This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Virginia, this 9th day of July, 1934, in accordance with request made by the mother - Mrs. […], Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. [561] and mother, Mildred Davis and L. B. Cayce.]

Time of Reading 10:50 to 11:05 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Virginia. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [561]; this we have had before.

2. As we find, conditions are greatly improved from that as we have had here before.

3. In those areas where there has been the indication of the lesions and adhesions, these have been broken up; while there are still in the lacteal area and in the caecum indications of what may be called stringy nature, or the tendons and tendencies still show that they EXISTED.

4. Hence we will find that while the condition is eliminated that caused the distresses, it would be well to keep the food values for the intestinal system in the form of the olive oil, and occasionally - once a month or once in six weeks - have a thorough massage following an oil pack, that this condition may be ENTIRELY removed from the system, making for the proper connections and associations of the nerve ends through the portions of the body that have been indicated.

5. Be mindful that there are not too much of the acid forces taken in system until the body is thoroughly adjusted to the new conditions in the body [that is, in the diet not eating quantities of meats, sugars and starches or condiments. GD].

6. Normal activities, much outdoor activity as possible under the circumstances, all will make for a NORMALCY and a development in the body, [561], of a normal condition in every way and manner.

7. Ready for questions.

8. (Q) The massage is to come after just one oil pack, and should it be osteopathic or just by a masseur? (A) It would be better of the general osteopathic manipulation. The packs would be from one month to six weeks apart, you see, and the treatments or massage would be following same; that is, if the oil pack is taken today or tonight, then tomorrow would be the massage.

9. (Q) Just one oil pack instead of six, about three hours? (A) Just one oil pack, about three hours; but be sufficient that it is absorbed into the system. Then the next day the general thorough massage. For, THIS is the activity:

Nerve ENDS in the ganglia in the emunctory and lymph circulation are “feeling out”, as it were, their ends through the tissue that HAS been IN-active, you see. Hence the softening of tissue, the breaking up of tendencies for adherence and for the stricture that occurs - or the adhering of portions, and the massage that the circulation and nerve impulse throughout the system is carried through such portions, PREVENTS such conditions reoccurring and helps the body to adjust itself to normalcy.

Do that, and we will find we will not have a reoccurrence of the condition, unless something else arises other than pointed out in the system at present.

10. (Q) The olive oil is to be kept up daily? (A) Be kept up daily. Just what the body assimilates, you see.

11. (Q) Will it be alright, then, for the body to go over to the Boys Camp? (A) Be alright to go over at the Boys Camp.

12. (Q) Will it be necessary to have a check reading later on? (A) Only as precautionary measures, unless something else arises, would be very well.

Follow these, as we find, and we will bring for this body normalcy; normal developments, normal activities throughout the body.

13. We are through with this reading.

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 7/9/34 EC’s letter to Miss [605]: “Today a lady came in and reported on her 16 year old boy who had a reading about two months ago; she has followed the reading for him to the letter, and he hasn’t had a single one of the spells. This is a case that the doctors had given up entirely; called it epilepsy. The medical profession here in Norfolk (and we have as good doctors as you have in all of Ky.) simply marvel at it and say, ‘Well, I don’t know why we didn’t think of it before.’”

R2. 7/9/34 GD’s note: The boy, [561], was delighted that the reading said he could go to camp. He was feeling and looking fine. He said the tightening in his side has completely disappeared.

R3. 7/20/34 Dr. Vincent Hilles Ober’s ltr.:

Dear Sir:

I am writing to thank you for your kind words of compliment and for referring to me for treatment [561] son of Mr. & Mrs. […] of this city.

My dear Dr. Ober:-

Yours of the 20th has been received. I appreciate very much your letter and your cooperation in the [561] case.

I assure you it will be a pleasure to refer individuals to you whom the readings indicate require your special method of treatment.

As the treatments progress, I would appreciate your letting us have a report on the [561] case. We have quite a number of physicians in the osteopathic school, as well as in the homeopathic and alopathic, that favor us with such reports. These, of course, are for our files and not for publication.

Appreciating your cooperation, and trusting that we may - together - be of a service to our fellow man, I am
