[Edgar Cayce; Mrs. Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno.]

Time of Reading 4:40 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Ky.

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 the treatment for the cure and relief of this body.

2. EC: Yes, we have the body here.

3. Now, we find that the body has, in a manner, overtaxed itself, and when the body should have been resting the body has been laboring, and in the general debilitation that has been brought about by this condition there was set up specific conditions (and some that may become serious, unless corrected).

4. While there is little functioning trouble, in the sense of the organic conditions, yet the organic organs IN functioning bring the distresses; for the replenishing to the system has been lax. Hence we find, were the organs supplied with that vibration necessary that would give the proper incentives in functioning, the organs would reproduce those conditions necessary to keep an equilibrium or balance throughout the system. As conditions exist, we find an impoverished and impaired circulation. That in itself produces bad color, bad reaction in elimination. The conditions brought about by poor elimination leaves sediments in the system. Hence the disturbances as are created in various portions of the tissue, and in the ligament at times, and the general debilitation as follows from same. Naturally, with an overtaxed condition, we find the body very nervous, in that while there are times when the body may control self, there are others when the irritation to the nerve system is so intense as to be upsetting, mentally and physically, to the body.

5. The digestion suffers under this nerve strain, as it does from poor blood supply and poor circulation.

6. The organs themselves show the lack of stimulation, rather than of defunct conditions within self, or the lack of ability to function nominally from the nerve supply and from the blood supply.

7. Then, to bring about the better condition for this body, we would first give the body should rest from the labors, soon - for four to six (4 to 6) weeks.

8. While such is being done, stimulate, osteopathically, the whole nerve system, by the gentle massage and adjustments along the whole cerebro-spinal system. Two (2) such adjustments each week would be sufficient, and the body should either have sun baths at such rest periods, or those of the Ultra Violet Ray applied after such treatments. The better would be sun, salt, and sand, and these - with gentle massage at or after such sand, sun and salt water baths - would bring the rejuvenation to the nerves, and build up the blood supply.

9. The rejuvenation in blood will be stimulated also by the use, or the wearing of the Double X Radium Appliance. This will increase the red blood supply, and with the diet, the air, the change, the manipulation, will - within the four to six (4 to 6) weeks - build the body, [71], back to near normal.

10. Do that.

11. Wear the pad over the solar plexus center, for the radiation there will give the greater strength to the body. Wear only in the daytime, see? and not when taking sun baths, sand baths, or treatments.

12. Do as given, and we will bring the normal forces for this body.

13. We are through for the present.
