This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Virginia, this 4th day of July, 1934, in accordance with request made by the son - Mr. [478], Active Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. Mildred Davis, Mr. [478] and wife - with his brother and wife. Also L. B. Cayce.]

Time of Reading 11:10 to 11:25 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Virginia. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [604].

2. Now, as we find, there are material conditions that are disturbing the better physical functioning of the body. These are rather in a general disturbance of the whole nervous system as a shock, with specifics that are causing and will cause specific conditions in the functioning of organs unless corrected.

3. As we find, there is a subluxation produced by or through a shock (recent) in the 3rd and 4th dorsal, from the shoulder impaction, causing the ligaments and tendons on those portions to be in a state of distress internally.

4. This disturbing, then, the internal circulation as to the equilibrium of the body, and from the specific nature of same making for dizziness, headache, nausea, and the activities that make for the general tenure of temperature in the body.

5. Unless these pressures are removed and an equilibrium brought, their pressure upon the organs of the digestion as related to the activity of the heart and its circulation to the head and to the organs of the body itself would bring about more detrimental conditions.

6. We would, then, make the corrections that will be necessary, specifically in the upper dorsal area, combining or aligning same with those through the cervical area and in the hip and the lower portion these only need that the muscular forces be brought more to normalcy by perfecting of the circulation.

7. So, we would make the corrections in the dorsal, in the cervical, and - of course - the general massage in the lumbar and sacral, osteopathically.

8. We would give internally Bromidia in very small doses to overcome the nausea and to make for the allaying of this tendency for the drumming or thumping in the system, that produces the headaches and the reaction to the sensory system. It would be given for the first two or three days about two and a half to four hours apart; half to a teaspoonful in water.

9. Ready for questions.

10. (Q) What is the cause of my back trouble which has existed for years? (A) The heaviness from the activities in the digestive system, which have been thrown out of alignment in this particular condition, you see.

This will be materially aided with the general massage and general treatment WITH the corrections.

11. (Q) What can be done to eliminate the leg swelling and soreness which has been troubling me for several years? (A) As indicated, with the corrections in the lumbar and sacral area the circulation will be more perfected and the coordination between the arterial and the venous circulation will be better established, and overcome this tendency for the lymph to produce the swelling in ankle and in limb.

12. (Q) What about the head condition and blood pressure? (A) This will be overcome through the correction of the dorsal area.

13. (Q) Will the treatment as suggested be too severe for her in the condition at the present time? (A) Will not be too severe for her, because it would be gently done, you see. But unless these treatments or corrections ARE made, the general condition - with that which has existed - will make for very serious conditions; for we are creating more and more an unbalance in the heart’s activity.

14. (Q) How many treatments would you suggest, and will she be normal? (A) The treatments should be often; that is, every day for at least six to eight, then once to twice a week until about sixteen more are taken. This should bring to near normal the conditions that have been not acute, but as normal to the activities of the body itself, you see, [604].

15. (Q) Any spiritual advice? (A) We would keep much in that same attitude that is maintained by the body in its relationships to the mental, the spiritual activities of all, knowing that then those things that make for spiritual growth must be the activity of the mental forces as related to self and those about self.

Keep the way open for those things that may come to thee in ALL thine experiences.

16. We are through.

R2. 12/5/34 Mrs. [604]‘s letter:

Mr. Edgar Cayce, Virginia Beach

Dear Mr. Cayce

The latter part of June I had a very bad fall. Being seventy years of age, & very heavy the results were rather serious, which caused me to be confined to my bed for quite some time. Our family physician was called in who prescribed but gave me no relief whatever. On the other hand, I was suffering more each day as the time went on. I was suffering a great deal of pain and unable to retain anything, either food or water. It was suggested I get a physical reading from you, which I readily consented to. This reading was obtained the morn of July 4th 1934, which suggested a series of osteopathic treatments & prescription to relieve headache & nausea. After the second dose of the prescription on July 4th the nausea was completely gone and my headache relieved. Dr. Richardson was called in the same eve. & gave me my first treatment which resulted in my sleeping all night, the first nights I had had in four days. The prescription was only continued the following day and then discarded entirely, as I was able to eat & drink at regular intervals. Dr. Richardson treated me six times in my home, after which I was able to get up & go to his office where I continued the required number of treatments.

I do not wish to convey the impression that I am entirely normal physically, as it can hardly be expected of any one, who has always been blessed with good health up to the evening part of life.

I am most grateful & words can not express my very deepest appreciation, for the help I have received through you.

Wishing you every blessing Gratefully Yours … St. Mrs. [604]

R3. 1/9/35 Dr. M. L. Richardson’s letter:

Mr. Hugh Lynn Cayce, Virginia Beach, Va.

My dear Mr. Cayce:

Regarding the case of Mrs. [604] injured in a fall last June:

There was much traumatic injury of soft tissue with fixation of the spine in the region complained of. After the inflammation and - swelling of the soft tissues was reduced, motion was restored in the spinal segments with complete relief of all symptoms Mrs. [604] informed me. From my view point however the case required a few more treatments, as a matter of fact she did not get the number of treatments called for in the reading. I hope however the good results continue.

Sincerely, [signed] M. L. Richardson
