Toxo Absorbent - Bake Oven Cure...Solar ray absorbent, vibratory massage, magnetic healing, thermal, steam baths. The treatment of disease by naturopathy invariably results in a cure. Why? Because naturopathy removes the cause. We are prepared to cure any case of stomach trouble, constipation, nervousness, neuralgia, rheumatism, tumor or cancer, or tell you it is beyond human cure.
