TEXT

  1. EC: We have the body, [3760], here. In the physical forces we find there are SPECIFIC conditions as are causing disorders in the body. While these in the present do not disturb the activities of the body so much, are they allowed to remain there must COME the time when they would prove very detrimental to the well being and the better physical functioning of the body. While the correcting of same in the present will require some persistence, some patience, yet for the better well-BEING these corrected will save suffering, disappointment, and discouragement to the body later on.
  2. These, then, are the conditions as we find them with this body, [3760].
  3. In the structural portions of the body there are hindrances to the better physical functioning. These are from impingements as have gradually grown to a lesion in the lower portion of the coccyx, and in the lower sacral region. These impingements and the LESION there causes an impoverishment to the locomotary centers, and prevent their proper nutriment - hence the full activity of same, and the one limb will be found to be shorter than the other.
  4. In the effects this creates or produces, other than that of just hindrances in the perfect locomotion, the impoverishment of a portion must necessarily tend to make a greater strain upon the blood supply than would be were all portions of axis and ganglia functioning in their proper way and manner. With this impoverishment to a portion of the system, this tends to leave sediments, dregs, or drosses in the eliminations. Hence the circulation in the exterior and anterior become affected in same. There is considerable variation in the heart's pulsation, though not an organic disorder - but rather a SYMPATHETIC, and the body will find - unless corrections are made - these aggravations must continue to produce more and more irritation to the general make-up of the nervous system, and be more active in the imaginative or SYMPATHETIC system than in the other portions; yet their reactions must necessarily come to the cerebro-spinal system. Digestion becomes involved at times under these stresses, though not so often seen in the present save by that characterizing by a specific variety, or that of headache that occurs at times - SEEMINGLY disturbing the sympathetic system, or the eyes and nasal portions, more than other portions of the body. From the natural form of the pressure as indicated in the sacral and coccyx regions, with the lower lumbar involved, makes or produces a strain on the axis opposite, or that of the brachial axis. This makes for the fullness as occurs in the lymph circulation, and burses about the throat and the nasal cavities. These, as seen, are PURELY - in the present STATE - reflex conditions, and the applications only to this PORTION of system must necessarily transfer same to some OTHER portion of the body, though these were relieved. These will be AIDED, however, by the use of properties that will tend to act as an antiseptic to those tendencies in nasal, soft tissue in face, in throat, by the use of ANY of those properties in that direction, so they are ALKALIN in their reaction. Dobell's salts, or those of a spray with an alternation between Glyco and Listerine would be well. Necessarily these should both be reduced to about half the strength when used as a spray, or a gargle. These may be used ALTERNATELY, and would be BETTER used in that manner. Let the water that is mixed with same be tepid, so there is not TOO much of a change in the temperature or reaction in system.
  5. For those conditions first in the lumbar and sacral region, we will find that with those of the hydrotherapy treatments - that is, RELAXING the body thoroughly in the bath, or in or with hot packs, or salts packs or baths, before the manipulations are given, these would prove more effective. These we would take as periods of adjustments and treatments, taking the first period for at least two to three weeks - about three times each week - then REST for a week or ten days, then the next period for a week to ten days, or three to four TREATMENTS then rest another TWO weeks - see?
  6. With these precautions, and being persistent - because the conditions are improved, because colds do not occur so often, not so much disturbance in the locomotion - KEEP UP the treatments until there is perfect coordination, and the REMOVAL of those pressures in the lumbar and the sacral area, ESPECIALLY that in the coccyx area; also remove pressures in the brachial, or upper dorsal and cervicals, as these are sympathetic conditions.
  7. Ready for questions - [3760].
  8. We are through with this reading.

BACKGROUND

  1. 9/08/31 Aunt [1742]'s letter: "He has had a pain in his right leg (I think that is the correct one) for about 2 years, seemingly in the sciatic nerve. He seems to limp a little also. He had a cold of late and he coughs slightly all along. But, of course, he will write about it himself." [She indicated she was having the reading for his birthday, he being 29 on Oct. 17th.]
  2. 9/09/31 [3760]'s letter to EC:
    Mr. Edgar Cayce, Virginia Beach, Virginia
    Dear Mr. Cayce,
    My aunt, Miss [1742] has told me about your work and I find it highly interesting.
    I have been troubled for the past two years with an ailment that doesn't seem to respond to treatment and she suggested that I shall write you for a physical reading. Enclosed you will find her check to cover the cost of the reading.
    Sincerely yours, [3760]

REPORTS

  1. 9/18/31 EC's letter to [3760]:
    My dear Mr. [3760]
    I am enclosing the information gotten at the appointed time. I certainly hope you will be able to apply this and gain that which you desire.
    If I may offer this as a suggestion for the manipulations, I would suggest that you see Dr. Ted Berger, 77 Park Avenue, New York City. Show him the reading. I believe his experience with the information will enable him to offer you advice that will be the very best at this time. Or, if you want to include all the treatments through the hydrotherapy room, you might see H. J. Reilly, of The Reilly Service, 1908 Broadway (63-64 Sts.) had quite a number of patients he has treated according to our information.
    Be sure and let us hear from you as to how you progress, and if we can be of service in any way please know that is our greatest wish - to be of service.
    With all good wishes, I am
    Sincerely, EC:GD
  2. 9/23/31 Aunt [1742]'s letter to EC:
    Dear Mr. Cayce,
    [3760], my nephew, who received the "Reading", came to me, for lunch - and showed it to me. It was remarkably interesting as I had no idea that you go into such technical details. It coincided entirely with Dr. Kellogg's idea of the blood-building process, - thru hot and cold applications. Also, - the "time-limit" is as he prescribes.
    That is, - the best effect is brought forth, - within a certain time, - and then the body must do the rest of the work by itself, - for a time. Then a new start, - and again a rest. I "believe" the boy harmed himself, - by CONTINUOUS osteopathic treatments.
    I explained, the difference, - to him and I am sure that he will apply the directions received. If he finds it expensive, - I'll try to assist - a bit.
  3. 10/13/31 Mr. [3760] referred Miss [5720] for a Physical Reading.
