The trend of our present policy advocates methods of depolarizing X-rays that can be executed entirely by the X-rayed victim, without involving and jeopardizing an assistant.

The following are a few suggestions to serve as a guide. Allow five or more days between sessions for repolarizing each X-rayed area. Remember it is important to isolate yourself and exercise for one half hour after polarizing. Remember, too, your success will depend on your accuracy.

(1) Avoid eating one half hour before polarizing and an additional one half hour after, as the digestion of food diverts the energy wave flow to the stomach.

(2) Be certain the field is in a steady state and have your channel well marked.

(3) Keep your head level, feet apart and eyes shut while polarizing. Remove shoes and polarize in bare or stocking feet.

(4) It is most important not to make any manoeuvres that will change the level position of the head while polarizing.

General Method: Position your body correctly in your channel facing to your Vivaxis with your head tilted down. Stress by putting pressure on the bones in the X-rayed area to upset the foreign wave pattern. It is imperative there be no time interval between stressing and repolarizing. Therefore, the instant the former is completed, jerk the head sharply into the correct level position for polarizing. Stand with eyes shut for a count of ten seconds, to allow time for the upset spin pattern of the X-rayed area to realign. Then turn in the opposite direction, assume the correct stance and stand for ten seconds to complete the realignment process. It is only necessary to stress the X-rayed area in the first position as described above.

It is safe to use the hands for upsetting the spin pattern but only when the head is tilted down. After stressing is over and during the period of polarizing when the head is level the hands must be held downwards in a static position.

Head and Neck X-rays:

Where both the head and the back of the neck have been X-rayed the best results are achieved by repolarizing in two sessions, due to the number of small bones involved, especially within the neck.

To upset the spin pattern of the head X-rays, tilt the head down and with both hands rapidly slap all parts of the head and neck. Jerk the head to the level position and continue with the polarizing procedure to realign the head X-rays.

After a five day interval complete the repolarizing by concentrating entirely on the bone structure of the neck. Align to your Vivaxis with head level. Jerk the head sharply to the left side and vigorously back again to the direction of your channel. Immediately polarize for five seconds with eyes shut. With the body still facing towards your Vivaxis repeat this procedure twisting the head to the right side and then forward; align again for another five seconds. Similarly, jerk the head down and finally back to its fullest extent, polarizing for five seconds each time.

Turn your body in the opposite direction and without further preliminary manoeuvres polarize for a ten second period.

Teeth X-Rays:

These generally affect the entire jaw and cheek bones. Stand in your channel facing your Vivaxis and with your head tilted down rapidly and thoroughly bang around the cheek and jaw bones, all the while champing your teeth firmly together. Sharply bring your head up and polarize facing first to your Vivaxis and then in the opposite direction, for ten second periods in each case.

Chest X-Rays:

In order to stress the bones around the chest two small sand bags are used, each of approximately three pounds in weight. With a sand bag in each hand, body faced to your channel and head tilted down the arms are exercised repeatedly. Rapidly and vigorously they are thrust upwards and down; sideways to their fullest extent and back again; extended forwards and then returned to the body. In addition the shoulder bones are banged. Then straighten up sharply and align in the usual manner for ten seconds; reverse direction and align again for ten seconds.

After the bones have been polarized face into your channel and once more polarize while you take three deep breaths; turn a full right angle and repeat three deep breaths; turn 180 degrees and finally 270 degrees, repeating three breaths each time.

Feet X-Rays:

Stress and polarize one foot at a time. Strain and exercise the foot vigorously while keeping weight on the ball of the foot. After one foot is stressed, quickly align in your channel for eight seconds and repeat in the reverse direction for a similar time. If the other foot has been X-rayed and requires repolarizing, repeat the procedure aligning for eight seconds in each direction.

The principles are the same for the rest of the body. Remember, head down while stressing, work rapidly, and stand still when aligning.

If you have successfully removed the interference of X-rays from all bones or parts of bones, you should be able to locate the direction of your channel with two angle wires, as illustrated in Vivaxis. However, it is often difficult to free all the bones and isolated areas of bone from foreign wave interference. An X-ray generally includes a much larger area than we realize. For example, a chest X-ray usually takes in the shoulder bones and the arm to below the elbow, the bones of the spine down to the waist and the ribs. The shoulder joints are often stubborn and take special stressing and firm tapping.

If foreign wave interference is still indicated test with a swivel chain suspended in one hand. Barring interference in receptor cells it should swing back and forth when you press on a bone that has your own alignment; if it stops or circulates as you press then wave interference is indicated and corrective measures can be taken.

While you are polarizing in your channel never bang bones that are in correct alignment since this will tend to disturb and unbalance their co-ordination.
