Hold the blunt endof the electrode stationary upon each part it covers for aboutone .minute and slowly rotate it over all the diseased area untilthe entire surface is treated with negative electrolysis. Repeat these applications at intervals of from four to sixdays accordingto the progress of the case. So long as the general condition of the pelvic structures de-rives benefit from the sedative-tonic, nutritional bipolar fara-dization, increased in dosage as improvement permits increas-ing stimulation, follow each galvanic sitting with about tenminutes of the coil current. If the galvanic applications are a week apart two inter-currentbipolar treatments may be given with decided advantage. The practical merits of this plan will be apparent in the gainin the general health, sleep, appetite, nutrition and composureof the patient, and these benefits will in turn help nature torepair the local damage.
