Comments on Reprint of Chart No. 14 from Book III
The finger contact is on the apex of the sacrum and is used in a gentle directional vibration.
The hand on the hip gives an upward and toward-the-table rocking directional movement to open the way for the sacral position.
The apex contact is held steady during this time.
Rock, hold, rest; then repeat a few times.
Then have the patient stand for line-up again and you will be amazed at the wonderful results, even in many unyielding cases previously treated by other methods.
Figure 2 in this chart shows an anterior sacral base correction.
The contact is made with the thumb, near the middle of Poupart's [inguinal] ligament and close to it until you feel the sacrum under it. Make a soft-cushion contact of the thumb, like a rocker arm, and not stiff like a point. A firm but gentle contact makes this a powerful correction for the more stubborn anterior sacral base condition.
Have the patient inhale first, then slowly exhale as you lift the head, so the exhalation is complete by the time the head is raised as far as toleration will permit. Start slowly, with short lifts, and increase the stretch as you repeat the move three or four times. Another check-up against the plumbline [plumb-line] will reveal the surprising amount of correction obtained by this simple POLARITY THERAPY.
