The three degrees of treatment, in their ap-plication to the cord, should be applied be-tween the transverse processes of the spinalvertebrae which are immediately over the pos-terior division of the spinal nerves.

REGIONAL RESUME I5I cord, and is communicated at the jvmcture ofthe anterior and posterior roots in the inter-vertebral foramen, to the anterior division ofthe spinal nerves, and through the rami com-mucantes, to the sympathetic nerves lying onthe head of the ribs. See Plate VI, oppositepage 78. Length of Treatment, Individual judgment, based somewhat upona knov^edge of the temperament and personalidiosyncrasies of the patient as well as uponthe condition of the local area affected, willhave to be relied upon to determine the lengthof time that treatment shall be applied to agiven point.
