This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 26th day of August, 1940, in accordance with request made by the self - Mrs. [2330], new Associate Member of the Ass'n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc., recommended by her sister-in-law, Mrs. [1523].

Present: Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. [2330] and [1523].

TEXT

1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief of this body. You will answer the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [2330].
3. As we find, in many respects the general physical forces of this body are very good.
4. There are, however, those disturbances that unless corrected will produce a strain upon the general nervous system, that may produce growths that would necessitate operative measures; while in the present these as we find may be removed without the necessity of operative forces and be corrective in measures and ways as to be much more satisfactory.
5. These are the conditions, then, as we find them with this body, [2330] we are speaking of, present in this room:
6. First, in the blood supply, - this we find very good. The reactions in most of the activities of blood producing, blood balance, the hemoglobin, the metabolism and the katabolism, are very good.
7. In the nervous system we find the sources of much of the disturbance, though the general conditions are as pressures upon the nervous system; thus causing at the PERIODS some very disturbing or distressing conditions.
8. As we find, there have been adhesions and lesions through the pelvic organs that cause the conditions there; or that cause the womb itself to be in such a position as to lack the ability of proper drainage. Then the adherence to a portion of the vagina walls causes the disturbances from which we may expect greater disturbance unless these conditions are removed.
9. These cause those reactions across the small of the back at times, when the body is tired or when it walks a great deal or stands on the feet or gets overheated; first the body gets overly irritated, and then periods of the greater disturbance arise.
10. Of course, these throw into the system at the time those energies that find reflex action through the lower limbs, through the sacral area, and the ileac plexus.
11. All of these are as results of the conditions indicated, and are thus of a specific or local nature.
12. Functioning of the organs we find at times involved in same, - as some nausea, some overactivity of the kidneys, and at other times the lack of proper eliminations - by the general disturbance. Yet these as we find would adjust themselves with the corrections of the disturbances existing there.
13. In the reflexes from these, we find that the greater disturbance would be upon the sensory forces; thus a reflex to the eyes, and eventually to the hearing, - though the correcting of the specific disturbance in the present should eliminate all of these and make for the normal conditions for the body.
14. As we find, then, in going about to make the corrections:
15. First, we would begin with specific ADJUSTMENTS - osteopathically made - in the lumbar, the sacral and the coccyx area; giving especial reference to the ileac plexus.
16. We would make these twice a week for the first six such adjustments, and with some two or three of a GENERAL nature; for it is necessary to coordinate other centers along the cerebrospinal system, - as the 9th dorsal, the brachial centers, and throughout the cervical - THESE should be coordinated.
17. And we would suggest Irvin for these treatments.
18. Then, AFTER there have been some six adjustments (not before), we would begin using Atomidine Douches at least twice a week - during the period of the NEXT three or four or five osteopathic adjustments. Use a teaspoonful of Atomidine to a quart and a half of water, body-temperature, for such douches.
19. Also begin about the same time and use, not more than once a week, the Violet Ray (Hand Machine) Vaginal Applicator, - but NOT close to the menstrual periods, for this would produce greater irritation. Do not use it too long. Two and a half to three minutes is sufficient. DO NOT use it BEFORE the osteopathic adjustments are made, but AFTERWARD - the next day afterward; once each week, you see.
20. The douches would be used AFTER the osteopathic treatments - the next day afterward, you see; and AFTER the Violet Ray, in order to remove any of the activities produced by this high vibration.
21. Doing these, with the general precautions, we should make for normal forces for this body.
22. Ready for questions.
23. (Q) What is the condition of the ovary?
    (A) Only sympathetic conditions causing disturbances to the ovary, from the adherence of the womb to the side of the vagina wall; which causes a stretching, especially at the time of the activity of the ovary.
24. (Q) What can be done to normalize weight?
    (A) This is very good, if it would be kept in its present condition! This is very well, - but keep away from sugars and from white breads.
25. (Q) Please give the body any further mental or spiritual advice which will be helpful.
    (A) Just keep the mental attitudes in that way as has been and is the policy of the body-mind. Keep in the constructive thinking. These - the attitudes - are well; just keep them in practice.
26. We are through for the present.

REPORTS

1. Remarks after reading [2330-1]: Dr. Corpening - Also her doctor in ..., W. Va. - says the uterus is thickening or causing growths, which will need to be removed by operation. She has excess menstrual flow, or flowing which lasts sometimes two weeks; all nervous and upset at times.
2. 8/28/40 Letter from Dr. C. W. Irvin: "...Mrs. [2330] came to me on Monday. In checking your reading, I find that it coincides with mine very closely. I do find an endometritis which seems to me to be of some duration, and I am inclined to believe the underlying cause is adhesions which have pulled the uterus forward and to the left, thus preventing proper drainage to this organ.
   "I feel sure that this patient will improve under proper corrective treatment.
   "Thanking you most kindly for referring Mrs. [2330] to me, and assuring you of my most hearty cooperation, I am,"
   Sincerely yours, [signed] C. W. Irvin, D.O.
3. 11/11/40 Letter from Dr. C. W. Irvin: "...Mrs. [2330] was greatly helped and I have asked her to go back to you for a check-up..."
4. 1/27/41 See 2330-2.
