Introduction to the Cayce Readings on

Health and Healing
No matter what illness or ailment concerns us, certain basic principles about
health and healing are relevant. These are the premises upon which all of the Cayce
health information rests. For those who would like to make a more careful study of
these basic principles, the recommended Circulating File is entitled Principles of
Healing. Here, in essence, are the ideas found in that file. They may prove to be very
useful to your study of the specific ailment that requires healing for you.
The first fundamental idea about healing requires that we maintain a creative
balance between two principles:

1. All healing comes from the infinite - that is, from attunement and harmony with
our spiritual source. The infinite is just as accessible and available in the visible,
physical world as it is in the invisible realm.
2. At the same time, each person must take responsibility for his or her own
healing process. No one can simply sit back and wait passively for healing to
occur.

This second principle - the need for self-responsibility - can take many forms.
For example, healing requires attunement, and no one knows better than ourselves
exactly what has gotten us out of attunement. Often, if we look closely at our lives, we
can see (without needing a gifted medical clairvoyant such as Edgar Cayce) what's
causing our illness.
To illustrate self-responsibility further, the human body has a marvelous, innate
drive to heal itself, but we've got to do our part to help. A broken bone will naturally try
to mend; however, the fracture needs to be set properly for the healing to be complete
and effective. Cayce stresses the healing ability of the body:
Remember, the body does gradually renew itself constantly. Do not look upon
the conditions which have existed as not being able to be eradicated from the
system. . . Hold to that KNOWLEDGE - and don't think of it as just theory - that
the body CAN, the body DOES renew itself! 1548-3

Another important principle relates to energy medicine, a new field for which
Edgar Cayce was a pioneer. His readings consistently speak of the roles played by
vibrations or vibratory forces - right down to the level of individual atoms. According to
Cayce, there is a type of consciousness that exists in each atom. Although most of the
passages about the atomic physics of healing seem rather esoteric, it might be easier
to follow the analogy of the attunement of a stringed musical instrument. A violin or
piano that is out of tune makes sour, discordant music - symbolic of disease or illness.
Just as a skilled musician can bring the instrument back into attunement, we
experience healing when our vibrations - right down to the atomic level - are adjusted in
a correct manner. In essence, all healing is bringing the vibrations into harmony from
within.
Balance among body, mind, and spirit is another key to Cayce's philosophy of
healing. For healing to be complete and lasting, we must recognize and meet the
needs of each of these three levels. Virtually no illness or disease can be treated
successfully at only one of these three levels.

5
INCONTINENCE CIRCULATING FILE

What's more, Cayce affirms that the human body will naturally stay healthy - and
even rejuvenate itself - if a kind of internal balance can be maintained. “Dis-ease “
starts when one part of the body draws energy from another part. One portion of an
organism may become overcharged with the creative life force, while another portion
becomes undernourished. The result is a gradual disintegration of the body and the
onset of illness.
The opposite of this sort of disintegration is rejuvenation. The readings assert
that we are continuously rebuilding our bodies. Within any seven-year period, each cell
is replaced. If we'll allow it, our bodies will transform any problem and resuscitate any
condition. But our ingrained habits usually block this healing potential - the habits of
action and, even more potent, the habits of mind.
What role do drugs and medicine play in the healing process? Cayce's
philosophy clearly sees a place for them, but warns of misunderstanding how they work
and of expecting more of them than is possible. Any healing method attempts to create
an experience of oneness, in hopes of then stimulating a similar response in the body.
For some people in some situations, a drug may be the best way to accomplish this -
just as in other cases surgery may be the best way to stimulate healing. Medicines can
be a practical application of the one life force. Occasionally they must be very potent in
their reactions in order to get the patient through an acute illness. But Cayce from time
to time encouraged people to consider the herbal formulas he recommended to be
tonics and stimulants, rather than medicines.
The dangerous side of medicines is their potential to diminish the body's own
healing work. This is what Cayce alluded to when he warned about “palliatives “ that
deceive the soul with half-truths and temporary relief. It's also what he meant when he
warned that we shouldn't come to rely on any condition outside of ourselves that could
be assimilated by the body inwardly. All of this is to say, take the medications
prescribed by the physician you trust. Keep in mind this thought: what those chemicals
can do is temporarily - and somewhat artificially - give your body an experience of
greater oneness.
Healing that really takes hold and lasts must come from changing one's inner
consciousness and vibration. That happens most effectively from consistent and
persistent human effort (that is, engaging one's desires, purposes, and will) - something
that pills all too easily allow us to skip.
These have been long-standing. Do not take the treatments just a few days, or
even a few weeks, and expect to be well - and then revert to old conditions. But
be consistent and persistent! Have periods when these will be taken (that is,
ALL of those things indicated) for two, three to four weeks. Then rest by leaving
them off a week. And then be just as patient and just as persistent as though
you were beginning all over again. 976-1

Cayce's healing philosophy includes other insights that can help us avoid
misunderstanding. For example, one principle states that the best treatment
procedures sometimes cause a temporary worsening of conditions. If we didn't
recognize this possibility, we might give up just before the benefits begin to appear. A
closely related principle states that when a body is re-establishing its attunement, it
tends to be more sensitive. Again, if we misunderstand that heightened sensitivity, we
might not see the good that is slowly being effected.
The mind is a focus of other healing principles. The unconscious mind plays a
role in many illnesses and diseases. One example of this is the karmic factor in health

problems. Memories from previous incarnations, stored in the soul mind, can trigger
problems in the body. Of course, we shouldn't go so far as to suppose that every health
challenge has past-life roots; nevertheless, the perspective of reincarnation can help us
understand what we could possibly be dealing with as we seek healing.
The familiar Cayce axiom, “Mind is the builder, “ leads us to wonder exactly
which attitudes and emotions best foster healing. The readings emphasize several:
 Self-acceptance. As we rid ourselves of self-condemnation, we make room for
healing forces to enter.
 Optimism and hope. We're encouraged to expect healing.
 Patience. It's much easier and quicker to destroy health than it is to rebuild it.
We need to be willing to patiently invest whatever time is required.

Alongside these specific attitudes and emotions, we're invited to use the creative
potential of visualization to stimulate our own healing. The mind's image-making
capacity can be directed in such a way that we “see “ the healing transformation taking
place. This is not something that's accomplished in a single visualization session. Like
all the Cayce health-promoting approaches, it requires persistence and works best in
conjunction with other healing methods.
Perhaps the most important principle of the mind's relationship to healing
concerns purposefulness. A person can experience temporarily an outer healing - that
is, in the physical body only - yet still be spiritually sick. What cures the soul? A
commitment to a purposeful life. Not just any purpose, but instead one that reflects care
for other people.
On occasion a reading from Cayce would pose this question to the person who
was ill: What would you do with your life if you were healed?
What would the body be healed for? That it might gratify its own physical
appetites? That it might add to its own selfishness? Then (if so) it had better
remain as it is. . . But first the change of heart, the change of mind, the change
of purpose, the change of intent. 3124-2

The position of Cayce's psychic source was simply this: Why correct the
physical condition unless there's also going to be an inner correction? People who are
looking for both inner and outer healing are the best candidates for restored health and
vitality. In Cayce's philosophy, healing should equip us to be more useful to others.
With this ideal of service in mind, we might also wonder just how we can be
channels of healing to others. What principles govern our efforts to be healers to those
for whom we have concern? One principle is based on the spiritual connections that
exist between all people. It states that as we bring the experience of oneness into our
own consciousness, it can profoundly help someone else experience oneness,
attunement, and healing. Cayce's way of putting it was, “...raising the Christ
Consciousness in self to such an extent as it may flow out of self to him thou would
direct it to. “ (281-7)
For this to be most effective, the recipient must desire such help and have
requested healing prayer. Of course, we can always pray for someone, even if that
individual hasn't asked us. But it's important that we not assume we know what's
needed in any person's life. For one who hasn't specifically asked for prayer, we can
simply offer prayers of protection and blessing, rather than try to direct healing energies
to that person or for a specific condition.

It is also important to remember that each reading was given for an individual. It
must be emphasized that no suggested treatments for any particular ailments should
be “lifted “ from any individual reading and tried by another individual except under the
supervision of and with the cooperation of a physician or licensed health care
professional. However, there were many suggestions that were given over and over,
and these can be studied to find how they apply to ourselves. These healing principles
can be grouped in four categories that referred to as CARE.
Circulation – moving the blood around the body through therapies such as massage
or spinal manipulation
Assimilation – encouraging the body to pull the proper nutrients from the food by
eating the proper foods and in the proper combinations
Relaxation – taking time to rest and let the body recuperate and counterbalance the
daily activities
Elimination – removing the waste products from the body through therapies such as
sweats, colonics, and fume baths
For more information about CARE and recommendations on the lifestyle
described in the readings, please see Dr. Harold J. Reilly’s Handbook for Health. There
are also many verbatim collections of the readings in other Circulating Files, Research
Bulletins, and Treatment Plans for individual diseases which may be purchased
through Customer Service at 800-333-4499.
The A.R.E. is interested in having all the material in the health readings
reviewed by physicians and health care professionals who also provide summaries of
their findings in the hope that the information may prove beneficial to others. When time
and finances permit it is planned to have all the information in the health readings read
by one or more physicians and the subject matter summarized. Please send any
feedback to

We do not advocate a do-it-yourself process. Please seek out the advice of a
health professional before implementing any recommendation.
In summary, the Cayce readings remind us that our natural state is wholeness
and health. An innate wisdom within ourselves knows what's needed for healing. We
should expect to get well, and we should be willing to do our part to make it possible.

Urinary Incontinence
by Dr. Dana Myatt
[Link]

Natural Support for this Embarrassing Problem

Inability to completely control the flow of urine is a common complaint, effecting up
to twenty million Americans. Symptoms may range from a mild inability to hold urine when
coughing or laughing to inability to hold urine at any time. The condition occurs in both men
and women, although women and elderly people are more commonly afflicted.
Causes of urinary incontinence include weak pelvic floor muscle tone, weak urethral
(bladder) muscle tone, medication side-effects, nerve damage, food allergy, urinary tract
irritation (from drugs, foods, bacteria, viruses, fungi), imbalanced pH, and increased
intestinal permeability. Some of the drugs used to treat incontinence have dangerous side-
effects and should be avoided if at all possible. Self-help measures prove highly valuable.
Diet and Lifestyle Recommendations
• Finish daily water intake by 5 p.m. (This helps decrease nighttime urination). DO
NOT, however, decrease daily water intake. Drink 64 ounces of pure water daily.
Dehydration predisposes to urinary tract infections.
• Eliminate known food allergens (which can irritate the urinary tract and cause
increased frequency).
• Check with your physician or pharmacist about any medications you are taking.
Some can cause incontinence.
• Achieve and maintain a normal weight. Excess weight pushes down on the
bladder and compromises muscular ability.
• Avoid caffeine, nicotine, and alcohol, all of which increase urination.
• Practice KEGEL exercises: tighten muscles to stop the flow while urinating. Feel
the muscles at work? Tense these muscles during the day, hold as tightly as possible for a
count of 10, relax. Repeat up to 20 times per day. (Do these when you are NOT urinating.
The first time is done just to "feel" which muscles are at work). You can do this in a car, in
line at the grocery store, etc. You will notice improvement beginning in 3 weeks.
Primary Support
• Max Multi: 3 caps, 3 times per day with meals. Optimal (not minimal) doses of
antioxidants (A, C, E, beta carotene, selenium), are particularly important in treating urinary
incontinence.
• Saw Palmetto: 1 cap, 2 times per day between meals. [Target dose: 240 mg per
day]. Although best known for male prostate gland enlargement, this herb is useful in both
men and women to tone the urinary bladder sphincter muscle. It also has a positive effect
on male and female libido.
Tests
• Consider having a male or female hormone profile performed. Decreased sex
hormones are associated with a laxity of the bladder sphincter muscles. Natural hormone
replacement therapy can be very helpful in this condition.
Dr. Myatt's Comment
The above-listed measures, especially weight loss (if overweight), Kegel exercises,
saw palmetto and hormone balancing really do work to correct urinary incontinence, even
in very old people….

Incontinence - Urinary
[Link]

Urinary incontinence is the inability to control urination. It affects more than 13

million people of all ages in the United States. It is more common in the elderly and
women.
Incontinence is classified as either stress incontinence (caused by coughing,
laughing, sneezing), urge incontinence (losing urine when suddenly feeling the urge to
urinate), overflow incontinence (continually leaking urine), functional incontinence (in
people with a brain injury), or transient incontinence (temporary incontinence).
Treatment is highly effective in more than 80% of patients. Exercise and behavioral
therapies are most successful.
Signs and Symptoms
Not being able to hold your urine until you get to a bathroom
Frequent and unusual urges to urinate
What Causes It?
Stretched pelvic muscles from pregnancy and childbirth
Low estrogen levels in women
Enlarged prostate in men
Side effects of certain medications
Urinary tract infections (UTIs)
Frequent constipation
Damage to or diseases of the brain or spinal cord (for example, dementia, spinal
cord injury, multiple sclerosis, stroke)
Weakened muscles that control urination (urethral sphincter and pelvic-floor
muscles)
What to Expect at Your Provider's Office
Your health care provider will give you a physical examination. Your health care
provider may also ask you questions about your past prostate problems, pregnancy,
hysterectomy, your pattern of urinating, when your urine leakage occurs, and whether
you strain or experience discomfort when you urinate. You may be asked to cough
vigorously to see if it causes urine loss, a sign of stress incontinence.
Your provider may suggest urine tests to detect infection, urinary stones,
diabetes, and other underlying causes. A pelvic ultrasound may be performed to
examine your bladder, kidneys, and urethra.
Treatment Options
Exercises: Kegel exercises strengthen muscles that control urination. While
increased muscle tone requires long-term exercise, squeezing the muscles just
before coughing or sneezing provides initial relief.
Biofeedback: Electronic devices inserted into the vagina or rectum aid in muscle
identification for exercise therapy.
Relaxation techniques may help you go longer without urinating.
Habit training helps establish regularity of urination.
Several types of drugs are available to help muscle control. Surgery is also helpful,
particularly in women with stress incontinence and for men with an enlarged prostate.

10
INCONTINENCE CIRCULATING FILE

Various other options exist as well, such as catheters, urethral plugs, condom
catheters, and absorbent pads or underwear.

Complementary and Alternative Therapies

Alternative therapies mainly involve Kegel exercises, biofeedback, and
preventing any conditions that worsen incontinence. Yoga may help as well. Always tell
your health care provider about the herbs and supplements you are using.

Nutrition and Supplements

Cranberries and blueberries contain substances that keep bacteria from
adhering to the bladder. This may help prevent infections that can make
incontinence worse, while also deodorizing urine.
Eat antioxidant foods, including fruits (such as blueberries, cherries, and
tomatoes), and vegetables (such as squash and bell peppers).
Eat more high fiber foods, including beans, oats, root vegetables (such as
potatoes and yams), and psyllium seed.
Avoid refined foods such as white breads, pastas, and sugar.
Eat fewer red meats and more lean meats, cold-water fish, tofu (soy, if no
allergy) or beans for protein.
Cut down on oxalate-containing foods, such as spinach, rhubarb, beets, nuts,
chocolate, black tea, wheat bran, strawberries, and beans.
Include foods rich in magnesium and low in calcium, such as barley, bran, corn,
rye, oats, soy, brown rice, avocado, banana, and potato.
Use healthy cooking oils, such as olive oil or vegetable oil.
Reduce or eliminate trans-fatty acids, found in commercially baked goods such
as cookies, crackers, cakes, French fries, onion rings, donuts, processed foods,
and margarine.
Avoid coffee and other stimulants, alcohol, and tobacco.
Drink 6 - 8 glasses of filtered water daily.
Exercise moderately, if tolerated, for at least 30 minutes daily, 5 days a week.
You can address nutritional deficiencies with the following supplements:
A multivitamin daily, containing the antioxidant vitamins A, C, D, E, the B-
vitamins and trace minerals, such as magnesium, calcium, zinc, and selenium.
Calcium citrate, 500 - 1000 mg daily, for bone and muscle support.
Vitamin D, 400 IU daily, for bone and muscle support.
Magnesium citrate, 200 - 400 mg daily, for muscle support.
Probiotic supplement (containing Lactobacillus acidophilus ), 5 - 10 billion CFUs
(colony forming units) a day, for maintenance of gastrointestinal and immune
health. You should refrigerate your probiotic supplements for best results.
Omega-3 fatty acids, such as fish oil, 1 - 2 capsules or 1 tbs. of oil one to two
times daily, to help decrease inflammation and improve immunity. Cold-water
fish, such as salmon or halibut, are good sources.
L-theanine, 200 mg one to three times daily, for nervous system support.
Acetyl-L-carnitine, 500 mg daily, for antioxidant and muscle protective activity.

Herbs
Herbs are generally a safe way to strengthen and tone the body's systems. As with any
therapy, you should work with your health care provider to get your problem diagnosed

11
INCONTINENCE CIRCULATING FILE

before starting any treatment. You may use herbs as dried extracts (capsules,
powders, teas), glycerites (glycerine extracts), or tinctures (alcohol extracts). Unless
otherwise indicated, you should make teas with 1 tsp. herb per cup of hot water. Steep
covered 5 - 10 minutes for leaf or flowers, and 10 - 20 minutes for roots. Drink 2 - 4
cups per day. You may use tinctures alone or in combination as noted.
The following herbal remedies may provide relief from symptoms:
Cranberry ( Vaccinium macrocarpon ) standardized extract, 300 - 400 mg daily,
for kidney health. You may also drink 8 - 16 ounces of unsweetened cranberry
juice daily.
Green tea ( Camellia sinensis ) standardized extract, 250 - 500 mg daily, for
antioxidant and immune effects. Use caffeine-free products. You may also
prepare teas from the leaf of this herb.
St. John's wort ( Hypericum perforatum ) standardized extract, 300 mg two to
three times per day, for symptoms of urinary incontinence. Check with your
health care provider if you are taking prescription medications.
Saw palmetto ( Serenoa repens ) standardized extract, 160 mg twice daily, for
men with symptoms of prostate-related urinary incontinence.

Homeopathy
Some of the most common remedies used for urinary incontinence are listed below.
Usually, the dose is three to five pellets of a 12X to 30C remedy every 1 - 4 hours until
your symptoms get better.
Causticum for stress incontinence, especially with retention from holding the
urine and frequent urges to urinate
Natrum muriaticum for stress incontinence, vaginal dryness, and pain during
sex, especially with a history of grief
Pareira for retention of urine from an enlarged prostate
Sepia for stress incontinence with sudden urge to urinate, especially with
prolapsed uterus and vaginitis
Zincum for stress incontinence, urinary retention from prostate problems, and
the inability to urinate while standing

Acupuncture
May help, depending on the cause of the incontinence. Acupuncture may also
strengthen the urogenital system.

Following Up
Exercise and behavioral therapy can be highly successful. You may need close
monitoring by your health care provider and support from someone close to you to stay
committed to these lifestyle changes.

Special Considerations
If you are pregnant, consult with your health care provider before taking any
medication. For men, regular prostate examinations can detect problems early….

(Physical Suggestion)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [550], this body we have had before.
2. There are many changes in the general physical forces of the body from that as
we have had before. There are changes that are natural in the order of the activities
of a physical body in materiality. There are changes that have been brought about
by the weakening of organs and the functioning of organs through this general
deterioration that sets in, in such an activity and environ.
3. As we find, many of these are somewhat of a constitutional nature. But there may
be brought temporary relief, and changes that will be helpful and give many more
years of an activity comparatively free from distress or incapacitation; making for
capacities for the body to carry on and adjust itself to the changing conditions and
make those necessary arrangements for the changes that must eventually come to
every physical body.
4. There is, as is seen, a weakening of the abilities of the organs to re-inhibit or re-
capacitate themselves, which is indicated by the activity in varied portions of the
system.
5. There is the tendency for the slowing up of the blood supply. There is the
changing in the pressure in the heart's activity, or pressure in the blood supply. This
causes those periods when there are the effects of these both in the nerve system
and the organs that are thus affected by these repressions as produced.
6. There is the tendency for a slowing of the circulation through the hepatics. Hence
the inability of the body to have the normal functioning of the hepatic circulation.
The liver is torpid, the spleen engorged, and the activity of the pancreas is
increased by the pressure that is made not only in the general circulation but by the
toxic forces that are maintained in system by the poor eliminations; and the
incapacity of the bladder to retain the urine is produced from that tendency for the
accumulations of sugar, for the engorgement of those tubes that make an outlet
from the bladder itself. And the inflammation that is caused there, more than that of

14

the diabetic nature, is the excess of the repressions in the system; though with a
diabetic reaction to same.
7. This makes for a slowing circulation, a tendency for the swelling at times in the
lower extremities, a heaviness at the back of the neck and a dizziness at times
when attempting to rise quickly; or with an excitement to the mental activities of the
body we find the recurrent conditions or the effects of same are depressing to the
whole general system.
8. Poor assimilations through many portions of the digestive area, making for
indigestion in one portion of the system and an overacidity in another portion - or
regurgitation - that makes for distresses.
9. As we would find, a compound put together in this way and manner, added to the
body in this form, would be materially helpful to the body:
10. To 6 ounces of dried sage, add 32 ounces of distilled water. Reduce by slow
boiling until 16 ounces would be left. Strain while warm and to this add:
Gin (preferably Gordon's Gin)............6 ounces,
Compound Simple Syrup (but the syrup made of BEET sugar, not cane
sugar)...2 ounces.
Dissolve 15 grains Ambergris in 1 ounce pure grain alcohol.
Add to same 3 drams Cinnamon in the stick.
Shake the solution together before the dose is taken; a teaspoonful four times
each day, fifteen to twenty minutes before the meals and upon retiring.
11. We would also have the general massage as may be neuropathically given,
beginning in the central portion of the body, following same along the nerves from
the 9th dorsal to the upper portion of the body - even to the tips of the fingers; then
from the 9th dorsal DOWNWARD to the very tips of toes; rubbing AWAY FROM the
body rather than to same.
12. In the matter of diet, be mindful that sugars are kept from the general activities
in the food values; and not any white bread. Preferably the whole wheat, browned
at most times, or Graham or rye, but preferably at all times toasted. Citrus fruits are
well.
13. Keep the eliminations through the alimentary canal well in hand.
14. Use high enemas when necessary to evacuate the whole of the colon and to
remove the pressure that is ordinarily maintained on the kidneys, and on the
bladder particularly.
15. The activities should be as much in the open as possible for the body.
16. Ready for questions.
17. (Q) What causes apparent hay fever, and sneezing?
(A) With the corrections that we find will be gained by the manipulative
measures over the body; that is, from the 9th dorsal upward, we will relieve those
pressures that tend to make for an irritation in the muco-membrane of the nasal
passages, by the removal of those pressures in the upper dorsal and cervical area
that tend to make for this irritation to the bronchi and to the nose.
This is an attempt rather of the circulation to adjust itself under the general
strain that has existed and does exist in the system.
With the use of antiseptics that may be taken in the form of the inhalant that
would be prepared in this way and manner, we will find the irritation will be allayed:

15
INCONTINENCE CIRCULATING FILE

To 4 ounces of pure grain alcohol in an 8 ounce container, preferably with a

glass cork, add in this order:
Eucalyptol..............................20 minims,
Rectified Oil of Turp....................5 minims,
Benzosol in solution....................15 minims,
Rectified Creosote.......................2 minims,
Tincture of Benzoin.....................10 minims,
Tolu in solution........................30 minims.
Keep this well corked, but when there is the tendency for sneezing or for
running of the nose, inhale DEEP through the nostrils, after shaking together,
FROM this container, see? This may be done about two, three, four times each
day, or whenever there is the tendency. This acts as an antiseptic to the muco-
membranes of the nasal cavity. It may also be breathed once or twice into the
mouth or throat, to relieve irritation there.
And with the manipulation, and with the change made by the properties that will
act upon the liver, spleen and pancreas and the eliminations of the alimentary
canal, the distress should be relieved.
18. (Q) What causes cramps in legs and feet at night, and what should be done to
relieve or correct the condition?
(A) This, as indicated, is from the poor circulation; but the massage will relieve
same.
19. (Q) Any other advice for the better welfare of the body?
(A) We would do these, as we find; and, as has been given, the disorders in the
system will be relieved.
20. We are through with this reading.
(Letter was enclosed for druggist and neuropath. It may be that Mrs. [639] can give the neuropathic
massage, but it would be well for her to watch a neuropath give the massage once or twice - as per
reading suggestions - to get the drift of it. Mr. [550]'s diet is not outlined in detail, but since an
overacid condition is mentioned, I would suggest that you follow a strictly ALKALIN reacting diet; as
per enclosed list, [See under 843-1 Reports] with the type of breads recommended in reading. GD.)

REPORTS OF READING 550-5 M 63

R1. 5/21/34 Wife [639]'s ltr.: "We appreciate the rdg. so very much. We are very interested
in the causes as given for Mr. [550]'s condition, and his feelings are very well described, we
should say... We do not have a neuropath in our town, but we do have a naturopath and he
may be able to give the massage as directed."
R2. 6/1/34 Mr. [550] wired for emergency Physical Rdg. for his brother [4845]'s son, then
6/2/34 wired that the boy had died last night.
R3. 6/2/34 EC's ltr. to Mr. [550]: "I received your wires of the 1st and 2nd. I'm indeed sorry
to hear of your relative's passing.
There were some unusual circumstances, we might say, surrounding us at the time
we received this request. We left yesterday afternoon open, feeling that there might be an
emergency call. A man drove in here from ..., Ill., bringing his son [567] for a reading, and
asked if we could not get it that afternoon. We gave him the time, and had just finished with
the reading when your first wire came. So it was impossible to do anything about it until this
morning, and then we had your other wire that it was too late. I had felt inwardly that this
was so. This sort of thing doesn't happen very often, and I'm sorry indeed it was not
possible for us to at least have tried. We don't always understand these things; we don't

16
INCONTINENCE CIRCULATING FILE

know just why that some people are called in one portion of their experience and others in
another. It's hard to know just what it is, and in the midst of life we are in the midst of death,
and in the midst of death we are in the midst of life. I suppose, after all, it is what we do
about that we know that is important, rather than how much we know.
"I'm hoping this finds you on the improve. I appreciate your interest, and am indeed
sorry not to have been of some service in regard to your request."
R4. 6/3/34 Wife [639]'s ltr.: "We have not been able to start the treatment as we have had
trouble in getting the pure Gordon's Gin and the Ambergris. Both had to be ordered away
from here and the druggist who is filling prescription thinks he will have them sure this
week. Have been waiting to start all the tr. at the same time. We will keep you advised and
will get started at earliest possible moment. Mr. [550] has been on a no sugar, no white
flour diet for most six weeks and there is a great improvement."
R5. 6/15/34 Wife [639]'s ltr.: "One of the prescriptions given for Mr. [550] calls for 15 grains
Ambergris. Druggist here unable to get it from any wholesale drug house in Fla. and has
had it ordered from N.Y. but nothing has been heard from the order. Can you advise us
where it can be purchased as we are quite anxious to get started on the treatment. The
other prescription we have filled and Mr. [550] is now using it, also he has had one
treatment by our naturopath [Franklin C. Rasmussen, M.D.] who is giving the neuropathic
massage as directed in reading. He will take one treatment each week. We are very sorry
the tr. has had to be delayed. Have the Gin now and the Ambergris is the only thing
lacking. We are hoping you can give us some information regarding it."
R6. 6/18/34 ltr. from EC to Mr. [550] and Mrs. [639]: "Yours of the 15th I have just received.
The druggist here does not have the Ambergris either, but I find that I have on hand exactly
the amount needed. This is rather expensive, as you will see, but we are sending it to you
at the wholesale cost price. It is what we had left from the drug room at the hospital, and
this is an ingredient that is rarely used in drugs; it is more often used in perfumes. But as
we had several calls for it in reading prescriptions, the drug department at the hospital
stocked it. I am glad that I had enough left to fill Mr. [550]'s prescription. We are sending the
fifteen grains in solution, under separate cover C.0.D. $2.00, as per your instructions. As
you will see, this was obtained from Eimer & Amend in New York City, and should you
need more of it your druggist would probably be able to obtain it there.
"Hoping this will be satisfactory, and that Mr. [550] will soon be feeling a great deal
better, I am..."
R7. 6/22/34 EC's letter: "About the beet sugar, I don't know just where to tell you; though, of
course, as you no doubt know, most of the sugar used in the West is beet sugar. It is
especially found or used in Colorado, Wyoming, and those territories around there. You
could no doubt obtain it very easily from any wholesale grocery company in St. Louis, or
the like. Or you may have already gotten it."
R8. 6/28/34 Wife [639]'s ltr.: "Mr. [550] kept the Ambergris you sent and used it in his first
prescription. He now has enough for two and a half prescriptions that came from N.Y. We
have just rec'd the beet sugar from both Denver and Michigan. The druggist completed the
prescription yesterday and Mr. [550] started with it last evening. He now has and is doing
all stated in the rdg., and we are hopeful of results. He is taking the neuropathically given
massage as indicated twice a wk. - Monday and Friday. I will let you hear from us in a
couple of weeks or so as to progress."
R9. 7/17/34 "Mr. [550] has now been taking all the tr. as prescribed in rdg. just about 3 wks.
No marked improvement as yet, but on the whole he is much better than when I wrote you
for his rdg."
R10. 8/8/34 "We feel we can see improvement in Mr. [550]'s condition in many ways. His
sneezing and head condition seems better, though he is having quite a lot of trouble with
his eyes. We presume that also is just a result of the general condition. We are not at all

17
INCONTINENCE CIRCULATING FILE

discouraged for we know he was in a very bad condition and it will take time. Some way we
have great faith in the reading given through you, which we are endeavoring to carry out
exactly as given, and we will keep you advised." [She requested a Ck. Physical for herself
See 639-2.]
R11. 8/29/34 Wife [639]'s ltr.: "I am sure I can report to you that Mr. [550] is greatly
improved. He seems stronger and more like himself most of the time, though at times he
still feels bad. It has only been two months so we feel he is coming along fine and feel very
encouraged."
R12. 9/10/34 "About a wk. ago Mr. [550]'s urinal test showed no sugar but that he was in a
very acid condition and he developed a dull, sick, heavy pain in his right hip which has
been constant but much worse at night, so that for 3-4 nights he sat up most of the time. It
lasted so long that Sat. he went to a local physician to see if something could be done to
stop the pain. The Dr. had him take 'Alycin' put up by The Wm. S. Merrell Co., Cincinnati,
and 'Upjohn's Citrocarbonate.' He stopped taking the medicine prescribed in your rdg.
while he took the above from Sat. noon until this a.m. He slept much better Sat. & Sun.
nights, but he still has the pains. He was only up once last night and then he had pains in
his testicles. The last 2 days the hip has had a very decided numbness.
"He does not want to do anything that would interfere with, or take anything that
would interfere with the things given in your rdg. still he had the pain so long and lost so
much sleep he felt he had to do something.
"He still has the pain and numbness this morning so I decided I would write you
about it. We are wondering if the Citrocarbonate would interfere with anything in the
prescription given by you, also the Alycin. We cannot understand what happened to bring
this condition on, as we were beginning to see quite an improvement we thought. He has
had no sugar at all, using Saccharin in coffee and what sweetening he has had. Has had
no white bread - using a special bread manufactured in Tampa, Fla. by a food specialist
especially for such cases, of whole wheat and containing mineral oil. He has had very little
other starch. His diet has been meats, vegetables and fruits, milk, cheese, etc.
"He takes 2 tr. a wk. from the naturopath, giving the neuropathical treatments as
directed in rdg., and he takes the urinal tests. He also had him give him some electrical
treatments on the hip. Also took a high enema one afternoon and then the next morning
drank one qt. of warm water with 2 level teaspoons of salt dissolved in it half hr. before
breakfast. The two together gave him a good inner cleaning.
"If the condition continues, we don't know what to do. We want to adhere strictly to
the tr. given in rdg. for we have faith in it, and we would like you to write us at once what
you think about it and what we should do for the pains and numbness.
"He is to have a neuropathical tr. and urinal test this p.m. and we are hoping this
test will show better. We don't want to go to a doctor [medical?] as we haven't much faith in
them and it is hard to know who to go to when necessary."
R13. 9/14/34 EC's ltr.: "I think you have done exactly right in going to the doctor, and I'm
sure the Alycin and Upjohn's Citrocarbonate would not interfere with any of those
treatments Mr. [550] has been taking according to the rdg. We are setting a check-up
appointment..."
R14. 9/19/34 Ltr. verifying the date: "He still has the pain in the back at the right hip but not
nearly so severe. We will be glad to have the check-up rdg." [See 550-6 for toxemia and
sciatica.]

TEXT OF READING 576-3 M ADULT

This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia
Beach, Va., this 15th day of June, 1935, in accordance with request made by the
self - Mr. [576], Active Member of the Ass'n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.
PRESENT

READING
Time of Reading 11:00 to 11:10 A.M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., Ohio.
(Physical Suggestion)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [576].
2. As we find, there is considerable change in the physical forces of the body from
that as we have had here before. Some show considerable improvement; others
not so good, or showing for a tendency for deterioration in their abilities for the
functionings.
3. These, then, are the conditions as we find them in the present, [576].
4. The BLOOD SUPPLY is somewhat improved by those applications that have
aided in producing a greater power of eliminations through the activities of the
increased vibratory forces set in dis-eased portions by the use of the high vibratory
forces of the radium. This is very well to be continued. For, as we find, it would be
most helpful in clarifying the conditions.
5. However, we find that it would be well to add with same a massage over the
lumbar, the sacral area; or over the sacrum, the lower lumbar, and to at least the
9th and 10th dorsal. For such a massage we would use equal parts of Mutton Suet
(or Mutton Tallow), Turpentine and Spirits of Camphor, and Compound of Tincture
of Benzoin. Mix these thoroughly together, and massage each evening just
sufficient for the body to absorb, as the body is ready for rest. These would assist in
clarifying, through their absorption that -to be sure - becomes increased by the
vibrations set up by the radial activity in the system itself. This will prevent irritation
in the kidney and bladder, by the over amount of the secretions thrown from the
system through the increased activity of these organs to create a balance in the
disturbed organs or through those glands in the areas as indicated that show for the
greater disturbance.
6. As to the conditions in the sympathetics as related to the sensory forces, or the
ear, we find that while these make for a great deal of disturbance they may be
materially aided by the application of the Elliot activity - or machine - through the
ANTRUM. This will make for the relaxation of those tendencies for the system to
slow the circulation through the soft tissue to the Eustachian tubes. Such a
treatment we would give every other day, the Elliot tubes in or through the nostril.
And we would have a massage following same, which would be very helpful. These
would be the better applications in this direction.
7. In regard to the diet and the activities of the body, these we would keep near
those that are capable of being taken by the body under the existent conditions.

20
INCONTINENCE CIRCULATING FILE

8. While we do not find the body would be entirely RID of the disorders, greater
improvements may come to the body. But keep the mental attitude as this:
9. Be HELPFUL in thine hopefulness for self towards others, thus creating in self a
proper mental balance. Make, then, thine experience worth while in that which may
create or bring about in the experience of OTHERS helpful hopefulness in their
experience; not as to material benefits, but that which arouses the spirit within each
and every soul - the desire to do SOMETHING for the other fellow.
10. Ready for questions.
11. (Q) Should the strychnine and iron tablets be continued?
(A) These would be well. They are necessary to make for the increased
circulation.
12. (Q) Can anything be done to produce normal, restful sleep?
(A) The Radio-Active Appliance would be most helpful in this direction. This
would be taken for an hour, an hour and a half to two hours each night.
13. (Q) What can I do to gain in strength and endurance?
(A) As indicated, the purifying of the blood stream, so that that assimilated gives
greater strength. Through the massage and the general applications; these would
be the more helpful.
14. (Q) Can anything be done to facilitate the urine condition?
(A) As indicated; the massages of the compound will aid in this direction.
15. (Q) Should I continue the light calisthenics in the mornings?
(A) This is helpful.
16. We are through with this reading.

R1. 9/20/36 Letter from Mr. [576]:
Dear friend:
At last, after along, long delay, I am sending the books that I promised to send.
They will go, via parcel post, tomorrow.
You will find a varied selection, but there isn't one that is not worthwhile. I hope
they may be as helpful and as enlightening as they have been to me.
A year ago now I was near the end of the journey, from malnutrition, for lack of
money to buy the necessary food. Appealing to a friend in the East who was under
obligations to me I have received a small remittance every week since which has
resulted in renewed strength, so that I have been enabled to do more work and eke out
an existence.
I'm still taking the radium treatments and a drug to assist urination, but the
cause is still dominant, so that it is a continual fight for life.
My surgeon, who is giving the radium treatment, "got cold feet" and disregarded
your last instructions. As he is taking his pay in books I cannot insist on cooperation
with you. So, I'm just doing the best I can. If you should ever come to Dayton and meet
him it might make a difference. But I don't suppose your plans will bring you this way.
With kind regards and best wishes, [576].

TEXT OF READING 674-1 M 11

This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia
Beach, Virginia, this 29th day of September, 1934, in accordance with request by
the aunt, Mrs. [540], through Study Group #2 of the Association for Research &
Enlightenment, Inc.
PRESENT
Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. [674], Aunt [540],
Cousin [665], Helen Ellington, Mildred Davis and L. B. Cayce.
READING
Time of Reading 10:40 to 11:00 A.M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., Virginia.
(Physical Suggestion)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [674], present in this room.
2. Now, as we find, there are disturbing conditions in the better physical functioning
of this body. These, as we find, are of the specific nature, and the effects from
these disturb the functioning of glands; and through same there is a disorder in the
organic functioning of organs.
3. These, then, are the conditions as we find them with this body, [674].
4. As we find, in times back there was a subluxation produced in the 7th and 8th
dorsal center, which has made for a pressure in the amount of the impulses that are
carried through the nerve system to the functioning of the liver and the spleen, and
has made for a COLD circulation.
5. These, impulses have produced an excess activity in the pancreas; hence there
has been created through the glands the tendency for turning much into sugar that
should not be, so that starches and sugars add to the avoirdupois of the body
excessively and prevent the functioning in the liver, and an excess functioning in
the kidneys and THEIR activity upon the body; producing in the blood supply a
heaviness and an excess in the number of red blood cells, a deficiency in the white
as to the formation of that plasm necessary for keeping the astringent activity in the
coagulations through the system. And this will, unless altered or changed, gradually
grow excessive, affecting all portions of the system. This we see has been a
growth, NOW, for at least twenty-eight months, and the injury and the effect has
been for almost a like period.
6. Then, in meeting the needs of the conditions for this body, we find these
combinations will be as the necessary precautions AND corrections to be made in
this body:
7. First, the very nature of the disorders is such that the effects and that condition
already produced in the functioning of organs must be taken into consideration, as
well as the correction of the conditions that cause the trouble primarily. For to
prevent the activity of the pancreas or the kidneys or the bladder or a portion of the
spleen in its activity (as has been done), through astringents, will only relieve
temporarily. While the cause still remains the condition will continue to be produced
in the system, and whenever there is a reversal to a normal desire created - as
physical desire in appetite appeased - the conditions return and are more violent oft

23
INCONTINENCE CIRCULATING FILE

than before; hence there has been created or produced in the pancreas, in the liver,
the lacteal ducts, the kidney and this hepatic circulation, such conditions that the
system - attempting to adjust itself - has brought about specific disorders. This is
manifested in the languidness of the body at times, the inability to discern the
conditions that should be separated in their activity, the tendency to have things
and ideas and plans to run together, and at other times the inability to separate
things entirely as to their associations and their activities; a dullness, a lack of alert
activity - that arises from depreciation of activities in a normal hepatic circulation.
8. First we would begin, then, with making two characters of preparations; the first
as follows:
9. To 32 ounces of distilled water we would add 6 ounces of Dried Garden Sage.
Reduce by slow boiling (preferably in an enamel container with an enamel top; not
a tin) to 16 ounces. Strain, and while warm add:
Ambergris (cut in 1 ounce grain alcohol).......15 grains,
Strained Honey (in 2 ounces distilled water)....1 ounce.
Let the Strained Honey in the distilled water come to a boil; not BOIL, but just come
to a boil, before adding to the solution. Also add:
Gin (active principle of same being Juniper; such as Gordon's Gin or
Lachmer's [?]).......4 ounces,
Cinnamon, preferably in the stick...............3 drams.
Shake the solution together before the dose is taken, which should be half a
teaspoonful before the meals and at bedtime.
10. The second solution would be prepared in this manner:
11. To 16 ounces distilled water we would add 6 ounces of green or dry Ambrosia
Weed. Reduce by slow boiling to 8 ounces. Strain and add:
Strained Honey................................1/2 ounce,
Grain Alcohol...............................1 1/2 ounces,
Tincture of Stillingia........................1/4 ounce,
Essence of Burdock Root.......................1/4 ounce.
Shake this together before the dose is taken, which would be teaspoonful at
bedtime for periods of two or three days; then leave off for the same period and
begin again.
12. This is to keep the eliminations, and is as an active force producing with the
liver and the hepatic circulation an increasing of the lymph without disturbing the
activities of the spleen and pancreas secretions.
13. OSTEOPATHICALLY have those adjustments made in the dorsal area as
indicated, that show subluxations. We would also at such treatments
COORDINATE the rest of the system. As we find, preferably, these would be
applied - the applications for the adjustments - about twice each week for three or
four weeks. Then rest a period of a week. Then have the treatments two or three
weeks. Then rest a period of a week; then treat AGAIN for a couple of weeks.
14. And by then, with the other properties, the corrections should be made for the
body.
15. Be mindful that the diet is kept without those things that carry quantities of sugar
or starches, that make for an excess activity; or a diet of this kind during the period
of these adjustments:

24
INCONTINENCE CIRCULATING FILE

16. No candies of any kind. No pastries of any kind.

17. Mornings - cereals with fruit, raw or fresh fruit or with stewed fruit. Citrus fruits,
but do not take these at the same meal. Coddled egg; the whole egg may be taken
- this, while carrying an acid in same, if CODDLED - that is, put on with the water
boiling and take it off and let it set for four and a half minutes - it will be alright. Only
whole wheat browned bread.
18. One meal each day should be, at least, of leafy or raw fresh vegetables. Any of
these may be included; such as spinach, celery, lettuce, turnips, mustard, peppers,
tomatoes, with an oil dressing.
19. Evenings - well-cooked vegetables, with not too large a quantity of meats. Fish,
lamb, fowl may be taken; not beef nor hog meat nor of that nature.
20. Do these and, as we find, we will bring the better and normal conditions for this
body.
21. Ready for questions.
22. (Q) What causes the difficult breathing and smothering spells at night?
(A) The heavy circulation. Asthmatic condition, produced by the pressures in the
dorsal areas as we have indicated.
23. (Q) Where may Ambrosia Weed be found?
(A) In most any place where weeds are allowed to grow! It's Ragweed!
24. (Q) Is there an obstruction in the nose?
(A) With the change in the circulation, the absorption through the head should
relieve this. This is a growth more in the nature of the lymphoid, and not bony.
25. (Q) Is riding bicycle harmful, as this causes shortness of breath?
(A) In moderation, no.
26. (Q) Was the fall on face some years ago the injury referred to?
(A) It aided. The first was in the spinal system; fall on the face only increased
that in the upper dorsal area as indicated.
Do these, and we will bring normal conditions for this body. We are through for
the present. [See 674-1, Par. R1, R2.]

have been very gratifying. They (the family) are very happy and are trying to the

(Physical Suggestion)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body here.
2. Now, as we find, while in some respects the conditions have made some
improvements, in others there is not a great deal of change. There has not been as
much consistence in the diet or in the activities of the body, in relation to the
general conditions, as has been indicated. If these would be adhered to, in a
manner more in keeping with that which is to be met, we would find bettered
conditions.
3. To be sure, we will find that the corrections in the 9th and 10th dorsal area would
relieve a great deal of the pressure from the kidney - or the activity to the pancrean
reaction; as well as the general conditions in the relationships between the
sympathetic and cerebrospinal responses in the body. These we would do.
4. And follow those that have been given.
5. Ready for questions.
6. (Q) What causes bed wetting?
(A) This pressure, that makes for the over activity of the kidneys.
7. (Q) Is it harmful for him to go out in cold bareheaded?
(A) Of course, the body can be trained in this respect. And it is the way everyone
should train self to be! It isn't natural for people to wear hats!
8. (Q) What can he have in his diet?
(A) Those things that will make for the correct bodybuilding without making for
an increase in the avoirdupois. Keep away from sweets and too much starch.
9. (Q) Should he continue osteopathic treatments?
(A) We would continue to have the osteopath, but we would have the osteopath
to make those corrections - and not just give treatments!
10. (Q) Is it good for him to take gym at school?
(A) Very good.
11. (Q) How should the osteopathic treatments be given?
(A) Make those corrections that are necessary here in the area indicated, and
not just a general treatment without respect to the balance of the body on both the
axes of the body. Make the proper balance between the pelvis axis and the atlas
axis.
12. (Q) How often should they be given?

27
INCONTINENCE CIRCULATING FILE

(A) Once or twice a week would be sufficient, if properly given; especially if

there are the activities in the gym.
13. (Q) Should the medicine he has been taking be continued?
(A) This should not be necessary if there is the correct diet adhered to, and the
proper adjustments in the present. These elements are not necessary in the system
in the present.
14. (Q) Any further advice for this body?
(A) These we would follow for the better physical conditions of this body.
15. We are through with this reading.

REPORTS OF READING 674-2 M 12

R1. 9/9/39 [674] obtained his Life Rdg. See 674-3.

R2. 9/1/40 [674]'s answer to questionnaire: "Excess functioning of the kidneys and
difficult breathing were some of the symptoms described correctly by the reading. I
had no physician after the reading was given, except the osteopath. I carried out
the treatments as near as possible for four months. There has been much
improvement, but there are still some reoccurrences of the condition in the nose. I
think these readings are very worth while and helpful."

R3. 9/1/40 Dr. M. L. Richardson's answer to questionnaire: "The reading did

describe the condition of the patient. My technical diagnosis would be bronchial
asthma and eneuresis [bedwetting]. The suggestions for treatment in my opinion
were good. The patient followed directions in the reading under my care from
10/24/34 to 6/27/35. I observed some genuine relief. Environment and
circumstances (domestic) counter best results.

R4. 10/52 Dr. D. H. Fogel told GD that he would index this case under diabetes as
well as asthma.

PRESENT

READING
Time of Reading 4:00 to 4:15 P.M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., Ohio.
1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with
suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions she has
submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body, [951]; this we have had before.
3. As we find, conditions are quite different in the body in the present from that as
we have had at times here before.
4. Disturbing conditions in the present are rather of an acute nature, arising from
some EFFECT of impingements in the nerve forces of the body, - as combined with
an unbalanced condition in the chemical reactions in the system.
5. And the effect is in the tendency towards an over activity of kidneys as to
eliminations, and the activity through the bladder.
6. These of course, with the general strain, produce some inflammation; and a
tendency towards a pus formation. However, as we find, there is only a very LITTLE
of the pus formation - in the present.
7. And if there are the proper precautions and methods used in the present, this
may be eliminated from the system.
8. DO NOT have any cauterizing or internal treatments to the parts themselves,
unless greater disturbance than at present should arise, - through neglect or
through other conditions.
9. AS WE FIND, THEN:
10. We would have the general application of corrective forces osteopathically,
especially through the lower dorsal, lumbar and lumbar area, and a
COORDINATING of the areas in the upper dorsal and cervical; but those areas
especially in the 9th dorsal and downward.

30
INCONTINENCE CIRCULATING FILE

11. We would have these twice a week for the first two weeks - the general
osteopathic massage. Then once a week for about four or five weeks; a gentle,
THOROUGH massage with the correcting of those subluxations in the lower dorsal
AND the lumbar areas, you see; coordinating the rest of the body with same.
12. Also each evening at home we would have a thorough massage with an equal
combination of Mutton Suet, Spirits of Turpentine and Spirits of Camphor; gently but
thoroughly massaging this into the system across the kidney area, as well as
across the abdominal area, just above the pubic bone. To have the solution warm is
preferable, but precautions should be taken, of course, as to the manner in which
this would be done. Put the container or jar into warm water and let it stand for a
little time before the application is made.
13. After massaging this thoroughly into the system, apply a pad of heavy salt over
the same areas, - hot. This would preferably be sewn into a pad about half an inch
thick with the heavy, coarse salt; which would be heated then and put across the
back, and another over the frontal portions for a time, until they are entirely cold.
This is to drive the properties into the system that have been massaged or rubbed
in beforehand, - as well as for the effect the salt will have upon the bodily forces
themselves.
14. Also be careful of the diet. Include especially the Jerusalem artichoke twice
each week in the diet; and for THIS body take same raw rather than cooked, - so
that the activity of the insulin from same will be effective with the activity of the
lower hepatic circulation.
15. In the rest of the diet, keep away from dried beans or peas or the like; though
canned peas, of course, if they are well cooked, may be taken. Cooked cabbage,
cooked spinach or the like would be very well. NO hog meats of ANY kind! No
great quantities of fats of any kind. A great deal of fish or shellfish should be a
portion of the diet.
16. EVERY nature of food that is blood and bodybuilding would be well, but NO
FRIED FOODS!
17. Do these and we should bring the better conditions for this body, [951].
18. Ready for questions.
19. (Q) Is there colon bacilli and pus cells in the kidneys?
(A) This as we find is rather the effect of the OVERACTIVITY of the kidneys,
through the lower hepatic circulation. However, the colonic irrigations will be most
helpful; especially aiding the eliminating forces produced by the corrective forces in
the osteopathic adjustments.
When these colonic irrigations are taken, use a saline and soda solution, see?
20. (Q) Why the congestion in throat?
(A) This is a natural reaction from the nervous system, the stress and strain on
the lower portions of the system. As the manipulations are given, these should -
with the corrective forces - clear themselves.
21. (Q) So often her stomach refuses to retain foods.
(A) This is the effect of those subluxations in the lower dorsal area, as indicated.
22. (Q) What causes terrific headaches? [which osteopathy relieves]
(A) Nervous pressure and the general disturbance of the system.
Do those things as indicated, and we would eliminate these disturbances.

31
INCONTINENCE CIRCULATING FILE

23. (Q) Kidneys act very often day and night. Why does she not wake up?
(A) This is the natural activity of overstrain upon the system, you see; and tends
to make for a drugging as it were of the sensory forces.
Hence the need for the applications as indicated.
Do these and we find we will bring the better conditions for the body.
24. We are through with this reading.

R1. 12/1/38 Mother's ltr.: "We rec'd our rdgs. (623-4 & 951-3) & are well pleased with them.
We are getting along nicely with all tr. except we cannot get Jerusalem artichokes, they say
they are out of season & they do no carry them in the east - would be glad for some fruit
dealer to mail some to us c.o.d. [951] is at home today with a cold but her temperature is
not high. With 'fear & trembling', for I fear he may resent it, I will send the name & address
of [951]'s osteopathic physician: Robert L. Taylor, D.O." ["He has known & doctored [951]
since she was 11 yrs. old, when I first went to Dr. Alden L. McGowan's office & Dr. Taylor
was there just getting started."]
R2. 12/15/38 "Dr. Taylor knows that you may write him & I think it would be all right to. He
did not seem averse to the idea."
R3. 1/14/39 Mother said her sister-in-law had sent some Jerusalem artichokes which she
found in San Diego, Calif. "[951] is some better in the day time but not much better yet at
night."
R4. 2/8/39 Mother's letter: "Am writing to say [951] is so much better, in fact she seems to
be about well. She does not get up at night at all now, for the last three weeks. Her kidneys
and muscles seem the strongest they have ever been in her life. This was a serious thing,
for it caused her quite a sick spell a year or more ago. The M.D. at the time said he got her
just in time to save her such an awful sick spell and that it should not come back, but you
see it did.
"She got better as soon as she started on the artichokes. She eats one every 2-3
days, after she had eaten 2-3 she got better. She sometimes has pain and soreness low
across the front of her but I think a little time will fix that. Am sure she can do quite a lot for
herself mentally, she has quite a lot of brain power. Wish I could remember what I have or
have not told you about her [psychic] development." [See 951-4 Background.]
R5. 8/31/39 Mother's letter: "[951] is needing some more artichokes and Calif. is out, they
say they are out of season. She has been out for months, and she does not get entirely
well." [9/5/39 EC referred her to John A. Salzer Seed Co., LaCrosse, Wisconsin.]
R6. 10/3/39 Miss [951] obtained her Life Reading - See 951-4.
R7. 12/31/39 She wrote expressing appreciation for all the help she had rec'd through the
readings: "I moved furniture, scrubbed floors and beat rugs and have lived right through it.
One elbow howled a little, but I don't blame him, I was tired too. That's more hard work than
I've done in eight years, and I feel fine."
R8. 1/1/40 She referred Mrs. [2432] for Physical Reading; 4/24/40 Mr. [2177].

R12. 8/16/41 Mother requested her own 623-5 and said: "We are not any too good here.
Mr. [2461] is about the same and [951] still has some of her old troubles - does not get
enough osteopathic tr. I guess."

Association for Research and Enlightenment Virginia Beach, Virginia
ATTENTION: MR. EDGAR CAYCE:
Dear Friends:
Two friends of ours, Mrs. Grace Hall Hemingway and Mrs. Arthur Beach [Beath] of
Chicago, have told us of the Healing Powers that pour through Mr. Cayce and inasmuch as
my husband, [3669] is in urgent need of help, I am writing you in his behalf.
He is scheduled to go to the Hospital on August 15th for examination. He was
operated on late last fall and likewise had another smaller operation in the same region
some three months ago. That which he now faces is similar to the latter. It is said to be of a
serious nature and I am asking with a grateful and appreciative heart for suggestions and
for help. Will you kindly bring this to the attention of Mr. Cayce and if there is anything that
can be done for Mr. [3369] that would aid him and avoid the misery of the August 15th
experience, we would both be most deeply grateful.

B2. 8/3/43 Mrs. Beath's letter:

Paynesville Lake Koronis Gen. Del. Minneapolis
My dear Mr. Cayce:
Mrs. Hemingway and I spent some time in Minneapolis with Mrs. [...]: She is a far
advanced occult and spiritual soul - perhaps the greatest one I have ever had the privilege
of personally knowing. She is also a very dear friend of Mrs. Chas. S. Clark. We learned
that her husband [3369] is to go to the hospital the 15th of Aug. The doctors pronounce it
cancer [malignant growth]: we were telling her to contact you before having him have this
serious operation. I know you are dated far in advance, but this is a matter of life and death;
Mrs. [...] is writing you today - she does not know I am writing, but the urge has been so
strong all day to do this: You see we have great faith in your powers. I want to say that if
you have some one who will be willing to push their date ahead - even as far as Everett's
date Oct. 3rd; he will gladly give it up to save a life - he is that kind. This seems so
necessary, we do trust something can be done. We pray all will work together for good.
Gratefully and sincerely, (Mrs. A. E.) Lilian Beath

B3. Grace Hemingway's letter to EC:

Dear Mr. Cayce -
This is really a very great emergency for [3369] does not know his condition; but
unless God's healing can be used for him we have little reason for hope. There is no more I
can say.
Sincerely your friend in the Master's Name, Grace Hall Hemingway

B4. 8/17/43 EC's letter:

Mrs. A. E. Beath, Paynesville, Lake Koronis Gen. Del. Minneapolis, Minn.
Dear Mrs. Beath:
I have yours of the third regarding the reading for Mrs. [...]'s husband. I wish there
was something that we could do, but I am sure by now they have already operated, no
doubt, you know what the results will be. I appreciate more than I can tell you the interest
you and Mrs. Hemingway have indicated in this case and your confidence in my ability to
be of service.
We do, at times, reach our limitation and find that we must, if we would carry on at
all, withdraw and be alone with our Maker. This I have had to do recently, but as we are in
a material world where we count time and space as part of our experience, this has only

34
INCONTINENCE CIRCULATING FILE

cluttered up our appointments more and I do believe that just at this time we can't possibly
be of a help. I have to write to Mrs. [...] to this effect.
Thanking you, though, and with every good wish,
Sincerely, Edgar Cayce

B5. 8/17/43 EC's letter to [3369]'s wife:

..., Minn.
Dear Mrs. [...]
I have yours of a few days ago enclosing check and request for the reading for Mr.
[3369]. I have been trying to find a opportunity to get this in for you before the fifteenth. But
the fifteenth has come and gone and we were not physically able to undertake this. As I
understand from your friends, Mrs. Hemingway and Mrs. Beath that this is very serious. We
can only offer our prayers and hopes. Should he respond to the operation and you should
feel that you would like to have the information, write us again, but we are enclosing
herewith our check for the amount of the membership of $20 which you sent us.
Thanking you, I am
Sincerely, Edgar Cayce

B6. 10/19/43 [3369]'s wife's letter to EC:

Dear Mr. Cayce:
Early in August I wrote you with reference to my husband, Mrs. [3369], asking you if
you would kindly take his case and give me the result of your research. At that time an
operation upon him was set for the 15th of that month and you wrote me that you were
unable to take up his case at that time.
There has been much postponement of his operation and it did not occur until the
13th of this month (October). He will be returning home within a day or two but with the
probability of another operation within a few months again.
I am most desirous of doing my utmost to help him and whatever your finding is, I
should most deeply appreciate knowing it. Will you please take up his case when you find it
at all possible and let me know your suggestions and findings.
I have the honor of being a friend of Mrs. Myrtle Clark, Mrs. Grace Hemingway and
Mrs. Lilian Beath, all of whom, I believe wrote you in August in behalf of Mr. [3369]. Now
two friends of Mrs. Clark are calling on you - Mrs. Walgreen and Mrs. Bro, so I feel we are
friends.
Am returning the check that was returned to me for membership and please
reinstate me.
Most cordially, [...]
Mr. Edgar Cayce Association for Research and Enlightenment Virginia Beach, Virginia

B7. 11/5/43 Mr. [3369]'s letter to GD [dictated to his wife]:

Dear Miss Davis:
At the kind suggestion of Mrs. Bro, to Mrs. [...], I am sending you a somewhat
detailed description of my condition rather than send it to Mr. Cayce, as it is my
understanding that he is not interested in such history before the time of his reading. This
explains why I am writing this letter to you presenting a brief picture of the history of my
condition, rather than sending it to Mr. Cayce.
The first appearance of any manifestation, which finally has resulted in my present
condition, appeared approximately ten years ago. The doctors and specialists consulted
then passed the trouble off as probably a passing phase of no great importance. Somewhat
later the trouble became intermittent with periods of what appeared as total improvement,
later to return always in the form of hemorrhagic discharge from the bladder. Still later,

35
INCONTINENCE CIRCULATING FILE

because of its increasing frequency, a change of specialists was determined on, and so
three years ago after resorting to the usual tests and experiments, it was determined that
the cause of the difficulty was a flowing wound opening near the neck of the bladder and
that there was no remedy therefore except a major abdominal operation. This was finally
done and I was assured, successfully done.
The operating surgeon reported that the urethra exhibited symptoms of internal
growth and after due time must be the subject of another operation. No time was specified
but it was tacitly understood that as soon as I was ready that this operation should be
undertaken. Finally I had this done, spending a week in the hospital and then released
"under observation".
Two difficulties attend this condition during this period - these were the frequency of
urination and the involuntary control thereof. The result has been that I have been wholly
subjected to the demands of the bladder for its release and never safe to be where it could
not have instant attention. This has made business and its attendant meetings impossible.
At the present time there is evidence of hemorrhagic control but the surgeon gives
no assurance that I may anticipate the normal subconscious mind control of urinary
discharges. Should his supposition be negative, then I will be handicapped in such a
manner as to prevent active physical occupation or active attendance to office duties.
A third condition which the surgeon rather minimizes in importance pertains to the
enlargement of the right testicle as well as the contents of the scrotum and the
development therein of fever and intense pain something like the sensitiveness of a boil.
The Surgeon promises that this will be reduced through the use of ice packs and certain
other mechanical appliances.
All in all, the number of instances of surgical attention, including exploratory and
cystoscopic investigation number five, the last of which was had the latter part - middle
rather - of October, '43. Whether additional surgical attention must be had has not yet been
announced. Should you deem it necessary to have more detailed report on anyone of these
operations or exploratory surveys, then I should be pleased to secure same for you.
To-day's condition, as I see it, is ambiguous, as I do not clearly see the return of the
normal bodily control of the bladder discharge and, as stated above, the surgeon has not
given me definite assurances thereof.
Seeing the picture as I do, it is important that I have a clear understanding as to
what may be anticipated in the future in order that I may govern my life and work
accordingly.
My age is 72 and prior to the inception of this ailment, I have enjoyed almost perfect
health. What I am seeking now is practical direction and advice as to how to adjust my life
and what is to be my future occupation? Should you be able to direct questions giving
practical advice as to work that I could profitably enter into under existing conditions, I
would most greatly appreciate it.
In this connection, should you find that my life cycle has nearly reached its course,
then I should appreciate a statement thereof, supplemented with such practical advice and
direction as you may be able to give. Any suggestion given along this line will not seriously
depress me as I have always been engaged in esoteric philosophy research, thinking and
study.
Thanking you deeply for any services you may be able to render, I am [3369]

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 suggestions for help and relief of this body; answering the questions, as I ask
them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body, [3369], and those conditions that have disturbed the
better physical functioning of the body.
3. We find that these have to do with the activity of the kidneys, the bladder, and the
inability of the body to control the activity of the urinary canal - consciously or
unconsciously. These are in a state of recuperation, and as to whether the body will
ever be able to control the muscular forces through the nerve energies of the body,
of this functioning of the system, will depend a great deal upon the outcome of the
reactions that are given. It will also depend upon whether there will still be
inflammation, brought about by the lack of proper coagulation and the tendency for
this to become a condition setting up in itself and thus becoming of a consuming
nature, or of a static nature, not healing at all.
4. We find that these have been very well attended to thus far. However, in this
particular period, there may be added those things to aid in bringing the nearer
normal conditions - even with the operative forces and the removing of the
conditions causing the inflammation. For, this should not become malignant in its
nature, though with the tendencies it has the appearances of same.
5. Then, about twice each week we would use the Ultra-Violet Light with the green
glass projected between it and the body. This should be the Mercury-Quartz Light,
not just the heat light or carbon lamp. Use this not more than a minute or minute
and a half at the time, and at least forty-six inches from the body. The green plate
glass should be at least ten inches from the body. Apply this so that it covers those
areas of the bladder and scrotum.
6. After such applications use the Glyco-Thymoline packs as an antiseptic, at the
pubic centers. Understand, this is not over the affected area, but is over those
areas through which the circulation from the lymph passes to the mouth of the
bladder as well as to the activities through the scrotum and the testes. With these
Packs do not apply heat, but when these become very warm (from the body heat)
remove and put on another Pack. Do this about twice each week also, following the
Ultra-Violet application.
7. These as we find offer the better possibilities for healing than any other manner
that may be presented.
8. Of course, the relaxing of the body by gentle massages is only for the nerve
centers. This should be all above the 9th dorsal, at the 9th dorsal; just a massage,
not a treatment other than massage. This will rest the body.

9. In the diets keep to those things that do not act directly upon the kidneys, at least
until there is the semblance of the healing.
10. Do that.
11. Ready for questions.
12. (Q) What is the real cause for the condition from which I am suffering and for
which I have been operated upon several times?
(A) This comes from an inflammation or a strain in the areas producing the
tendency towards an accumulation of broken cellular tissue in the areas of the
bladder and urethra.
13. (Q) What is the possibility of secondary afflictions that now are beginning to
manifest themselves?
(A) As just indicated, we are trying to keep from these through those activities
suggested. As given, there may be the inability to control at all the urinary canal. Or
there may be the continued increasing of inflammation through testes, through
scrotum, through the bladder, as for it to form cancerous or consumptive conditions.
We are trying to avoid these.
14. (Q) [Left out of original copy] Since plate glass either deflects or absorbs the
ultra-violet ray, from what source does the body derive benefit from this treatment?
(A) Do this, as we have given. This we have given will help, if you will use it. If
you reason about it, just forget all of it.
15. We are through.

BACKGROUND OF READING 3683-1 F 63

B1. 5/15/43 Letter from [3883]'s niece, graduate nurse, who had been
nursing [3683] for four years: "...Her case has never been diagnosed. Four years
ago she became very ill, was delirious, put to bed, became daily worse, lost weight,
couldn't eat, ran a temperature of 1 to 3 above normal, finally became a living
skeleton. The doctor did everything he could. Every blood test was negative, two
spinal punctures were negative, head x-ray was negative, blood pressure normal.
Every known test was made and was negative. She finally became unconscious
and both the priest and doctor thought she had only a short time to live. However, I
did not give up hope. I had a nurse help me for about 10 days but could not afford
to keep her, so I worked mostly 18 or 20 hrs. a day. She responded to the
intravenous and after days and days of work and prayer she began to get stronger.
She recognized us, began to swallow food. Finally I got her up in a chair, but not
able to walk. The doctor tried many medicines and finally gave her Vitamin B. She
very gradually got stronger and learned to walk. She began to look very well but
seemed always afraid even to walk. The doctor saw her a year ago when I called
him because she has a twitching of the muscles. He could not believe she was the
person who had been dying. The specialist had given no hope. She was glad to see
the doctor and he asked her to walk for him, which she did. He said she was fine,
only he could not understand why she would not carry on a conversation. He said
she must be full of phobias. He said on leaving that if we could only find the key to
her trouble she would be perfectly well. She seems weak after walking around the
apartment for even 10 minutes. She is interested in what we do and likes to listen to
the radio. I have prayed constantly to find someone who could diagnose her case. I
asked her if she wanted me to write you and she said, 'Yes, oh yes, do'..."

B2. 2/14/44 Questions submitted by [3683]'s niece: "1. What is the cause of
the condition? What is the key to it? 2. Why doesn't she talk? 3. Why is she full of
phobias? 4. What causes and what should be done to overcome insomnia? 5.
What causes the occasional spells of violent jerking when awaking? 6. Why is she
unable to walk more than 5 minutes, and never alone? 7. What causes her at times
to bend forward, to groan, and to perspire, as if in great pain? and what can be
done to help her? 8. Is there a bladder or kidney condition? 9. What causes
incontinence of urine at night? 10. Is eyesight affected in any way? 11. Do teeth
cause any trouble? 12. What causes occasional tenseness in arm muscles? 13.
What sort of diet is suggested? Should extra vitamins be taken?..."

READING
Time of Reading 3:45 to 4:00 P.M. Eastern War Time. ..., Pennsylvania.
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 suggestions for help and relief of this body; answering the questions, as I ask
them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [3683].
3. As we find physically, there is a complication of disturbances. Yet we find that the
greater portion of these would respond, if better coordination were produced
between the organs of the central circulation - lungs, heart, liver, kidneys. For, as
we find, at various periods there are distresses in the system from one or all of
these disturbances, or these organs; yet that which control through circulation
through mastication or assimilation is controlled primarily through the activity of the
liver, as it is related to the other organs.
4. Thus we find that if physical measures were taken to correct the activities of the
liver, as it supplies activities through the greater portion of the system, the other
organs would respond - the kidneys, which at times cause a great deal of distress
by the continued or over activity . Thus those attempts of the body to eliminate
poisons become disturbing, as when the body attempts to rest or lies down - so that
the kidneys and bladder become disturbing. At times there are pressures in the
lungs, at others irregularity of heart. The activities of the liver, especially the right
lobe, cause a disturbance to the pancreas and the spleen. Thus, if we would relieve
the tensions here, the greater portion of the disturbances through the body would
be alleviated.
5. We would begin first, then, by making this application to the body:
6. Apply hot Castor Oil Packs for an hour each day for at least five days in
succession, over the liver and extending to the caecum area. Keep this heated as
much as the body can stand, but not sufficient to be disagreeable, just so there may
be the absorption of the oils. When the Pack is removed each time, bathe off with a
weak soda water.
7. On the third day of using these Packs, begin taking internally small quantities of
Olive Oil; about half a teaspoonful two to three to four times a day.
8. When the Packs have been given for five days, leave off a period of three days;
then begin again, applying the Packs for another five days.
9. Gradually, then, if the body will absorb it, increase the quantity of the Olive Oil,
until there have been thorough eliminations.
10. Then have, after the second series, two or three colonic irrigations, scientifically
given, gentle but thoroughly, until there is no mucous indicated in the discharges.
These should be at least seven to eight days apart. Use body temperature water,
so that there is not a strain upon the colon. To each gallon of water, put a heaping
teaspoonful of table salt and a level teaspoonful of baking soda, thoroughly
dissolved.
11. In the rinse water for the colonic put a tablespoonful of Glyco-Thymoline to the
quart of water.
12. Thus these will not cause too great an anxiety or be a great strain on the body.

41
INCONTINENCE CIRCULATING FILE

13. These do, and then after resting a period begin with osteopathic adjustments;
beginning with the corrections of a relaxing and not a stimulating nature. These
should be made specifically in the 3rd and 4th cervicals, as well as the upper
cervicals; 2nd and 3rd dorsal, 9th dorsal, and then throughout the sacral and
lumbar areas; relaxing the body thoroughly.
14. Throughout the periods of using the Oil Packs and taking the colonics, not a
great deal of solid foods should be taken but semi-solids and semi-liquids, including
a great deal of water cress, lettuce, celery, carrots, beets and the like. These should
be prepared in various manners. Prepare them oft with gelatin, for this carries a
vitamin necessary in body-forces.
15. When corrections are made and there is the beginning of the osteopathic
adjustments (and there should be at least fifteen) increase or supplement the diet
with quantities of A and D and B-1. These may be added better, as we find, in those
combinations that are prepared in One-A-Day A and D tablets and One-A-Day B
complex tablets.
16. Do these and we will get better results and conditions, better control over the
activities of this body.
17. Ready for questions.
18. (Q) Why cannot she talk?
(A) These are the disturbances with the sensory system from the central
nervous system. She can talk but there is the lack of ability to control emotions.
19. (Q) Can anything be done to ease her pain when these attacks occur?
(A) This may be done best by the administration of those things suggested.
When there are the severe attacks, there needs to be better eliminations, and these
will alleviate pain.
Do the things given.
20. We are through with this reading.

(For the osteopathic treatments, we would refer you to Dr. Marion Dick, 5041
Spruce St., Philadelphia, Penna., who has had experience with following the
readings and would be very interested in working on this case.
See directions [which were enclosed] for preparing Castor Oil Packs.)

B1. 7/14/43 Mother's letter: "It seems like a direct answer to prayer that Mr.
Sugrue's book about you has fallen into my hands. I finished reading it last night
and only wish we had known all this long ago for we do need help. We are alarmed
concerning our daughter, Mrs. [5110]... She has been ill and suffering for several
years, with very little relief from doctors. She is discouraged, naturally, and until I
read of you we had thought to take a last desperate fling with an operation in view.
Now, however, we earnestly hope you will give us a reading, and we are
postponing the surgery until we hear from you..."

B2. 7/25/43 Mother's letter: "...Various specialists have had their say about our
daughter [5110], taken their toll of our finances and arrived at hazy conclusions.
We've decided surgery is too indefinite, and if it is possible, prefer to await your
reading. It may be necessary to take her through the ... University Medical School
Clinic for a diagnosis, but unless she suffers too much and becomes highly
nervous, we'd like to wait for your suggestions... I believe there is some
maladjustment that the medical men do not find. In case this is going to be the
'straw that breaks the camel's back', let me know. I had no idea you were so over-
worked, and I don't wish to impose."

B3. 8/28/43 Mother's letter: "...My daughter will certainly be at her home, and will
want to know the cause for the painful kidney irritation and frequency, and what to
do for it and the constipation. Also with the peculiar back trouble she has had, plus
this kidney and bladder ailment, if she can safely have a child..."

pressures to force the uncomfortable urinary frequency? (3) And is it possible or

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 suggestions for help and relief of this body; answering the questions as I ask
them.
2. EC: It would be better if the body were in accord. Yes, we have the body, [5110].
3. As we find, there are disturbances. While the body has not fully recovered from
the effects of the subjugation of the mental and nerve changes in the central
nervous system, or from the effect of operative measures taken, the body needs to
be very quiet, for there are still the effects of the conditions, and there are not all the
adhesions broken yet. The tendency for the circulation, especially the superficial, to
become separated and form tumors through the body, has not been allayed.
4. We find, there should be the use of the Multiple Short-wave Oscillator here, and
then follow this by a thorough massage, gently, but thoroughly given. The massage
should be at least twice a week, while the Multiple Short-wave Oscillator would be
given once a week.
5. These, with keeping body-building forces, will bring better conditions for this
body.
6. Ready for questions.
7. (Q) What can be done to help her back?
(A) We have given this. The Multiple Short-wave Oscillator and the massage.
8. (Q) What causes the pressure to force the uncomfortable urinary frequency?
(A) The adhesions; the tying of certain muscular forces. With the Multiple Short-
wave and the massage, we should ease these conditions gradually, but we have a
hard proposition to combat in that, unless the Multiple Short-wave is successful in
breaking up the tendency for the lymph to produce and segregate, we will have
other formations coming, but we would keep the Multiple Short-wave and we would
keep the massage.
Keep the body quiet, to be sure, but there should be some activity.

9. (Q) Is it possible to have children?

(A) Don't think about children now; best to get self in shape so that this may
become possible if there is response to the conditions.

R1. 10/16/44 Mother's letter: "Last spring you gave us a reading concerning the
health of our daughter [5110], and it is time to report to you in order to ask for more
help. After some search we located a very good osteopathic physician here in…,
Dr. S. M. A. [Smalley, J. W., D.O.], who has a shortwave oscillating machine, and
following your suggestion she went to him for treatments. However, as yet she is no
better; in fact, she is worse. There is a theory to the effect that she had a light,
undiagnosed case of infantile paralysis when she was a child, leaving post polio
complications. We are fairly at our wits' end, and I wonder if you can suggest
anything to us. What impression do you get regarding the polio theory, and why is
there so much intestinal pain and urinal frequency as well as the back pains? How
can we get her up and around again?"

R2. 10/23/44 IMG's letter: "Due to Mr. Cayce's continued illness, we are unable to
make an appointment for your daughter at this time... In examining your daughter's
reading, the answer to the second question seems to indicate that the condition is
stubborn. We would therefore suggest that you continue with the treatments
outlined in her reading, provided Dr. S. M. A. is in favor of continuing the
treatment..."

B1. Born 5/24/90; res. Canada; married; one child; clergyman's wife.

B2. 9/17/43 Letter: "I have just finished reading with amazement and awe of the
wonderful cures which God is working through you in your home. To me, it has
brought renewed hope that I, too, may once more be able to take my place in the
world. Would you be willing to try to help me? I will be only too happy to send you
your fee, whenever you let me know what it is.
"Here is my case: I am the wife of a clergyman, and had always been active
in church and musical work until the fall of 1936. One day, I was taken in an auto on
a long trip, and when necessary, could not get to a toilet. Foolishly, I suffered in
silence for nearly two hours. By the time I got to a house, I was really ill, and in a
bad state of nerves. For weeks afterwards, I took medicine and used hot
fomentations, as I felt as if I were 'bursting'. About that same time, too, I had a lot of
church worry, and a bad shock when a dog bit me. For several nights, I couldn't
sleep. Then I had another shock, when I came across a nest of baby mice in my
davenport, and gathered them all up in my hand (over the hole). They squirmed
badly, and that night I had a worse time than ever. For weeks, I never slept without
sleeping-tablets, which upset my stomach; the doctor said it was mainly nervous
indigestion. I gradually developed this awful nervous bladder trouble, which has
ruined my life. I could not be away from a toilet for more than half an hour on end,
and in addition was up a dozen times every night. For many years, I had had a
slight bladder weakness, which was always aggravated by sexual intercourse, but
after the above mentioned events, I became so bad, that I had to give up the choir,
church meetings, etc., as I grew frantic to get to the toilet after 25 or 30 minutes.
You can be sure life has been a long torture, ever since. I am virtually a prisoner -
can't take a car or auto ride for longer than half an hour, and must find a toilet the
minute I go into a strange place. It is a terrible life.
"I have had all the best specialists in the country, and they say there is
nothing organically wrong; that is, it's just a 'nervous' condition; that I should try to
forget it, as if that were possible! In fact it has been so bad that I would like to have
ended it all. For several years, I have lived in hope that I might somehow come into
contact with some outstanding hypnotist, who could convince me that there was
nothing wrong - if, as the doctors say, there IS nothing wrong, - and that I really
could go for hours like normal people; but no such person has ever come my way. I
have tried to convince myself that it is just 'nonsense' on my part, and that I could
easily keep away from a toilet if I made up my mind to do so, but every time I try
this, I suffered without a minutes' respite for months... So I have given up trying,
and just stay home and go whenever the call comes. At least, I get peace between
times that day. As an illustration of how even a few minutes' wait hurts me - when I
was going over the bridge to my summer camp in an auto about two months ago,
the bridge opened for a boat, just as we came up to the span, and I had to sit an
extra 25 minutes. I was ill by the time I got to the camp, and it took me a week to
get over it - even in part. Oh, if you could cure me, how grateful I would be; for I
have almost given up hope of ever leading a normal life again. Trusting to hear from
you - I'll be counting the days, Very sincerely and hopefully yours... P.S. I used to

47
INCONTINENCE CIRCULATING FILE

do most of the solo work in the church choir, but my voice has gone now, too. That
loss has completed my heartbreak. If you will please register the letter which you
may send me, to make sure it will not get lost, I will pay all charges."

B3. 9/28/43 EC's letter: "I wish we could make your appointment immediately, but
you can very well understand that hundreds of people have been writing us, and
each one of course, feels theirs is the most important. As a person must become a
member of the Association before we can make an appointment, we can only take
them as we receive their membership blanks. Since you are the wife of a minister,
there is no charge. We will get this in as soon as possible. It is required that you will
fill out the blank and return it to us. We are 12 months in advance with
appointments."

B4. 10/16/43 Letter: "It was very kind of you to answer my letter so quickly and to
say there would be no charge because I am a clergyman's wife. I should have
answered you right away, but I was so excited about the prospect that I forgot I was
supposed to send in the blank as soon as possible. I have read your literature, and
will do so again. Meanwhile, I am looking forward to the day when you will be able
to help me."

B5. 10/28/43 EC's letter: "...Our first open period is the afternoon of 5/23. If you
accept this period, a few days before that time, let us have the exact address at
which you will be at that hour... Keep the hour in meditation and prayer."

B6. 5/10/44 Letter: "...I am so looking forward to some help. In case you have
destroyed the detailed letter I wrote you concerning my illness, I want to ask the
following questions: (1) What kind of stomach trouble have I, and how can I get rid
of it? It does go away for weeks at a time, then some unsuspecting article of food
upsets me again. (2) How can I get over the terrible nervous bladder trouble which I
have, and which keeps me from all meetings and places of entertainment, unless I
have access to a toilet at all times. I can only wait about 1/2 hour. Any worry makes
it worse, also the least draught or chill. (3) I have lost my voice, singing voice, since
I had the above troubles, the resonance has gone. I sing flat and get tired. The
nerves in my stomach become affected, and I have had to stop singing altogether.
As it was all religious work I did, I miss it very much, and I know the church does,
too. (4) My whole nervous system is in bad shape. I can't stand anything out of the
ordinary. Can I do anything about it? (5) Is there any chance of my getting cured of
all these ills, or should I just quietly submit till the end?"

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 suggestions for help and relief of this body; answering the questions, as I ask
them.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [5146].
3. As we find, there are disorders, which are preventing the better normal
functioning. These, as we find, are rather a complication of disturbances. There are
those tendencies for super acidity, especially through the alimentary canal, stomach
disorders, and intestinal disturbances.
4. These naturally, with the very nature of them, with such poor eliminations of the
drosses and with the excesses, have produced some kidney disturbance also and
much more of an excess of the activities of the kidneys; thus producing a very bad
bladder disorder.
5. These, as we find, partially arise from subluxations in the 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th
dorsals which have gradually prevented sufficient nerve energies from the activity of
the glands of assimilation and the better functioning of the liver, as related to the
creating of the gastric juices which assist through the activity of pancreas, spleen
and the gall duct to supply those energies for proper assimilation in the body.
6. The effect of most of the other disturbances is indicated occasionally in a rash,
the tired feeling, disorders in the extremities, and as of neuritic reaction, all arise
from these disturbances as have been indicated.
7. First, in making applications for corrections:
8. We would begin and for at least two periods, of three days each, use the Castor
Oil Packs, three thicknesses of flannel well saturated with Castor Oil; applied over
the liver and gall duct area and down the right side of the abdomen, even to the
caecum. Apply this directly to the body. After covering with cloths to prevent soiling
of linens, do apply the electric pad. Do this for an hour each day - for three days.
9. Then take internally small quantities of Olive Oil, half a teaspoonful about every
hour until there is good evacuation from the alimentary canal. These may tend to
make for more activity in the bladder and kidneys.
10. But apply Glyco-Thymoline Packs over the kidneys and bladder, across the
back, and during the same periods that the Oil Packs are given, but the day after,
during the periods of taking internally the Olive Oil, apply the Glyco-Thymoline Pack
with cotton cloth three to four thicknesses saturated with the Glyco-Thymoline.
Place this over the kidney area. Also place a small cloth lower in the abdomen over
the pubic center, a flannel cloth, not necessarily so large.
11. Take internally a few drops of Glyco-Thymoline daily, at least two to six drops in
the water two, three times a day as the water is taken.
12. After the rest periods from the first series, the next week begin the same day as
before and for three days apply the Oil Packs, followed by the pad over the area of
the kidneys, as well as the bladder, following through in the same manner.
13. Then have at least twelve to fourteen osteopathic adjustments with special
reference to the segments from which the kidneys, liver and bladder are active.

14. In the diet, keep away from those things that cause a stress on the kidneys,
such as sweets, cakes, pastries, pies or the like. Eliminate these entirely from the
diet. Do include often-raw fresh vegetables in the diet. These often prepared with
gelatin are well for the body.
15. Do these and we will bring better conditions for this body, [5146].
16. Ready for questions.
17. (Q) I have lost my voice, singing voice since I had the above trouble the
resonance has gone.
(A) This treatment, as we find, will aid in the body's gaining better control of all
activities of the sympathetic nervous system. For these taxations, through the
poisons as well as the actual pain through alimentary canal, have been the sources,
and the acidity through the system. This will help in these directions.
18. We are through with this reading.

BACKGROUND OF READING 5324-1 F 34

B1. 4/4/44 Letter: "In Jan. 1940 I became unable to walk and also had lost
feeling from waist down. All this had come over me within about two weeks time. I
had a spinal puncture and was in a hospital under the care of Dr. [...] Dr. [...] neuro-
surgeon and various other leading doctors of ..., Calif. Dr. [...] finally decided that I
had transverse myelitis - the previous year I had been rather tired and rundown with
a new home and baby. After coming home I felt rather well and thought my general
health was improved though the paralysis level stayed about the same. But in June
my hands and arms began to tingle and get numb the way my feet had six months
before. My husband took me to the ... Hospital at once and I was put under the care
of Dr. [...]. I was also under the observation of Dr. [...]. They treated me with shots
and Vitamin E. After three weeks I ret'd home, my hands improved, and the
diagnosis was MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS. Since then I have had no serious 'downs'. I
am very anxious to walk again and go on with my normal life."

TEXT OF READING 5324-1 F 34

This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at the office of the Association, Arctic
Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 5th day of July, 1944, in accordance with
request made by the self - Mrs. [5324], new Associate Member of the Ass'n for
Research and Enlightenment, Inc., recommended by the book, THERE IS A
RIVER.
PRESENT
Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Jeanette Fitch, Stenos.
READING
Time of Reading Set bet. 3:30 to 4:30 P.M. Eastern War Time. ..., Calif.
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 suggestions for help and relief of this body; answering the questions, as I ask
them.
2. EC: Yes, this is a very sad condition. These, as we find, are very serious
disturbances. These arise from conditions concerning that the body gives in giving
life.
3. If there would be any material aid in this physical condition, we must alter
somewhat the attitude, spiritually and mentally. And yet these disturbances in the
present are going so rapidly, these will necessitate that there be a real change, if
there would be continuation of activities in this present experience.
4. We would have the application of a massage, using the Wet Cell Appliance
carrying Gold, Silver, Iodine and Camphor. We would prepare this, charging the
Iodine in the solution. This would be at least two pounds of Copper Sulfate, no
charcoal, the rest of the ingredients in regular order.
5. Then there would be the use of the Chloride of Gold to the lumbar axis, the
umbilical and lacteal duct or, on this body, the width of four fingers from the naval
center directly to the right and one finger up; the small plate at the lumbar axis. This
would be given for thirty minutes every third day.
6. The Silver, a two percent solution of one ounce of same and one ounce of
distilled water, and one ounce of alcohol added to same to make three ounces of

52
INCONTINENCE CIRCULATING FILE

the solution, would be used once every third day, half an hour; the large plate at the
umbilical plexus, the small plate at the lower portion of the 9th dorsal center, for
thirty minutes.
7. Each one of these would follow the other, but keep them all very clean. Do have
the connections taken away when not in use. Do connect at least twenty minutes
before using.
8. Follow same with a massage using Peanut Oil.
9. This do. This offers, with the attitude of wishing, of desiring helpful forces, not for
self, but for the baby.
10. Do this and we will make better conditions for the body.
11. Ready for questions.
12. (Q) What was the cause of this condition?
(A) Glands. As there was not the proper consideration given during the period of
gestation, it has taken the vitality. As has been given, this is what the body gives.
13. (Q) What can I do to help in regaining the use of the voluntary muscles of my
bladder and bowels?
(A) As has been indicated, use the vibrations from the properties indicated, in
the various portions of the body, following with massage along the spine and the
limbs. These will aid in gaining, or will offer the aid in gaining, if the attitude is kept
in a way of Creative Forces.
14. We are through with this reading.

Stop your "going problem" in days with a breakthrough Far East blend
Health Sciences Institute, December 2008
by Melissa Hickle
Have you been missing out on time spent with family and friends? Skipping your
granddaughter's soccer games because you know it will be a couple of hours and you
just can't risk it? Clenching your fists every time someone tells a joke, because even
one chuckle could leave you mortified? For people with urinary incontinence, the
bladder can be like a ticking time bomb.
Maybe you haven't even talked to your doctor about urinary problems. It's just
too embarrassing to bring it up. After all, isn't incontinence a normal part of aging?
(Quick answer: no.) Maybe you don't even want to read this article. Maybe you'd rather
just put it down and forget that it reminded you of your daily struggle. Or maybe this will
mark the end of your embarrassment and discomfort. A couple of weeks ago, I got a
phone call from Jim English, the head of Tango Advanced Nutrition. He wanted to tell
me about FloControl – a product he first thought was a complete failure, but has turned
out to be one of the most effective formulas his team has created.
When Jim thought FloControl was ready, he started looking for people to try it.
Putting the word out, he heard back from about 40 people and finally ended up with 15
women who were willing to put the formula to the test.
Knowing it's a sensitive subject, Jim approached his 15 subjects carefully. But
he was clear – he needed straight answers. So the women signed contracts, promising
they'd give their feedback at the end of the trial.
But not one of the women responded. Jim tried to reach out – but no luck.
Phone calls and letters went unanswered. Finally, he gave up. "I figured it just didn't
work," Jim told me. He shelved FloControl and forgot about it.
Two months later, the phone rang.
It was a woman desperate to get her hands on more FloControl. "I can't find it
on your website and when I call Tango they don't know what I'm talking about," she
cried. Jim explained that they weren't carrying it – that they had nothing to go on
because they hadn't heard back from anyone.
That's when she told him it worked. After four days on FloControl, she'd started
regaining control over her bladder. And in two weeks, she was in complete control.
Then, when she'd run out, her condition slowly started to return. She begged Jim to
carry the product that had changed her life.
Thanks to Jim's mystery woman, FloControl made it to Tango's product line.
Since then, the people who've tried it – women and men – have been returning to the
lives they'd been missing out on.
I'll tell you in a moment about the FloControl formula. First, let's look at what the
mainstream isn't doing to help you. In fact, the drugs that are prescribed for UI can
send you down the road to a nursing home. And that's the last place you want to be.

The mainstream "solution" that can rob you of your mind

Of course, the mainstream has lots of answers for the problem of incontinence.
For urge incontinence, you could go for neuromodulation, a treatment that
involves stimulation of nerves that go from the spine to the bladder. A device is
implanted via surgery – it's expensive and you could end up needing adjustments to the
device or all-out replacement.

54
INCONTINENCE CIRCULATING FILE

In women, stress incontinence can be lessened with a vaginal device called a

pessary. It's a stiff ring that presses against the wall of the vagina, helping to reposition
the urethra. If you have one inserted, you have to watch out for more frequent vaginal
or urinary tract infections.
Or you could have repeat injections of bulking agents like collagen and carbon
spheres. They'll make the tissues around the bladder neck and urethra thicker, closing the
bladder opening to reduce stress incontinence. The body slowly eliminates these bulking
agents, and you'd need repeat injections. And you could have an allergic reaction to the
injection.
There's always the option of using a catheter to empty your bladder. Not
interested?
Well, how about drugs? People spent $3 billion on UI drugs in 2007, so they
must be doing something right. Let's see. There are alpha-adrenergic which are
prescribed to strengthen the smooth muscles around the urethra. They could be helpful
for mild stress incontinence, but aren't without side effects: agitation, insomnia, and
anxiety. They also can't be used by people with diabetes – one of the major causes of
UI.
Then we have the really disturbing type. Anticholinergics like Ditropan, Oxytrol,
and Detrol interfere with the actions of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACh). ACh
controls the muscles that control bladder contractions.
Interfering with it can be helpful because it relaxes the bladder muscle, and drug
companies pro claim the drugs inhibit involuntary bladder contractions and delay the
initial urge to urinate.
Sounds helpful, right? And you'd always expect side effects. In this case, you're
looking at a familiar list – dry mouth, dry eyes, headache, constipation, dizziness,
restlessness. Then there's the big one. ACh drugs can actually cause serious mental
problems, including hallucinations and loss of memory.
A U.S. Navy neurologist, Dr. Jack Tsao, started looking into the more serious
side effects of ACh drugs after meeting a 73-year-old woman who began hallucinating
conversations with dead relatives shortly after starting on a common ACh drug. When
she stopped taking the drug, the hallucinations stopped.
This launched an eight-year study evaluating 870 patients. The average age
was 75, with 80% taking ACh drugs for various reasons – high blood pressure, asthma,
Parkinson's disease, and Ul. The ACh drugs for UI were among the most potent and
most frequently taken of all those used in the study.
The people who took ACh drugs had a 50% faster rate of cognitive decline as
compared with the people who didn't take any. Even when other risk factors like age
were considered, the link was still found. Dr Tsao concluded, "It may be better to use
diapers and be able to think clearly than the other way around."
But why settle for that? With FloControl, you don't have to.

Keep your dignity – and your mind – with an all-natural herbal formula
FloControl is a blend of traditional Chinese herbs that have long been known to
enhance urinary function. Together, the herbs in FloControl attack UI from many
angles.
The fruit of the Cherokee rose – unusual in its high concentration of vitamins,
minerals, and essential fatty acids-has long been used to treat UI and high urinary
frequency.

55
INCONTINENCE CIRCULATING FILE

Alpinia, native to tropical parts of Asia, is part of the ginger family. The fleshy
flowers, which are part of the FloControl formula, are known for their action against
several UI problems: frequent urination, dribbling, and nighttime urination.
Celebrated for 2,000 years of Chinese medicine, the Asiatic cornelian cherry
addresses excessive urination and urinary frequency. Its effect is enhanced by cured
rehmannia, another herb in FloControl.
Licorice root, an anti-inflammatory herb, soothes muscle spasms and has been
shown in animal studies to decrease urine output. Then there are the herbs that lower
blood sugar, decreasing one of the major causes of U1. In one study on diabetic
animals, the fungi Cordyceps produced a significant drop in blood-sugar level and
increased the circulating insulin level.
Cured rehmannia, one of the most popular tonic herbs in Chinese medicine, has
a similar effect – it produced a significant decrease in blood sugar in a study on rats.
Panax ginseng, used medicinally for 5,000 years, is a popular treatment for type
II diabetes and for many other diseases. Much of the research echoes the same
conclusion reached in a 2006 study. Panax ginseng lowers blood sugar considerably.
On their own, these herbs address individual symptoms of UL but together,
they're pretty incredible. FloControl restores bladder strength and muscle tone,
reducing the need for frequent urination. No more multiple nighttime trips to the
bathroom.
FloControl helps stop the leakages you might fear every time you sneeze or
laugh. And in men, it actually enhances, muscle tone to reduce "dribbling." When Jim
finally started hearing back from people about how well FloControl was working, the
results were encouraging.
Out of 15 people suffering from incontinence, 11 saw a complete cure and four
saw improvement after 20-40 doses of FloControl.
Relief in just one night
Understandably, not many people wanted to discuss their experiences with
FloControl. But I was able to find a few people who were willing to talk. Sheryl's in her
mid-60s. Her weak bladder muscles had her getting up three times a night and making
note of every bathroom she passed.
Within two weeks of starting Flocontrol, she started sleeping through the night
again. She doesn't have to stop in the woods nearly as often when she goes hiking.
And she can even have a cup of coffee in the morning. On FloControl, she felt
confident enough to go on a two-week Mediterranean cruise with her husband.
The moment I called Vincent, he made sure I knew I was talking to "the ultimate
cynic." For about five years, he had been feeling like "the spigot wasn't all the way off"
after urinating. The constant sense of urgency was becoming intolerable, and he was
getting up three, sometimes four, times a night.
His urologist put him on a couple of drugs, but he was still having problems. He
didn't expect FloControl to work, but he didn't see any harm in trying. The cynic is now
a believer. The very first time he took it, he only got up once during the night. His sense
of urgency has improved, and he's so happy with FloControl that he confesses he's a
little afraid of running out.
And then I found myself on the phone with an HSI member named Dana. She
used to have "all the bladder problems anyone could have," she said. Dana's been on
FloControl for a couple of weeks now, and she reports that it's "helped immensely."

She's no longer wearing Poise pads during the day and has been gaining more control
with each passing day on FloControl.
When I first talked to Jim about FloControl, he pointed out a very important
benefit of the formula. Urinary incontinence is the number one trigger for people
sending their aging parents into extended care.
If you are caring for an older parent, FloControl can extend the amount of time
she spends living independently. Ordering information is below.

Different types, different causes, one result: embarrassment and discomfort
If you're struggling with UI, you're not alone. The numbers are in the millions, with women
experiencing it twice as often as men. But as I said before, it's not inevitable. UI is a medical problem.
It's all about the muscles and nerves that help to hold or release urine. When you go to the
bathroom, muscles in the wall of the bladder contract, forcing urine into the urethra. At the same
time, muscles surrounding the urethra relax, letting the urine pass out of the body.
There are several ways this process can go wrong. If the very thought of coughing,
laughing, or sneezing leaves you in fear, you may have stress incontinence. The "scaffolding" that
supports the bladder in women – the pelvic floor muscles, the vagina, and ligaments – can be
injured, during childbirth for example. If these structures weaken, the bladder moves downward.
This prevents muscles around the urethra from squeezing as tightly as they should. As a
result, urine can leak into the urethra during moments of physical stress. This can also happen if the
squeezing muscles weaken – sometimes due to lowered estrogen levels.
If you suddenly feel a strong urge to urinate, followed by losing urine without having time to
get to the bathroom, you may have urge incontinence. It's commonly caused by bladder
contractions occurring at the wrong time. Abnormal nerve signals could be to blame – possibly due
to Parkinson's, MS, Alzheimer's, stroke, or injury.
With urge incontinence, your bladder can empty during sleep, after drinking a small amount
of water, or even when you touch water (like when you're washing dishes).
A third kind of UI is overactive bladder. Abnormal nerves send signals to the bladder at the
wrong time, causing the muscles to squeeze without warning. With this, you might be urinating eight
or more times a day or two or more times a night.
Then there's overflow incontinence, which is rare in women. When the bladder doesn't
empty properly, it can spill over. Weak bladder muscles, which can be caused by nerve damage
due to diabetes or other disease, can cause overflow incontinence. So can a blocked urethra –
tumors and urinary stones can be the culprits there.
There's one cause of UI that is often overlooked or underestimated: high blood sugar. One
of the key symptoms of hyperglycemia (excessive sugar in the bloodstream) is excessive urination.
When the body senses there is too much sugar in the blood, it tries to dispose of the excess.
Diabetics and people with Metabolic Syndrome are at higher risk of UI because poor blood
sugar control is part of these disorders. A 2008 study showed that long-standing diabetes causes
paralysis of muscles around the bladder. Another recent study of diabetic patients found bladder
dysfunction in 74% of the men and 59% of the women in the study.
High blood sugar is a special concern for men because it can contribute to a swollen
prostate. This can have men getting up three or four times a night to urinate. It can also cause
hesitancy in urination, reduced force of urinary stream, and urinary obstruction. A recent study
found that men with elevated blood-sugar levels are three times more likely to have an enlarged
prostate.

Common questions

Cayce's treatment plans seamlessly integrated natural therapies and dietary modifications with contemporary medical advice, such as using physiotherapy techniques like massage and osteopathy alongside radium applications and dietary adjustments. This holistic approach aimed to not only address physical symptoms but also consider the psychosomatic and lifestyle factors contributing to the ailments. Through personalized readings, he encouraged a comprehensive treatment protocol that respected both natural and conventional medical practices .

Cayce observed that nervous system disturbances contributed significantly to bladder control issues, likely due to nerve impingements and chemical imbalances. These issues were linked to the overactivity of the kidneys and frequent urination, suggesting a somatic relationship where nervous tension exacerbates bladder dysfunction. His approach involved coordinating massages and chiropractic interventions to alleviate nerve stress and improve muscular control .

Cayce suggested using osteopathic corrective forces for the lower dorsal, lumbar, and cervical areas, alongside massages with warmed mixtures of mutton suet, turpentine, and camphor across the kidney and abdominal areas. This approach aimed to coordinate the body's systems, reducing inflammation and pus formation by enhancing circulation and easing nerve impingements .

The treatment for prostatitis involved using high vibratory forces of radium to improve blood supply and increase vibratory forces in dis-eased areas. This was complemented with massages over the sacral and lumbar areas using a mixture of mutton suet, turpentine, camphor, and tincture of benzoin. The massage helped in absorption and prevented irritation in the kidneys and bladder by supporting the elimination processes through increased vibratory activity .

Cayce identified psychosomatic connections where emotional and mental stressors could lead to physical ailments. He suggested integrating music and the arts into therapeutic regimens to relieve stress and facilitate healing connections between the mind and body. These arts were prescribed to create harmony and balance within emotional states, thereby influencing physical health positively .

The recommendation was not to focus on childbearing at the time, due to the current health complications primarily involving lymphatic issues and nerve dysfunctions. The underlying rationale was to first stabilize and improve the individual's health condition to ensure that future attempts at childbearing would not be compromised by these unresolved health issues. It was suggested that addressing the root causes through consistent treatments would potentially allow for childbearing once health improved .

Short-wave oscillation treatments were seen as crucial for breaking up lymph production and segregation tendencies that could lead to further complications. These treatments, when combined with appropriate massages, aimed to enhance the body's ability to manage lymph flow and prevent further formations. The combined effort was needed for successfully addressing stubborn and chronic conditions by promoting lymphatic drainage and improving circulation .

The liver was identified as a central organ affecting multiple systemic issues, as it plays a key role in circulation and assimilation processes linked to the lungs, heart, and kidneys. Improper liver function could lead to overactivity of the kidneys and bladder. Interventions included applying hot Castor Oil packs over the liver area to enhance absorption and using olive oil internally to improve liver activities, aiming to balance and restore systemic function .

The patient's diet adjustments included eliminating sugar and white bread, using saccharin as a sweetener, and consuming a special whole wheat bread containing mineral oil. Additionally, the diet focused on meats, vegetables, fruits, milk, and cheese, with very little other starch. These adjustments were intended to improve the patient's condition by reducing the intake of simple carbohydrates and providing essential nutrients, aligning with the naturopathic treatments he was receiving .

Physiotherapy was pivotal in managing prostatitis by enhancing circulation and reducing irritation through targeted massage therapies using specific compounds. It complemented radiative treatments by increasing the efficacy of vibratory forces within the body. By incorporating physiotherapy with radium and specific chemical mixtures, the treatment sought to relieve inflammation and prevent further complications by harmonizing bodily processes through enhanced absorption and circulation .
