This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his office, 115 West 35th Street, Virginia Beach, Va., this 16th day of April, 1929, in accordance with request made by self - Mr. [5442], via Mr. David E. Kahn and Mr. [5516].

Present: Edgar Cayce; Mrs. Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno.

TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here - [5442]. Now, we find there are those conditions as cause distress with the physical forces of the body. While in some respects the body is very good, yet we find there have been those conditions existent with the physical functioning wherein the general forces have become involved through the lack of the proper stimulus from the nerve supplies in various portions of the system, until there has been builded that which, producing pressure, has brought about the present conditions. These, as we find, have existed for times back, and are subluxations as exist in the coccyx and the lower lumbar region. Hence the pressure as gradually builded by the misdirected energy of the nerve forces, finally reached that place where the pressure on the lower end of the sympathetic plexus, in the 4th lumbar plexus, has affected that of the system as related to that especially of the lymphatic circulation. Hence the condition as exists in the disturbance of the equilibrium in the eliminating forces as in this direction, as well as those that have caused the pressure in the plexus that disturbs the locomotion, as in reference to the sciatic forces for the body.
2. In these varied ways, then, do we find the distresses as are produced for this body, [5442] we are speaking of.
3. THE BLOOD SUPPLY becoming involved through the variation as produced through the lymphatic circulation, and especially that plexus as passes through the jejunum and the plexus that causes this elimination to be disturbed is that directly associated with the ganglion about the 4th lumbar region.
4. In meeting, then, the needs of the conditions for this body, more than one condition must be met. That as is produced in same by the reaction of the lymphatic circulation, and that as causes or produces the general disturbance in the body. These, in the lymphatic circulation, affecting various portions of the body, as is seen throughout that of the sensory system.
5. The correcting of the conditions in the coccyx and lumbar region will remove the pressure, and the general condition will be improved.
6. While those conditions as have been created by that long remaining condition in the body will be met through the change of the vibratory forces as will be set in system for the correction of the condition.
7. Then, the body should retire to some place where these applications may be made in the way and manner as is outlined here:
8. First, there should be applied those of the antiphlogistian nature over the sacral and lumbar region. This applied for at least three to five days, until there is thorough relaxation through this region. Then corrections may be made osteopathically, or chiropractically, in this region - so that there is proper alignment and proper adjustment in the cerebro-spinal region.
9. Then, we would begin with these conditions as are created in the lymphatic circulation, AFTER the 8th or 10th day of treatments, giving these properties as will create a different vibration for the body.
10. First prepare, as the carrier for the properties to be taken, that of 8 ounces of distilled water, with 4 ounces of wild cherry bark. Reducing same by simmering, not boiling, to 1/2 the quantity. Then add:

    Simple Syrup......................2 ounces,
Tincture of Stillingia..........1/2 ounce,
Syrup of Ipecac.................1/4 ounce,
10% Solution Iodide Potassium....40 minims,
10% solution Bromide Potassium...20 minims,
Elixir Calisaya.................1/4 ounce.

    Shake solution well together before the dose is taken. The dose should be half a teaspoonful every three hours until there is a decided change in the eliminations as is effected through the capillary or lymphatic circulation.
11. Then we would begin with those of the proper ELIMINANTS of the alkalin nature to carry the refuse entirely from the system, continuing with the manipulations and the applications of that of the ultra Violet Ray after these conditions have been set aright in system, until we find near the normal forces for this body of [5442]. Do that. We are through for the present.
