My business is aiding nature to dispose of this unwel= come abnormality. I accomplish this by means of a physio- logical, scientific system of manual manipulation of the structuré which, by accelerating the circulation, increases combustion and so facilitates the natural elimination of a diseased condition. In short, I make it possible for, the body to purify itself by improving the circulation. This is the object and certain result of Mechano Therapy.


I do not disparage the noble art of the physician and surgeon, and if your sickness is not amenable to Mechano- Therapy, I shall tell you so frankly.
