The Master Violet Ray
Master Appliance Company, Inc
Undated (Early Twentieth Century)
VIOLET RAYS
The Violet Ray is a pleasant, effective means of
applying the wonderful power of electricity to the human body without pain,
sensation or shock, and is without an equal in relieving pain and congestion,
stimulating the circulation and restoring good health, vigor and youth.
The Violet Ray is the ordinary electric current
obtained from any socket, nebulized and split up into infinite parts and
produced through glass applicators called electrodes, in a violet colored
stream, hence its name, VIOLET RAY. A huge voltage of electricity is obtained
and applied to the body or hair but without any shock, whatever, the only
sensation being a pleasant warmth.
Violet Ray Treatments surely relieve pain in any
part of the body. The electrical currents penetrate every cell and tissue
of the body, and tranquilize and soothe. Violet Rays stimulate and strengthen
the vital organs, build up the natural forces, steady the nerves, and develop
the general health and conditions of the body. High frequency electrical
currents carry oxygen to the blood, thus purifying this vital body fluid.
Violet Rays equalize the circulation in congested parts and restore bruised
and inflamed tissues to normal.
A Master Violet Ray is applied through vacuum applicators
or electrodes made of annealed glass. These electrodes diffuse the electrical
current in sprays of a beautiful deep violet color. These sprays or sparks
vibrate to and fro, or oscillate at the rate of several hundred thousand
times per second. This rapid vibration is what produces the pleasing, invigorating
and corrective effects derived from Violet Ray Treatments.
A few minutes' application each day, simply holding
the applicator in the hand, furnishes a tonic to the system which does
much to fight disease and keep the body in a healthy state. Inasmuch as
prevention is to be desired a thousandfold rather than a cure, this one
point alone makes the Master Violet Ray indispensable in your home.
Many authorities state that impaired circulation
of the blood causes most ailments. The Violet Ray by stimulating the circulation,
thus wards off disease, saving you much unhappiness and suffering.
With the knowledge that electricity, Nature's greatest
health agent, was a vital factor in the treatment of various diseases of
the body, there has been a constant untiring effort to improve the method
of application and increase the power of this wonderful agent.
The wide use of electricity produced through various types of apparatus
finally led to the discovery of the Violet Ray, otherwise known as High
Frequency, which has solved many problems and today furnishes the most
efficient and powerful phase of electricity known for the relief and destruction
of the various diseases and germs of the body.
The Violet Ray offers a pleasant, effective means
of destroying germs and banishing various diseases while building up the
tissues and toning up the system generally. The Violet Ray while introducing
all the power of electrical energy into the body, does so without the slightest
pain, shock or contraction of muscles. In fact the application of the Violet
Ray produces a pleasing sensation. The amazing results secured through
Violet Ray treatment, immediately caused it to be accepted by the professions,
and today you can hardly find any physician's office not equipped with
Violet Ray Apparatus.
Now this remarkable factor is made available to
you for use in your own home, at a price within the reach of anyone. We
have built an effective Violet Ray instrument that is the essence of simplicity,
made so a child may operate it, and at the same time we have an instrument
that produces the Violet Ray unexcelled by machines costing many times
as much without the unique and practical features of our instruments.
WHAT VIOLET RAYS DO
Violet Rays or High Frequency Currents benefit all
living matter. Through the glass vacuum applicator light, heat, electric
energy and ozone are created. These forces are uniformly, potent in relieving
and eliminating human ailments. Violet Rays present a remedy upon which
we can rely. They are positive and certain in action. They will reach where
medicine does not and often cannot reach yet they cause no pain, no disagreeable
sensation, no discomfort. They furnish a soothing relief. They destroy
germs and have a strong power over infection.
The uses for the Master Violet Ray are practically
unlimited. Not only are ordinary pains and aches removed, but deep seated
ailments of long standing are often entirely eliminated.
VIOLET RAYS SAFE TO USE
There is no danger
with the Violet Ray. It can he applied to the most sensitive parts and
the treatment is agreeable and exhilarating. You simply connect the machine
to any convenient light socket on direct or alternating current and it
is ready for any treatment. People were very skeptical about the claims
that we made for Master treatments till they found that physicians not
only strongly endorsed its use, but treated their patients with it with
very gratifying results. You will find the Master in the office of many
doctors. The Master Violet Ray in the home is good health insurance.
SELECTIVE EFFECTS OBTAINABLE
A. A sedative, quieting or soothing effect can be obtained and is of
great benefit in all nervous ailments. This effect can be produced locally
by keeping the electrode in close contact with the part to be treated.
Painful sensations can be relieved, irritated nerves tranquilized and soothed.
Nervous disorders are quickly and beneficially influenced by a sedative
treatment.
B. A stimulating effect is produced when
the electrode is lifted somewhat during the application or used through
the clothing or a cloth which has been put over the part to be treated.
The length of the stimulating sparks depends on thickness of the clothing
or cloth placed between the electrode and the body. Uniformity in spark
length is insured by the cloth.
Stimulating treatments through clothing are very
beneficial in rheumatism, lumbago, partial paralysis, etc. Skin disorders,
where the circulation is impaired, are often greatly benefited by a slight
stimulation. A single layer of a handkerchief produces enough resistance
in such cases. An ordinary towel is best to use in chronic rheumatism and
similar affections.
MASTER VIOLET RAYS FOR BEAUTY
If Nature has not endowed you with the charms that you desire, or if work
and worry have left their lines in your face and figure, you can erase
them with the Master Violet Ray. Rich, red blood is brought to the skin
with the use of the Violet Ray. It nourishes the tissues and cells and
brings the radiant hue of health and beauty to the skin. All facial blemishes
quickly vanish.
All modern beauty specialists use the Violet Ray
in the treatment of the hair and skin.
Treatment of Hair
Practically every disease of the scalp and hair,
such as dandruff, failing hair, etc., can be traced to the improper circulation
of the blood flowing through the scalp. The Violet Ray when applied to
the hair has a direct action on the tiny nerve and blood vessels, stimulating
them to perform their proper functions. The ozone generated acts as a germicidal
agent and destroys any organism present, making dandruff impossible. A
few treatments will suffice to convince you of the wonderful results accomplished.
It is a proven fact that persistent use of the Violet Ray will restore
grey hair to its natural color.
The use of the Violet Ray for a few minutes each
day will make the hair thick, healthy and beautiful.
As a beautifying agent the Violet Ray is unexcelled, as it brings a fresh
glow to the skin, producing a clear youthful complexion. It quickly removes
Pimples, Blackheads, Boils, Warts, an d other Blemishes.
It removes Dandruff, Eczema, Itchy Scalp and Skin
Diseases. Every woman should have this outfit in her home for use on the
hair alone, aside from the other innumerable purposes to which it may be
put.
As a bust developer, the Master Violet Rays will
be of material assistance. A special electrode suitable for the purpose
is made.
The Violet Ray Refreshes the Body. The results obtained
through Violet Ray applications will be a revelation to you and in a remarkably
short time will bring your body, health and appearance to that condition
that Nature intended it should be.
CELLULAR MASSAGE
When the electrode is brought near the body the flow
of Violet Ray is apparent in one direction only. That is from the applicator
to the body. Actually. However, the direction of the flow alternates from
the applicator to the body and then from the body to the applicator thousands
of times per second. This causes the cells of the body to vibrate accordingly,
which gives the effects of a massage, and tends to revive and invigorate
the bodily tissues by rebuilding each individual cell of which it is composed.
This is one of the most beneficial results of the Violet Ray.
HOW TO USE MASTER VIOLET RAYS
Three distinct methods of application are in general use according to the
conditions present and the results desired.
First Local applications. Given with specific
surface of orificial applicators made for that purpose.
A beneficial warmth is induced by the action of
the Violet Ray, the capillaries of the skin are stimulated. The local blood
supply in the treated parts is increased during the application and for
some time thereafter. Any local application with a vacuum electrode is
an effective antiseptic, largely on account of the ozone developed.
Local applications produce the desired result at
the treated part quickly. They also benefit to a remarkable degree the
entire system. The body is penetrated by radiant atomized electricity,
restoring energy and vitality to the entire system.
Second General applications. Taken as electrification
treatment for the effect on the general condition. The entire body is saturated
with electrical energy by simply holding the electrode in the hand. This
produces a sedative or quieting effect.
Violet Ray High Frequency Currents have the tendency
to establish a normal equilibrium of the entire nervous system. Arterial
tension during a general treatment usually increases slightly while it
falls a short time afterward. General treatments are recommended in all
nervous disorders and diseases.
Third Indirect applications. Combines local
and general treatments and requires two people. The party to be treated
holds the instrument with the attached electrode. A second party then may
draw with either hand, finger-tips, or another electrode, the high frequency
current to the desired spot of the patient's body.
LOCAL TREATMENTS
One of the greatest benefit of the Violet Ray. is
the fact that it can be used with such excellent results in local conditions.
When the Master Violet Ray is applied to any part of the body, it gives
to a certain extent a general treatment by stimulating the circulation.
In treating local conditions, these results are greatly increased by giving
a local treatment to the part affected. Suppose one is afflicted with rheumatic
pain in the shoulder, you apply the Violet Ray treatment to the painful
part. The result noted will be an immediate sensation of warmth. After
a slight treatment, you will note that the part treated has become slightly
reddened by the blood that is sent in response to stimulation secured from
the treatment.
These local treatments can be given to any part
of the body locally with very good results.
NEURITIS
Neuritis, as commonly understood, is rheumatism of
the nerves. In the treatment of this condition, the Violet Ray is unexcelled.
Not only does the Violet Ray apply health but a permanent relief is secured
by relieving the inflammation and removing the cause of the ailment.
RHEUMATISMLUMBAGO
By causing the rich red health-laden blood to flow
to the affected part and concentrated oxygen driven directly into the tissues,
the inflammation is usually quickly overcome and a normal condition is
secured.
OZONE TREATMENTS
The Master Ozone Generator, shown on Page 19 may
he used with any Master machine. This generator in connection with our
outfits give the most satisfactory method of Ozone treatment known to science.
A most essential form of treatment for asthma, bay
fever, and all lung, throat and nose cases.
WHY MASTER VIOLET RAYS EXCEL
Master Violet Ray machines have many features that
make them superior to other Violet Ray machines produced. Due to their
superior type of construction, which permits of the use of parts of ample
size, they will operate continuously for a much longer period without overheating
than any portable machine heretofore offered.
The Condensors are large and of over-capacity in
order to prevent breakdowns. The Coils are all wound over-capacity to prevent
over-heating in continuous and hard usage. The insulation of the coils
used is equal to that of very expensive machines.
The range of adjustment is ideal and suitable for
all treatments.
All Cords are sparkless and there is no possible
danger of shocks. The machines are instruments of marvelous simplicity
and efficiency that operate on any alternating or direct current without
adjustment, and are fool proof in construction.
They are economical in operation. The power consumed
is less than that used by the ordinary electric light.
The Master reputation has been built by supplying
the most superior product on the market. Extreme care in the selection
of material, rigid inspection, skilled craftsmanship, and years of experience
make Master Violet Ray Instruments stand out in a class by themselves.
SPECIAL FEATURES FOUND ONLY IN THE MASTER VIOLET RAY INSTRUMENTS
A very important feature of all Master Violet Ray
machines is the special patented Master Electrode socket terminal which
is a part of the resonator coil. Should the electrode break, the coil can
simply be unscrewed from the hard rubber housing and the electrode end
easily removed by inserting a screw driver or knife in the insertion, as
shown in illustration.
In the past, where the electrode has broken, it
has been necessary for practically all users to take these to an electric
shop or repair man to have the electrode end removed. This annoyance is
altogether eliminated, both to the user and the dealer, by the patented
Master Electrode Terminal socket which is found only on Master Violet Ray
machines.

MASTER OZONE GENERATOR No. 28
The Ozone Generator is a special applicator designed
for direct medication in nasal, throat, bronchial and lung effections.
It generates enormous quantities of ozone. Ozone is a faint blue
glas compound of oxygen and is formed by the passage of an electrical discharge
through air. Outdoors, we get ozone after a thunder storm and indoors
the same effect can be produced mechanically with Violet Rays.
Ozone treatments are very beneficial and excellent
results are secured in all diseases of the Respiratory organs. Influenza,
Catarrh, Bronchitis, Asthma, Hay Fever, etc., quickly show marked
improvement from its use.
The ozone permeates every cell, destroying germ life, and soothes
the inflamed tissues.
DIRECTIONS FOR OPERATING OZONE GENERATOR
The Generator is pushed into the instrument handle, after filling the inhalant
chamber one-fifth with inhalant solution, the current is turned on.
The left hand is then put around the ozone chamber while the other hand
actuates the pressure bulb at convenience. The nostrils are placed
over or tight against the nose-piece, and the ozone is forced down through
the nose into the lungs by pressing the bulb. The inhaling of the
ozone should be deep and the air completely exhaled before taking another
breath. Inhalation may also be made through the mouth by changing
the nose-piece for the mouth-piece.
The inhalant solution contained in the upper chamber
of the generator washes the ozone as it bubbles through it, allowing particles
of it to be carried along in the form of vapor. This inhalant solution
is a splendid combination of essential oils which have a soothing effect
upon the membranes and assist in healing.
The complete outfit consists of the Generator, a
nose-piece, a mouth-piece, pressure bulb, inhalant solution.
Complete with all attachments as shown. $18.00.
MASTER ELECTRODES OR APPLICATORS
Vacuum Glass Electrodes for High Frequency Violet
Ray Application are made in two types. Plain, or non-insulated, and
insulated. Insulated electrodes are used for Orificial treatments
mostly, as they deliver a greater quantity of current at the desired locality.
Master electrodes are made of the best grade of
special glass, which will stand heavy usage without signs of deterioration.
The vacuum in Master electrodes is perfect. The end of the electrodes
are protected by metal caps, which insure greater life. All electrodes

CARE OF ELECTRODES
Keep the electrodes clean. Washing with warm
water and soap is sufficient. Electrodes will stand heat and can
be boiled in water.
MASTER NEON HIGH FREQUENCY ELECTRODES
Neon Red Ray Electrode consists of an Electrode which
has been highly evacuated and filled to a definite pressure with a very
rare gas called Neon. The process of securing Neon is very complicated
and expensive, therefore, commercial price of Neon is extremely high.
Neon has two salient properties, the faculty of readily conducting electric
current and emanating an orange red light which has proven itself to possess
decided healing properties. This light can be only secured through
the use of Neon gas. When these properties are used in High Frequency
Electrodes a great increased efficiency is noticeable in the treatment
of certain conditions. The most sensitive parts may be treated with
Neon Electrodes without irritation and they are extremely beneficial to
any pustulous or inflamed condition.
Neon electrodes may be used with any Master Violet
Ray machine.
NEON ELECTRODE PRICES
All regular Violet Ray Electrodes listed at $1.00
can be supplied at $3.00 each. All regular Violet Ray Electrodes
listed at $1.50 and $2.00 can be supplied in Neon Electrodes at $4.00 each.
UNBREAKABLE ELECTRODES
This electrode is made of a special composition supplied
in the Surface Electrodes only. These electrodes not being made of
glass are unbreakable.
Price .......... $3.50
NOTE
The electrodes will lose their exhaustion in time
and wear out much on the order of an electric light bulb. When difficulty
arises with the machine it is usually with the electrode. Try another
electrode before blaming the machine. Master aViolet Ray seldom give
the user trouble and will last indefinitely. Nothing is to be oiled

The Spinal Cord is contained in the Backbone or Spinal
Column. The Spinal Cord is an extension of the brain. The nerves
branch out from the spinal cord and go to all parts and organs of the body.

Pain or tenderness at any point along the spine
signifies involvement of that corresponding organ. Both the organ
and the spine should be treated.
By Violet Ray treatments these Spinal Nerve Centers
can be stimulated to cause the parts and organs which are controlled by
them to respond.
High frequency application to the correct spinal
region will restore an organ which has lost its natural tone or shows impaired
activity. The normal state of the organ or part will be regained so that
its duty can be properly carried out.
MASTER VIOLET RAY TREATMENTS
The following are suggestions. In most instances
the individual will develop their own technique in their own case.
Violet Ray treatments need not be of long duration.
Short treatments at frequent intervals are very effective. Always start
with the weakest current possible. The initial discharge which occurs when
you bring the electrode to the body in making contact should be avoided.
Make contact with electrode quickly when beginning and finishing treatment.
If metal object like hairpins, corset steels, chains, etc., cannot be avoided
in the treatments they should be removed.
USE YOUR MASTER OUTFIT AS A FIRST AID
There is no quackery or uncertainty about the Violet-Ray
High-Frequency Current. It is a thorough cell massage, and a wonderful
stimulant, and while it is by no means put forward as a cure-all, yet it
is of the utmost aid in restoring to normal the physical condition impaired
from almost any cause. The results obtained are universally beneficial
and can never in any instance be harmful.
MASTER VIOLET RAY TREATMENTS
The following are suggestions for the treatment
of disease taken from cases where physicians or clinics have obtained excellent
results. Not all cases will be cured through High-Frequency alone, but
in every case it is a valuable adjunct to other treatment; in fact, many
cases have been greatly benefitted where medical treatment has failed.
Alopecia or Falling Hair Use Comb electrode No. 3. Use a mild
current at first, which can be increased with treatments. Pass the comb
back and forth over the entire scalp for about five minutes every day.
This same treatment can be used for gray hair in restoring it to natural
color. Use same treatment for baldness. Do not use the Violet-Ray on the
hair immediately after applying any preparation containing more than forty
percent of alcohol.
Acne: Pimples Treat the entire surface for about seven minutes
with the Surface electrode No. 1. If the skin is damp, either apply talcum
powder, or treat through handkerchief or other clean cloth. Use a medium
