CHAP. XXIV. Of the third manner of restoring a Shoulder.
SOme one who is of a competent height and strength shall put the sharpe part of the toppe of his shoulder under the Patients arme-pit, and also at the same time shall somewhat violently draw his arme towards his owne breast, so that the Patients whole bodie may (as it were) hang thereby. In the meane time another, for the greater impression, shall lay his weight on the luxated shoulder, shaking it with his whole bodie. Thus the shoulder, drawne downe-wards by the one which stands under the arme-hole, and moved and shaken by the other, who hangs upon it, may bee restored into its seat, by the helpe of the Surgeon concurring therewith, and with his hand governing these violent motions, as the following figure shews.
