ITHACA, N. Y., May 23—Dr. Henry P. de Forest,
of New York City, and Dr. Horace G. Baldwin, of Tan-
nersville, N. Y., have been conducting researches in the
medical laboratories at Cornell University here to discov
er the anatomical basis for what they are confident is a
cure fo rvarious nervous irritations commonly mistaken
for rheumatism. A series of ailments thought to be rheu
matic but really caused by mechanical nerve irritation
can be and have been cured by these physicians, but they
have yet to find the anatomic substantiation of their
meth od.
Among the numerous diseases which the researchers
feel certain are susceptible of cure by their methods are
nervous prostration, neuritis, diabetes, Raynaud's disease
sciatica, lumbago, neuralgia, angina pectoris and various
-lassed
as
-net
forms of painful affections generally
matic. Such ailments, they say, are not really rheumatic,
but are caused by mchanical nrve irritation.
The two doctors have treated thousands of supposed
rheumatic cases with success. '"We have done it, but how
did we do it?" is the question they are asking themselves
in their research work.
Drs. de Forest and Baldwin are working upon the
theory that the afflictions named and other allied diseas-
es have their seat in the sacro iliac joint, at the base-'of
the back, where the two pelvic bones are joined by the
small ilium, the dorsal bone of the pelvis. A slight dis-
location of this bone, they have proved to their own sat
isfaction, exerts pressure on nerves passing through the
joint and may cause pain in the foot for one man or
headache for another. By setting this bone in place they
have worked "seemingly miraculous cures."
This is the mechanical need of their knowledge. The
Hundreds of thousands of people throughout the
country will surely laugh at the presumption of the
two medical men referred to in assuming that they
have ''discovered" anything new. The old adage,
"There is nothing new under the sun" has again been
exemplified.
WHAT IS CHIROPRACTIC?
The American Illustrated Medical Dictionary, by
W. A. Borland, M. D., a member of the committee on
nomenclature and classification of - diseases of the
American MEDICAL ASSOCIATION, has the fol-
lowing definnition of Chiropractic, i. t.*
CKIIiOPRACTii.—A system i f ad'-ustulcjU' consist-
ing: of paipatation of the spiral Culimm to ascertain ver-
tebra? subluxations, f^iowed V- the adjustment of them
by hand in order to 'relieve pressure upon nerves ai the
intervertebral foramina so thai nerve may flow
i' -z, . u i '••.£. bram to the rest of the body —(Primer.)
CAUSES MUCH COMMENT
anatomic substantiation of the m - hod they are at loss to
explain. They have procured the use of the Cornell anat-
omy laboratory and joined forces to attempt a solution of
the question.
With the whole-hearted cooperation of -.he staff of
the Cornell Medical College, the physicians have been del-
ving for the connecting link which they are certain exists
in relationship between the sympathetic nervous system
and the sacroiliac joint. By dissection, by study of the
human skeleton, by actual experiment on living patients
and by the aid of the X Ray they have sought for the
thing which by a slight dislocation of the pelvic structure
is apt to cause sciatic pains in the leg or any one of a
host of complaints.
Dr. de r orest has observed and treated more than
1,000 cases in the last year, and Dr. Baldwin about 2,000
in the last three years. Their results have in practically
every case substantiated their theory. In one case a
seemingly hopeless cripple w? s enabled to stand and his
pain was ceased within eight hours of treatment. They
reiate another instance of a man afflicted with chronic
headache who was almost immediately relieved and cured
They tell of the cure of a man crippld in such a way
that he was unable to lie in bed only on his side. The pa-
tient had been ill for years, and the cure was effected in
three hours.
Scientists are greatly interested in their research
work. Dr. A. T. Kerr, secretary of the Cornell Medical
College, put his private laboratory at the disposal of the
physicians, a d cooperated with them in every way.
It is hoped that the treatment, once it is analyzed
and its anatomic basic discovered may be applied by
small-town physicians in all esses of the sort.
