### Omit _for_ The problem is that _modulate_ means that something _modulates_ something else. Your sentence reads as if you want to say that the spiritual treatment might change the patient's already healthy body and mind, depending on the mental state of the patient. Therefore you can just use _modulate_ without any other word being necessary. > his work is a spiritual treatment that in turn might modulate [for] the patient’s healthy body and mind You wouldn't normally use _modulate_ together with _for_. In your example it sounds wrong and is difficult to read.
