatments with Electrode No. S3. See under Alopecia. Sometimes
2 months are required for first results. Keep the scalp clean. Use a current
of sufficient strength for good stimulation every day once or twice.
Grippe (Influenza)
Cover the spine and solar plexus with applications
by No. S1 electrode. Also treat over the eyes and sides of nose. Treatments
to spine and solar plexus should be made through a turkish towel for 5
- 7 minutes and repeated twice a day if necessary. Intra-nasal applications
of short duration with Electrode No. S10 and a weak current are often given
by physicians in addition to the mentioned treatment.
Hay Fever
Apply electrode No. S1 over the nose and along spine
with medium current for 5 minutes and No. S10 or No. S28 in nostrils for
short period of time. Applicatons should be of short duration but often
repeated. It is advisable to anticipate the trouble and to begin treatments
before attacks are expected or discomfort felt. Ozone treatments are of
the greatest benefit.
Headaches
They are from varying causes. If relief is not felt
by applying No. S1 electrode to the seat of the headache, cover the stomach
and spine by treatment, using a medium current for 5 - 7 minutes.
Hives and Rash
Use electrode No. S1 with medium current strength
to affected area. Use High Frequency Lubricant before applying the electrode.
3 - 5 minutes should be sufficient. Repeat daily.
Infantile Paralysis
If this disease leaves muscles feeble and weak High
Frequency applictions help wonderfully well to make them grow again. Use
No. S1 electrode with medium or strong current for 5 - 7 minutes. Apply
in direct contact and move the applicator over the entire area to be developed.
Inflammations
Can be reduced and relieved by application with
applicator No. S1. Move it slowly over the inflamed area, keeping it in
close contact. Use a medium current strength for 5 - 6 minutes.
Influenza
(See Grippe.)
Insomnia
Cover the back of the head, neck and eyebrows by
application with electrode No. S1. A strong current is essential in treating
this ailment. 5 - 7 minutes should be the average length of treatment.
Impotence
The most beneficial way of treating this condition
is by the use of the prostatic tube No. S9, with plenty of spark. Use surface
electrode No. S1, slightly raised over the area of the genital and spine
for 5 - 7 minutes daily. Special information on weakness of the organs
of sex is given elsewhere in this book.
Leucorrhea
Follow the directions given under female troubles.
Also use electrode No. S4, moving it up and down the spine slowly. A strong
current must be used for about 5 - 6 minutes every day. This treatment
should only be an adjunct to medicinal treatment and physician's care.
Lumbago
Since the object is to relieve pain, treat the painful
areas with Electrode No. S2 until all pain is dispelled. Repeat treatment
whenever pain appears until cured.
Massage
Let patient hold metal Electrode in one hand, turning
on current after it has been grasped. Masseur's fingers will draw spark
to point massaged.
Mumps
Treat swollen parts. Use Electrode No. S1.
Nervousness
Treat spine, back of head and neck. Immediate results
will be felt.
Neuralgia
Apply to seat of pain, raising the Electrode occasionally
to produce spark.
Neuritis
The first few treatments usually increase the pain
after which relief is felt and the current may be increased and a short
spark given. Apply at the seat of pain. Use electrode S1, S2.
Obesity
Apply electrode No. S1 to affected parts and treat
consistently. Begin as indicated and increase current as strong as tolerable.
Fat will decrease and redistribute, giving greater comfort.
Pains
The pain-relieving quality of the High Frequency
current is wonderful. Apply electrode No. S1 to the seat of pain until
relief is felt. Close contact is best. Medium current strength and sometimes
strong currents are advised.
Paralysis
Apply No. S1 electrode along the affected muscles.
A strong current is necessary. Keep the electrode moving. Treat for about
6 minutes at a time. Lubricate the affected part so that the electrode
slides easily. Sparks through a turkish towel help quickly. Use this method
every day.
Phthisis
(See Consumption.)
Piles (Hemorrhoids and other rectal diseases)
Are treated best with applicators No. S14, No. S35,
No. S33, No. S34, No. S36. Lubricate electrode before insertion with High
Frequency lubricant. Use a medium current for about 3 minutes not more
than once a day. Electrode S6 should always be used in conjunction with
others.
Pimples (Acne Vulgaris)
(See Acne.)
Pleurisy
Use preferably electrode No. S2. Cover the back
and the chest by a vigorous treatment through a turkish towel until the
skin becomes quite red. Keep the electrode moving and treat for about 8
minutes. High frequency is an adjunct only in cases of serious sickness
and nobody should fail to consult the proper authority.
Pneumonia
Ozone inhalation, repeated often with the Ozone
Generator (see Electrode Catalogue) is very beneficial. Otherwise apply
the same treatment as given under Pleurisy. Remember that High Frequency
as an adjunct can help greatly and often do wonders, but in all grave diseases
the consultation of an authoritative physician should and must be resorted
to.
Poison Ivy
Apply High Frequency lubricant first. Use No. S1
or S2 electrode edgewise so as to cause plenty of sparking over the whole
affected area. Lift the appolicator here and there and treat with a strong
current for 3 - 5 minutes. Relief is sure and surprising.
Pyorrhea
Applications with electrode No. S10 or S56 with
a weak or medium current help greatly to re-establish a healthy condition
of the gums. A removal of deposits is necessary, however, by mechanical
and surgical means in order to fight this disease. A dentist must be consulted.
High Frequency treatments promote proper nutritional improvements and in
addition to this have antiseptic and antitoxic properties.
Red Nose (Acne Rosacea)
Use preferably electrode No. S1 and apply only short
periods, say about 2 minutes, small sparks by holding the electrode edgeways
or lifting it somewhat about an eighth of an inch. The object is to destroy
the enlarged veins. The treatment must not be carried too far at one time.
It should be repeated as the condition permits. Several days' rest between
treatments may sometimes be advisable.
Rheumatism
Strong currents have to be used in all cases of
Rheumatism. This disease responds quickly, especially cases of the muscular
and chronic articular form. In acute cases of this ailment the results
are slower but nevertheless satisfactory. The affected parts should be
treated until all pain ceases. Changing the position of parts or extremities
being treated will likely expose other parts requiring treatment. Put muscles
on the stretch and use High Frequency current long enough to dispell all
discomfort. Applicator No. S2 is especially recommended for these treatments.
Repeat these applications as often as pain reappears. 10 minutes' use of
the instrument at one time is usually enough. The applicator can be used
in close contact but most cases require treatment through clothing or several
layers of a towel.
Ringworm
Use electrode No. S1 and apply short sparks for
several minutes two or three times every other day. A medium current is
sufficient. Move the electrode so as to cover all the affected area.
Scalp Treatment
Dandruff, falling hair, gray hair, baldness, itching
scalp, etc., are very successfully benefitted by Violet Rays. There is
no question that the Violet Ray represents the most scientific method of
treating the scalp. Its beneficial value is beyond all doubt.
Violet Rays produce a normal and healthy scalp,
revitalize impoverished hair, restore its natural lustre and fullness.
They bring in new hair by causing additional nourishment to flow to the
dormant papilla.
Use electrode No. S3 every day one to three times
for several minutes. Do not use any hair tonic. Violet Rays constitute
the best hair tonic themselves.
In baldness the Violet Ray proves to be of a very
welcome and effective assistance to restore the natural growth of hair.
The results are very satisfactory. Conscientious use of Violet Ray High
Frequency Current and patience have here, as in many other instances, surprised
many people.
Gray hair has been restored to its original color
and beauty in many cases. We do not claim too much by saying that scalp
applications with electrode No. S3 are the only reliable means at the present
time to stimulate and assist natural growth of hair.
Sciatica
Is an affection of the great sciatic nerve trunk.
Its cause is found in neuralgia and also sometimes in rheumatism. The sciatic
nerves run down the thigh from hip to knee. They lie near the bones deep
under the heavy muscles. Sometimes they become so inflamed and tender that
even the slightest pressure causes an extreme pain. A counter-irritating
discharge applied through the clothing or over the painful area with electrode
No. S1 or S2 will bring quick relief.
Skin Disease
In all skin diseases the High Frequency spray (small
sparks) is most successfully applied. Electrode No. S1 is sufficient in
nearly all cases. It should be passed rapidly back and forth over the affected
area for several minutes. If the skin is moist, talcum powder should be
used so that the electrode will not stick. Another easy method is to spread
gauze over the part to be treated. This will enable the use of the instrument
to move the electrode smoothly and at the same time does not remove it
far enough to cause an unpleasant spark.
Where itching is very marked longer and sharper
sparks are best. Apply these only for short periods. Epithelioma, Lupus
and Chronic Ulcers can be treated in the same manner.
Stiff Neck and Joints
Apply in the same manner as explained under "Neuritis."
Use a longer treatment, if necessary. In cases of Torticollia (stiff neck)
rub the No. S1 electrode frequently along back of ear and down the neck
on both sides for 3 - 5 minutes.
Sore Feet and Stone Bruises
Applications with any suitable applicator in close
contact with the skin bring quick relief. Use High Frequency lubricant
and treat for several minutes.
Sore Throat
Electrode No. S5 is best suited for external throat
applications. High Frequency lubricant should be used and the electrode
moved up and down the throat in close contact, covering all parts well
for 5 or 6 minutes with a medium or strong current: repeat 2 or 3 times
a day in some obstinate cases.
Sprains
Close contact applications with a surface applicator
prove helpful. Use a medium current and in cases of long standing use small
sparks or treatment through towel. 4 or 5 minutes usually suffices.
Tonsilitis
Use No. S5 electrode and apply in the same manner
as explained under "Sore Throat." Physicians use electrode No. S58 internally
with fine success. Ozone inhalation with Ozone Generator (see Electrode
Catalogue) assist greatly.
Tuberculosis
(See Consumption.)
Ulcers
Apply a strong current with No. S2 or No. S3 electrode
for 5 minutes in contact, lifting the applicator once in a while to produce
sparks of at least one-quarter inch. Repeat this treatment every day.
Warts
Take electrode No. S1, hold it about one-eighth
or three-sixteenths inch from warts and allow sparks to pass from the edge
of the glass. For the best results use electrode No. S20. Let the Platinum
point rest directly on top of the wart and use a weak current. Pass a stronger
current through the deeper crustation. A few seconds are usually sufficient.
Wait 2 or 3 days for results and repeat operation, if necessary.
Whooping Cough
Apply No. S1 electrode in the same way as explained
under "Asthma" and use also Ozone Inhalation with the Ozone Generator.
(See Electrode Catalogue.)
Writers' Cramp
Apply No. S1 electrode with medium current for about
6 minutes from fingertips along back of hand and arm to shoulder and spine.
This treatment can also be made through a towel if it can be tolerated.
Wrinkles
Are commonly caused by using a given set of facial
muscles more than normally. They can be removed by applying Electrode No.
S1 right over them with a rotary, massaging movement. High Frequency current
revitalizes tired muscles and arrests the blighting marks of time.

We cannot too strongly recommend
the use of our Therapeutic Lamps in connection with the violet ray treatment.
The rays developed by these lamps penetrate deep into the flesh, greatly
stimulating glandular activity. The opening of the pores, due to the heat
rays, give the high frequency current ready access to the part in treatment.
The combined actions of the heat, light and high frequency current, have
a pronounced germicidal effect and is especially recommended for pimples,
boils, eczema, barbers itch and such conditions which involve the skin.
On the following pages we have illustrated two types of lamps, both of which have been successfully used in connection with the violet ray. The lamp should be permanently fastened and is preferably mounted on one of our telescoping and collapsible stands. This will hold the lamp absolutely rigid and in the desired position, leaving the operator or patient free to apply the violet ray machine. |
