This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at the office of the Association, Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 28th day of October, 1942, in accordance with request made by the self - Mrs. [2833], new Associate Member of the Ass'n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc., recommended by Dr. [2772].

Present: Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. Mrs. [2833] and friend [...].

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, [2833].
3. Now, as we find, while conditions are very good in many respects, there are disturbances of such natures that warnings should be given regarding the tendencies which exist. And with the change of such inclinations or tendencies, we may find the relief from some of those disturbances that at times bring the anxieties to this body.
4. These arise, we find, from some glandular disturbances indicated in the reactions upon the sympathetic nervous system at times.
5. Then, these are the conditions as we find them with this body, [2833] we are speaking of, present in this room:
6. First, in the blood supply, - while reactions may be found to be negative in most of the tests, - there ARE the tendencies for a condition indicated in the plasm of the glandular force that prevents the formations of better eliminations.
7. Thus some toxic forces that arise give those reactions in the nerves and tendons of the body, from the lack of the proper balance in the chemical forces in the body functionings. It arises from the inability of the glandular system in producing same through the activity of organs, - though no organic disturbances are existent.
8. These indicate also a disturbance for the circulation through portions of the body, from the kidneys and liver and the pelvic organs of the body.
9. In the nerve forces, - here we find a cause, as well as the effects in the system; producing, because of those pressures upon the sympathetic system, those conditions in face, head and the nerve forces in the body reactions in same.
10. These disturbances become aggravated at times through sympathetic relationships to activities in the body. These are those incoordinations between the sympathetic and cerebrospinal, and are purely because of the toxic conditions left in body as pressures in portions of the body-forces themselves, along the areas where the cerebrospinal and sympathetic coordinate in areas in the spinal system. Also the effect upon the locomotory centers is seen in the tendencies for this crystallization in tendons and muscular forces in the body.
11. As to the functioning of the organs themselves, - here we find rather sympathetic conditions than organic. And these are reflexed, or are reflex activities in the organs. And with the removal of the pressures that exist, as well as a creating of a better balance in the chemical forces, there should be brought to the activity of the organs themselves the better responses and a removal of those conditions which cause the reflexes in the activity of the organs of the heart, the liver, the kidneys, and the pelvic reactions to the system.
12. In making applications for bringing the normal balance for this body, then:
13. We would begin having the Fume Baths, under the directions of such as Reilly's. Not a great deal of the dry heat would be used, but just sufficient to begin a respiratory or perspiratory reaction; not to overtax the respiratory system - and then give the fumes of Witchhazel. Follow this with a thorough rubdown with this combination of oils:
14. To 4 ounces of Usoline (or Nujol) add, in the order named:

    Peanut Oil............................2 ounces,
Olive Oil (American Olive Oil
will suffice)......................1 ounce,
Oil of Sassafras....................1/4 ounce,
Witchhazel............................1 ounce.

    These will separate as they are put together, but when ready to use shake together, pour into an open container, dip fingers in same and massage the body especially in those areas, particularly, where the emunctory and the lymph activity come close to the surface of the skin.
15. With these treatments should be applied the low electrical forces that will also aid in stimulating eliminating forces and purifying the body of those tendencies and accumulations through the body. We refer to the low electricity that comes from the hands of the one giving the latter portion of the treatment for the body, the electricity passing through the body giving the treatments, see? and this would be particularly along the spinal area and the head and neck.
16. Doing these, - those conditions that have been as accumulations, or tendencies in the body for the centralizing of the disturbances, will be eliminated; also these tendencies in the glandular force will be corrected, and we will bring the bettered conditions for this body, [2833].
17. Ready for questions.
18. (Q) What causes and what should be done for pains in the stomach?
    (A) These are purely reflex action. The massage and the purifying will clarify those tendencies for those disturbances of the unbalancing of chemical forces through digestive areas, also.
19. (Q) The rash?
    (A) This is the effect of the poor eliminations, and the attempt of the body to eradicate same through the respiratory system. That is why the activities of that combination suggested should be used to eradicate these disturbances from the body.
20. (Q) Frequent headaches?
    (A) These, as indicated, are from those pressures; as also that tendency for acidity that arises from the toxic forces through the body.
    In the matter of the diet, - keep away from highly seasoned foods. NO carbonated drinks of any character should be taken. While some soft drinks may be taken beneficially, as those that aid in clarifying the circulation between the liver and the kidneys, they should be made with plain water.
21. (Q) Is the body capable of having children?
    (A) The body is capable of having children. Purifying of the body, and correcting those disturbances through the body-forces as indicated, will allow those conditions to come about in a normal manner.
22. (Q) Any operation necessary?
    (A) No operation necessary, in the present anyway.
    Do these things as indicated, and we will find not only the better conditions in the mental attitude but the purifying and clarifying of those tendencies that exist, and will eliminate much that might cause greater distress later on.
23. We are through for the present.
