I am new here and seeking ideas and resources to aid my recovery.

A stroke I suffered in 2000 left me with dizziness and vertigo

problems. The last five months have been especially difficult, and I'm

searching for self-healing options and gentle modalities that could

work for me.

The last five or six months have been especially difficult, with lots

of dizziness and vertigo issues, as well as visual/sensory problems. I

had profound reactions to reiki and the divine coding, and I'm trying

to find a gentler modality to help calm my vestibular and central

nervous systems so I can feel comfortable in my body again.

I recently had the chance to work with a crystal healer who placed two

crystals in my room (not even on my person) and that was too intense

for me as well.

Hopefully someone here will have an idea as to where I can start. I

was awoken at 5 a.m. this morning when the barometer started to move

-- and that was enough to agitate my vestibular system and jar me from

my sleep.

I'll welcome any replies.

Are you open to any supplementation for your recovery from the stroke or are you

looking only for body work?

Thanks for the reply. I'm not yet at a point where I can tolerate

supplements. As for bodywork, massage, reflexology, acupuncture,

cranial work, reiki... all of those things were and still are way too

intense for me at this point.

I'm still searching for ideas as to what might work. There have to be

additional gentle energies that I could use to help settle my

situation, but I don't know what they are.

I'll welcome any further replies.

---very sensitive by the sounds of it

could try spiritual healing

here is a some info its long but useful

Stroke

A stroke or brain attack occurs when a blood clot blocks a blood

vessel or artery, or when a blood vessel breaks; this can interrupt

blood flow to areas of the brain. When a stroke occurs, it kills brain

cells in the immediate area. Cells usually die within minutes to a

few hours after the stroke starts.

When brain cells die, they release chemicals that set off a chain

reaction called. This chain reaction endangers brain cells in a

larger, surrounding area of brain tissue for which the blood supply is

affected. Without prompt medical treatment this larger area of brain

cells will also die. Given the rapid pace of the chain reaction,

intervention treatment needs to be done in about six hours. Beyond

this time reestablishment of blood flow and administration of

protective agents may fail to help and can potentially cause further

damage.

When brain cells die, control of abilities, which that area of the

brain once controlled can be severely damaged. This includes sometimes

speech, movement, and memory. The specific abilities affected depend

on where in the brain the stroke occurs and on the size of the area, a

small stroke may cause minor effects such as weakness of an arm or

leg. Larger strokes may cause paralysis on one side and or lose his/

ability to express and process language. Some people recover

completely from minor strokes, while other people lose their lives to

very severe strokes. If any of the symptoms are experienced immediate

medical help must be sought. The brain is the most delicate organ in

the body. To give the best chance of limiting damage, brain attacks

should be heeded even more urgently than heart attacks, "

Brain Attack or stroke Means Medical Emergency

Seek emergency treatment immediately after any symptoms, this is

crucial because every minute lost from the onset of symptoms to the

time of treatment, cuts into the limited window of opportunity for

intervention. The majority of patients don't report to the emergency

room until more than 24 hours after the onset of stroke symptoms. The

longer the delay in patient presentation, the more damage a stroke can

and will do and recovery can be much more of a problem.

Many people don't even know it when they are having a stroke. The

University of Cincinnati reported that 52 percent of their acute

stroke patients were unaware they were experiencing a stroke. So learn

the symptoms and be aware of others.

Some facts relating to the problem

Stroke is largely preventable

Stroke requires emergency treatment

Stroke can happen to anyone at any age

Stroke is a " Brain Attack

Stroke recovery continues throughout life

58% of stroke patients do not seek medical treatment until 24 hours or

more after the onset.

17% of adults over age 50 can't name a single stroke symptom.

Symptoms include

1.Sudden numbness or weakness of face, arm or leg, especially on one

side of the body.

2.Sudden confusion, trouble speaking or understanding.

3.Sudden trouble seeing in one or both eyes.

4.Sudden trouble walking, dizziness, loss of balance or coordination.

5.Sudden severe headache with no known cause.

6.Sudden nausea, fever and vomiting distinguished from a viral illness

by the speed of onset (minutes or hours vs. several days).

7.Brief loss of consciousness or period of decreased consciousness

(fainting, confusion, convulsions or coma came and went quickly.

Three quarters of a million people will suffer a stroke this year. If

you experience sudden one-sided numbness, difficulty speaking, trouble

seeing, loss of balance or a sudden severe headache, even if just for

a few moments, don't delay. Treat it as a medical emergency and get to

hospital. Stroke is preventable, and if caught in time, treatable.

The new stroke people (neurologists, neuroradiologists, emergency

medicine physicians and their colleagues) are dedicated to emergent

stroke treatment.

Of huge progress is the Cincinnati trial, which attempted to increase

response time for treatment.

11 Cincinnati hospitals collaborated to form an urgent stroke response

system incorporating a rapid response team. Following these changes,

the time which people came for treatment was impressive: 39 percent of

stroke patients went for treatment within 90 minutes, 59 percent came

within three hours and 66 percent presented within six hours .

Similar collaborative approaches have been successful in San Diego

(University of California at San Diego), Raleigh-Durham (Duke

University), Houston (University of Texas) and other clinical trial

locations.

More must be done in the UK to make people more aware and thus lesson

the damage done by delay.

WHAT IS POSSIBLE

& #61623; 39% presented within 90 minutes

& #61623; 59% presented within 3 hours

& #61623; 66% presented within 6 hours

Researchers have learned exactly why brain cells die during stroke.

Most strokes have a core area of cell death in which blood flow is so

drastically reduced that the cells usually cannot recover. This

threshold seems to occur when blood flow is 20 percent of normal or

less. Without protective drugs, nerve cells will be damaged within a

few minutes. Surrounding the core is another area of tissue in which

blood flow is between 20 and 50 percent of normal. Cells in this area

are endangered, but not yet irreversibly damaged.

Without adequate blood supply, brain cells lose their ability to

produce energy -- particularly adenosine triphosphate (ATP).When this

energy failure occurs, brain cells become damaged and will die if

critical limits are reached.

Researchers believe there are an immense number of mechanisms at work

causing brain cell damage and death following energy failure. Each of

these mechanisms represents a potential route for intervention.

One of the ways brain cells respond to energy failure is by elevating

the concentration of calcium. Worsening this and driving the

concentrations to dangerous levels is the process of excitotoxicity,

in which brain cells release excessive amounts of glutamate, a

neurotransmitter. This stimulates chemical and electrical activities

in receptors on other brain cells, which leads to the degradation and

destruction of vital cellular structures.

Brain cells ultimately die as a result of the actions of

calcium-activated molecules (enzymes which digest cell proteins),

lipases (enzymes which digest cell membranes) and free radicals formed

as a result of the process.

This exciting knowledge is leading to unprecedented drug development

activity. This type of brain cell injury leads researchers to focus on

the development of calcium antagonists, glutamate antagonists,

antioxidants and other types of protective agents. Many are in the

last phase of clinical trials. The only drug that has received

approval for acute stroke treatment is a recombinant form of t-PA

(tissue plasminogen activator).

However, stroke experts predict that no single drug will be able to

completely protect the brain during stroke, more likely, a combination

of agents will be necessary for full recovery potential.

Nearly 4 million people in the United States who have survived a

stroke or brain attack are living with the after-effects.

There's much we don't know about how the brain compensates for damage

caused by stroke or brain attack. Some brain cells may be temporarily

damaged, not killed, and may resume functioning. In some cases, the

brain can reorganize its own functioning. Sometimes, a region of the

brain " takes over " for a region damaged by the stroke. Stroke

survivors sometimes experience remarkable and unanticipated

recoveries. General recovery guidelines show:

10 percent of stroke survivors recover almost completely.

25 percent recover with minor impairments.

40 percent experience moderate to severe impairments requiring special

care.

10 percent require care in a nursing home.

15 percent die shortly after the stroke.

With patients, who are stable, rehabilitation may begin within two

days after the stroke has occurred.

The stroke patient's world, once comprehensible and manageable, can be

transformed into a confusing, intimidating and hostile environment.

The intellect, sensation, perception and movement, which are developed

over the course of a lifetime and which so characterize us as people

are the very abilities most affected by stroke. Stroke can rob people

of the most basic methods of interacting with the world.

The brain is divided into four parts: the right hemisphere the left

hemisphere, the cerebellum and the brain stem.

Right-Hemisphere Stroke

The right hemisphere of the brain controls the movement of the left

side of the body. It also controls analytical and perceptual tasks,

such as judging distance, size, speed, or position and seeing how

parts are connected to wholes.

A stroke in the right hemisphere often causes paralysis in the left

side of the body. Survivors of right-hemisphere strokes may also have

problems with their spatial and perceptual abilities. This may cause

them to misjudge distances (leading to a fall) or be unable to guide

their hands to pick up an object, button a shirt or tie their shoes.

Along with their impaired ability to judge spatial relationships,

survivors of right-hemisphere strokes often have judgment difficulties

that show up in their behavior. This can lead them into grave

difficulties, thinking they can do all the tasks as before.

Survivors of right-hemisphere strokes may also " forget " or " ignore "

objects or people on their left side.

Some survivors of right-hemisphere strokes will experience problems

with short-term memory. Although they may be able to recount a visit

to the seashore that took place 30 years ago, they may be unable to

remember what they had for breakfast that morning.

Left-Hemisphere Stroke

The left hemisphere of the brain controls the right side of the body.

It also controls speech and language abilities for most people. A

left-hemisphere stroke often causes paralysis of the right side of the

body.

Someone who has had a left-hemisphere stroke may also develop speech

and language problems. These problems can be highly specific,

affecting only one component of the patient's ability to communicate,

such as the ability to move their speech-related muscles to talk

properly. The same person may be completely unimpaired when it comes

to writing, reading or understanding speech. Patients who have had a

left-hemisphere stroke often develop a slow and cautious behavioral

style. They may need frequent instruction and feedback to complete tasks.

Finally, patients with left-hemisphere stroke may develop memory

problems similar to those of right-hemisphere stroke survivors. These

problems can include shortened retention spans, difficulty in learning

new information and problems in conceptualizing and generalizing.

Cerebellar Stroke

The cerebellum controls many of our reflexes and much of our balance

and coordination. A stroke that takes place in the cerebellum can

cause abnormal reflexes of the head and torso, coordination and

balance problems, dizziness, nausea and vomiting.

Brain Stem Stroke

Strokes that occur in the brain stem are especially devastating. The

brain stem is the area of the brain that controls all of our

involuntary, " life-support " functions, such as breathing rate, blood

pressure and heartbeat. The brain stem also controls eye movements,

hearing, speech and swallowing. Since impulses generated in the

brain's hemispheres must travel through the brain stem on their way to

the arms and legs, patients with a brain stem stroke may also develop

paralysis in one or both sides of the body. This is particularly

disturbing.

Cayce treatment

This is of such length and detail a physician may be needed to

interpret correctly

William Mcgary MD research director of the Cayce association makes

quite a few comments from the Cayce viewpoint.

Stroke is usually associated with high blood pressure .In the

malignant form there is a sudden massive hemorrhage in the brain

tissue causing a sudden loss of consciousness and coma.

Stroke is a disease process involving primarily the circulation

system, this includes the make up of the cells the substances within

the blood, the flow, the circulation, the pressures throughout the

circulation system, the integrity of the vessel walls .

The control of the circularity system as a whole lies within the

sympathetic nervous system. Factors, which undermine the circularity

system, are Poisons throughout the liver, spleen and pancreas brought

on by poor elimination's, improper diet and assimilation and over

exertion – too much for the body to stand. Incoordination between the

deep and the superficial circularity system is by itself a major

factor.As pressures vary throughout the system depending upon the

health of the body there might be swelling of the arteries, blood

vessels or disturbances in the lower spinal cord or weakening of the

blood vessels of the brain. Increased pressures of the system may

bring on symptoms such as pain and or breathlessness .The approach by

Cayce varied depending upon the severity of the case and if

consciousness was lost and if people were coming to him after several

months after the stroke took place.

Several principles were outlined.

1.Keep the circulation from progressing to a more toxic level.

2.Eliminate poisons that have accumulated and stimulate the

elimination systems.

3. Remove pressures on the sympathetic centers and the locomotory centers.

4. Aid the body in rebuilding to normal.

Mental Attitudes were also very important and if the person has no

real desire to regain good health and is not willing to be persistent

and consistent little can be done.

The general regime for acute stroke would follow upon these lines.

1. Enemas perhaps two or three times the first day then daily thereafter.

2. Osteopathic adjustments to bring balance in the sympathetic and to

stimulate elimination gently at first and more vigorously as healing

progresses.

3.

4. Balance to the body should be achieved by painting of the skin

followed by hot Epsom salt packs or massage of the spine and the

extremities in a general manner. As strength is regained activity

should be increased.

5.

6. Diet very light foods such as juices, coddled egg, toast or food

well cooked as in a broth .As strength is regained simple foods should

be given .No fried foods no pork, no white flour or white sugar

substances. Spaghetti, tomatoes and white bread should never be

combined. Fish fowl and lamb are the best meats. Cereals should never

be taken the same day as citrus fruits.

Review of the files.

592-5male75

Cayce found a weakening of the circularity system, in the walls which

was allowing oozing through the wall thus forming a form of a stroke.

These conditions have arisen from an excess of poisons and other

weakening forces and the lack of proper flow or circulation. Use

things, which would tend to thin or relax the blood flow such as

enemas, sweats and rubs –these would be better to use.

The rubs should use oils as pine, or an equal amount of olive oil with

peanut oil. The baths should not be dry heat but the normal regular baths.

1097-7male 54

Cayce found poisons, which depleted the activity of the eliminating

system, which produced a pressure in the circulation as to produce

seepage in the arterial system. Cayce cautioned that if this person

had done something about it sooner greater relief could have come

about. For the lesion has advanced to the point where there is

pressure in the brain center rather than along the cerebrospinal

system. But if applications were followed well, there might be

advances made with this person. If care is taken in the diet, delay or

a total avoidance of a reoccurrence will be achieved. Every third day

massage the cerebrospinal system with a compound prepared thus.

To 0.5 gallon of white gasoline [not that which has been treated with

other chemicals,] add in this order camphor gum 0.5oz, Pure olive oil

1 pint. Shake these together every time a massage was given. Give this

with an attitude of helpfulness to the person not as a chore. Begin

massage at the base of the brain using a circular motion along the

cerebrospinal system down to at least the 9th dorsal on either side

and down the center of the spine, then from the coccyx to the 9th

dorsal and especially over the lumbar area and then a circular motion

over the arm.

Use each day the wet cell preferably in the afternoon when the body is

tired the wet cell should carry gold [2grains to each oz of distilled

water] for 30 mins, attach to the wrist and the ankle. Always attach

the anode, which is carrying the gold solution last. Always attach the

gold solution to the side of the body which has been affected or which

lacks activity either the wrist or ankle on the side affected and

alternate the two. Change the solution every 28 days but change the

gold solution every 14 days .Do not leave the connections attached

when not in use.

Diet as already outlined earlier.

1187-5female75

Cayce found a breaking of the cellular force of the body. If the

breakage is kept from forming clots or being carried to the brain this

may soon pass off if there is quiet for the body. This arises from the

lumbar in the axis of the lumbar as well as those from the 9th dorsal

centers. From here the break has arisen. Keep the feet hot, massage

the lower limbs with a combination of turpentine mutton suet and

camphor. But keep the feet warm. Apply to the head cold cloths or ice

at the base of the neck and along the same. The massage should be

downwards always. Keep the diet very easy to digest, keep the body

quiet, have enemas to remove pressures in the evening or late evening

or morning for removal of poisons. Enemas should not be given until

there are the passing away of the effects of the drugs already given.

There is danger that these drugs assisting the poisons may push these

poisons in to more of the circularity system. You can tell when the

pressure is removed because the body will be able to move. Do not

massage to the upper cervicals. Massage is to be given up to 6 times,

better the feet be massaged- feet and limbs from the knees downwards

and then wrapped in a blanket that is kept hot. Not too much ice

should be used for their was danger of congestion.

1187-6 Cayce said to keep up the treatment but add usuline to ensure

that there are no refuse forces left in the system. Use the enemas to

cleanse the kidneys and bowels, do not have the water to hot, body

temperature or less. Use in the last bath glycothymoline as an

antiseptic. The massage- do the left side especially to the face from

the muscles of the neck downwards in a rotary, motion with this

combination

to 1.5 oz of Russian white oil add

Olive oil 1oz

Tincture of myrrh 0.5oz

Oil of cedar 0.5oz

Oil of wintergreen 0.5oz

Compound of tincture of benzoin 0.5oz.

Shake together well and apply just what the body will absorb, Massage

this into the muscles and the centers along the spine and all the way

from the side of the face to the end of the spine and then on the

limbs. This will relax and make for absorption and act upon the lymph

and the emunctory system and will give stamina to those places where

there has been rupture or seepage. Do not attempt yet to make for

corrections to relieve the pressure until the body has regained its

equilibrium. Massage on the right side also where the tingling is, all

the way on the left side of the face. After 20-30 mins sponge off with

tepid water, this should be given once a day. Very little osteopathic

adjustment was required if the massage was given properly. The usoline

should be given before lunch.

1187-7 just two days later improvements were noted, Cayce said that

some exercise should be given but with caution .The osteopathic

adjustments may be given further and further apart, these should have

circular motion in the lumbar and sacral area not too deep. Correlate

the 4th lumbar when these areas have been gradually relaxed, if each

point is held for a few mins it will relax and make for an

equalization of the energies from these plexus .Hold the two points at

the same time. Also massage from the base of the brain downward to the

upper dorsal center either side of the cerebrospinal system more than

in the centers of them –or along the sympathetic system. After such an

adjustment coordinate the 9th dorsal center from the right side of it

to the lower left side of the brachial or the 2nd or 3rd dorsal center

in the same manner as the 9th to the lumbar axis.

Diet should have more strengthening food given more often. Coddled egg

on toast, alternate with whole wheat cereal, no citrus fruits at the

same time, beware of acid and alkaline reacting foods at the same

time. The mutton tallow rub should be at evening, make sure the body

does not overtax itself.

1187-8Improvements noted, advice was to get into the open often, -help

to get more oxygen into the body, keep the rubs up, change now to more

raw vegetables. Keep up the massage. When asked if there was any

further danger of an attack cayce replied there was, but as long as

the body builds itself the body should have many years yet.

1187-9 improvements noted more body building food was to be given and

unless this was done any form of unusual exercise could bring on the

disturbance again. Massage was to be kept up. Exercise was to be given

in the open – walking etc. Osteopathic adjustments were to coordinate

with the upper portions of the distributing centers in the system .The

violet ray would also be helpful provided there are activities which

make for sufficient assimilation's that are helpful towards

revitalizing the body. The Doctors were amazed at this ladies progress.

1425-1male45 This man was in a coma and cayce found the condition very

serious, cayce said that the desire to live must be aroused and

restoration of the body was possible. Poor elimination's, pressures in

the blood sysytem, improper diet and overexertion had caused a seepage

in the deeper circulation. This had not formed a clot in the brain but

was in the circulation, which was causing a reaction within the brain,

its position was producing an incordination or no activity in the

locomotories.

Treatment paint the body along the area from 2nd3rd cervical to the

6th dorsal with a combination of 3 parts laudanum to one part aconite.

Then apply over the same area hot Epsom salt packs- a saturated

solution, make these with several folds of cloth so that the heat will

be maintained. This will relax the body, keep these on until the packs

go cold, which would be at least 45 mins. Apply these twice a day. The

once each day just after the Epsom salt packs. Stimulate by osteopathy

the areas of the 9th dorsal and 4th lumbar plexus with general

treatments for elimination's. Daily- use high enemas to remove feces

and to relive pressures. The water is to be body temperature and a

saline and soda solution i.e. one level teaspoon of baking soda and a

teaspoon heaped with table salt to half a gallon of water, make sure

this is well dissolved. Keep this up until the pressure is removed and

until there are proper reactions. These recommendations should be

given for about 7 hrs each day until there was progress .The diet

should be liquid or semi liquid and not meats.

3417male66 When asked if this person's speech could be restored cayce

replied not unless there was a great change in the mind and desire of

this person. In a letter from this mans daughter he had a heart attack

or blood clot, 5wks on, the clot moved to the brain and a stroke

resulting in paralysis to the right side and loss of speech. Paralysis

has now gone but the speech had not returned. Treatment consisted of

nursing and care. If there is prayer and meditation and desire is

aroused in the body many months may be added to the life .If this

could not be achieved little may be done .The paralysis had touched

the brain, sensory system and these conditions were tending towards

disintegration. Massage with oil and a hot sponge off, prayer and

convert the persons attitude is the way forward –massage oil was to

be a mixture of olive oil 2oz, tincture of myrrh 2oz{heat the oil to

add to the myrrh] calamus oil 4drops.

298-female cayce found the case to be serious and gave a warning that

another 3rd stroke could bring about conditions, which would cause

death. He cautioned that the surroundings and people around her were

acting as hindrances to the welfare of this person. Massage the entire

cerebrospinal system especially the locomotory centers, that is the

brachial plexus lumbar and sacral plexus, massage very thoroughly into

the center as well as the arms and limbs.

To 0.5gall of regular gasoline add in this order canphorgum0.5oz, oil

of cedar1oz, oil of mustard0.5oz, oil of sassafras0.5oz. Mix well

together, massage to be given preferably in the evenings. This should

stay off any further attacks and with time with continued use dissolve

and maintain a more equalized nerve and blood supply because of this

compound gives special attendance to the superficial circulation. The

penetrating qualities will also give better muscular and cartilaginous

activities throughout the system and bring better conditions. This

condition has arisen because of the centers and ganglia where impulses

as well as circulation have become impaired.

298-2 a few days later cayce found considerable improvement while

there was still problems with the muscles and tendon especially in the

limbs, these were effects of poisons from poor elimination and toxic

forces as well as problems with lymph circulation, digestion, and

there were pressures acting in such a way as to effect the nerve

impulses to the locomotories and the branches to the limbs especially.

Apply corrective measures that will aid in eliminating the poisons

from the system. These poisons were also affecting mental capacity

also in making for more of a temperamental individual. Continue with

the manipulations and corrections in the cerebrospinal system. Give

the rub for superficial circulation less frequently about 1-3 times

per week unless the conditions return. When you find that there are

contractions as under the knee in the ankle and the foot apply to

these as well as the centers from which these take their impulses from

as in the cerebrospinal system a solution of Epsom salts. If the pains

are severe massage or paint onto the effected areas anything which

will act as an opiate to the system. This will relax quickly any of

the congested parts. There must be manipulation and correction until

the body gets moving and if she wishes to get out go out to be in the

open this would be well as this creates quieting of the general system

and gives the body other things to think about than self.

For the elimination's use high enemas, colonic irrigation's

occasionally.To 0.75 gall of water put in a tablespoon of plain salt,

two tablespoon of baking soda as an intestinal antiseptic and

cleanser. When rinsing the colon in the last wash use in 1.5gall of

water as much as two tablespoon of glycothymoline as an intestinal

antiseptic that will reduce inflammation and prevent acid from forming

and will cleanse the system. Give this twice a week until three or

four have been given.Keep the diet alkaline forming. Keep the rubs

twice a week. Osteopathic adjustments are to be given in line with

what the body needs.

298-3 a few hours later Cayce found clots and lesions, which was like

a consuming fire within the brain cells themsalves. A change of nurse

was advised one who was in more sympathy with what was being tried.

One that would give a sort of magnetic healing, sitting after giving

the oil massage, use the left hand as the negative pole and the right

as the positive. Place the right hand on the solar plexus and the left

on the forehead .In two weeks there might be change for the better.

This magnetic influence was vital said cayce. This was the only means

of arousing the response to overcome these conditions and coordination

in the circularity system must be found. The next few weeks saw some

improvement from the letters but her mental clarity was receding. She

has had a slight stoke but was refusing the rubs, noted was that the

colitis condition disappeared and the bladder condition.

Several letters in the files suggest that where certain doctors had

written off patients many following the readings had gone back to

work. More strokes followed.

5372 male 54 cayce found conditions arising from a stroke or a broken

cell, not a true collapse of the blood supply but leakage's forming

pressures on the reflexes of the brain. Massage followed by

hydrotherapy treatment as in a fume bath or cabinet to which is put

one pint of water to two teaspoons of witch hazel should be used.

Allow this to boil, allow the fumes to settle over the body. Then give

a good massage using equal portions of olive oil, tincture of myrrh

and compound tincture of benzoin. Massage along the cerebrospinal

system always away from the brain.

Once a week, do have a short-wave electrical treatment. This will aid

in breaking lesions and adhesions, as well as helping poisons created

in the system to be stirred so that the osteopathic adjustments and

the stimulation's from better elimination's will purify the system.

The short-wave machine mentioned here seems to be some kind of

diathermy unit.

Keep in the open when possible, exercise when possible. Problems were

noted in the throat and eyes cayce said this was the result of

pressures on the nerves in the area which effect the throat and eyes

these will be found in the upper portion of the brachial centers 2nd

and 3rd dorsal.He was also weak ,this said cayce comes from the bodies

inability to assimilate which is why the massage will help greatly.

627-1male 32 serious conditions were found by cayce, congestion

throughout the whole body was found and there was little lymph

circulation and hindrances to the impulses of the system so that the

mental and physical are involved.This arises from the effect of

segregation of the lymph and emunctory system. Apply heat to the body

after being massaged first thoroughly in oil combined in this manner,

oil of mustard0.5oz, oil of cedar 1quart, oil of sassafras 2.5 minims,

Russian white oil 1quart. Massage the body all over, then apply hot

blankets making a plaster of mustard at the base of the brain. Apply

later the diathermy machine, cayce said this is so important to

prevent paralysis in places or being mentally unbalanced. When asked

if measles caused this, cayce replied that it was congestion produced

on the affected parts from the measles. He also had spasms which were

caused by pressures on the nerve forces of the brain centers produced

by the congestion .He also had a clot .The diathermy treatments should

be given after the body has regained its circulation, when the color

was more normal. The diathermy should be given over the cerebrospinal

system.

5512-1 male adult Cayce found conditions of an extended nature, and

the vitality of the body labors against great odds, he gave advice of

how to put off the strokes. The central nervous system has labored

under such distresses as to prevent coordination between locomotion

and activity of the rest of the system, or the incoordination between

muscular reflex and nerve impulse is nil. Not that these are entirely

gone, for these are active, but at a slow condition. The heavy Radium

Appliance, used across the solar plexus, would best be used in these

circumstances, especially applied to the radiating ends from those of

the umbilicus, especially in the upper portion. This would be given

only one day, then rest a day - one day, then rest a day - and twice

each week we would add those vibrations from the Radio-active

Appliance that carries Gold, in the proportion of one grain to one

ounce of distilled water.

When asked what causes the terrific pains in the arms and legs? Cayce

replied the locomotary centers were attempting to coordinate with

impulses form the central nervous system. These radiating from the

brachial plexus in the 1st and 2nd dorsal and in the sacral and lower

lumbar plexus, or that of the great locomotary center to the limbs.

That's why both the RadiumAppliance and Radio-Active Appliance should

be used in the differentiation in the system. Use the

Radio-ActiveAppliance should be used the days when the Radium

Appliance is not applied, for one works directly in attenuation to the

nerve and blood, while the other is taking from the system such that

the body may coordinate in reaction.

When asked why does the body get dizzy when it sits up or stands?Cayce

repiled the central nervous system being attacked, or that through

which all balance is kept - it loses its sense of balance by

incoordination between impulses and reactions to them.

When asked Do you think the sickness will affect the teeth? Cayce

replied that it might.

When asked if this body is able to walk without aid? Cayce replied we

would say that it would, if you apply what has been given.

When asked if there were any other suggestions Cayce replied of diet,

we would give that that is not

too much of a body building, but give that is nerve and blood

building that is what is needed.

5667 cayce found conditions of long standing conditions and some

retractions - that would apparently be of a detrimental nature,

prevention of another stroke was vital and the worry as comes from

same, may be eliminated almost entirely from the body, and become

nearer normal

Cayce said in giving the present conditions, there must also be given

something of the history, that the present pathologic conditions may

be understood - but do not confuse former conditions as brought about

this, with those existent in the present - for the changes are of the

nature as has been outlined.

Cayce said in the blood supply, the pressure is abnormal - though

this, in itself, fitful, or changeable at times. In the former

condition there were the effects of the disturbance in the system, as

related to the blood supply, and the effect of pressure producing a

blockage in circulation, as to cause accumulations that cut off the

circulation in nerve energy. Hence the paresis as was a portion of

the result. Hence the usage of the locomotion's of the body are still

impaired. While they have improved somewhat, yet were the causes

removed these would be aided materially.

Cayce said in the elements and constituents of the blood, this we find

acid reactory in system. Too much so for the good of the system.

This also has affected the nerve supply, both to sympathetic and

cerebro-spinal.

In the nerve centers there are specific conditions existent, where

pressure has prevented the normal activities of the body.Cayce said

these were not in the form of blood clot in circulation; rather a form

of the arterial circulation becoming so slowed in its action as to

produce lesions in centers, that have altered not only the voluntary

but the involuntary. Hence there is seen that at periods, especially

those centers that should act from voluntary reaction are involuntary

in their action. Hence incoordination between the sympathetic and

cerebro-spinal system. Those centers or ganglia that show the greater

distress, comes from first the injury received, years ago, in the

lower lumbar and sacral. Also affecting those in the coccyx

region.Cayce said the reflex region as exists in the 1st, 2nd, dorsal

region, are those that affect directly those centers in the brachial

plexus - while the reflex to the lumbar and sacral affect those of the

locomotaries of the lower portion of body. With the inactivity, there

has come many of retractions and reactions, as indicated in and the

organs themselves become affected - though this effect, as yet, has

not been so detrimental as to cause the total loss or use of such

functioning, but has made it necessary that the accentuation's in the

digestive system be kept at such that only certain characters of foods

may be taken with any degree of certainty of its assimilation.

Cayce said the organs themselves have been impaired by the condition

- as of the sensory system, in which accentuation's at times occur; as

for eyes, ears, and especially is the loss of taste at times very

perceptible, and at times annoying.

Cayce said theLungs; bronchia are very good in their action -

considering the character of the blood stream.

Cayce said Heart's action was irregular and the respiratory system,

as related to arterial circulation, shows the pressure and the effect

of conditions as produced by pressure in the nerve system. The

digestive system - rather that of incapacitated, through inability of

coordination between sympathetic and cerebro-spinal, so that a nervous

indigestion occurs at times though the system, as given, is acid in

its reaction.

Cayce said the organs of the pelvis, of the hepatic circulation, show

the strain and stress of the attempt to keep eliminations so effective

as to prevent reoccurrence of those conditions as once existed.

Cayce said that it was possible to return this body to near normal but

would require time, patience, and persistence – yet this may be

accomplished.

Treatment

Cayce said take Toris Compound - making two quantities, one of same

with the spirits frumenti, the other with the simple syrup. Not

combining same, other than when the doses are taken. Alternate these ,

taking one with that of the syrup, the other of the spirits frumenti.

We would take this, teaspoonful four times each day.

Cayce said to be mindful of the diet that it consists principally of

those of seafood's as the flesh; of much that grows above the ground,

as of the spinach, lettuce, and such green vegetables. Any of the

salads that carry large quantities of iron. Now this, will create

blood of a character which is needed, when the pressure is already

abnormal - but we would take the sweats and the alternated sweats;

those that reduce, also that carry those properties as of the fumes

from Gold and of the Salts.

Cayce said electrical vibrations would be found necessary through the

sinusoidal machine, make first – the osteopathic corrections first in

the coccyx, lumbar and sacral; secondary in the upper dorsal and

cervical. Give these once to twice each week, and manipulations - to

keep the coordination of the system - each day.

The baths should be given three times each week. Two of these the

fume baths, one of those the hot bath. Be mindful that the head and

the pulse are watched closely after these are given, and that a good

rubdown is made following the baths – keeping the head cool, and being

mindful of the pulse; and should this raise the temperature of body

too much, and this should be watched carefully, apply ice on head -

drinking plenty of water, and the water that is drunk let this carry

small amounts - one to forty - of lithia.

The sinusoidal poles should be applied To the Lumbar, fourth.

Cervical, fifth.

358-4

Cayce was asked what is the cause of his paralysis, stroke and said

toxic forces, that produced a hemorrhage in the blood vessels, and

that form in the present state of adhesion or lesion. This did not

occur in the brain but rather in the circulation - and found lesion in

the brain through the circulation. But, this may be entirely absorbed

and relieved through the circulation by increasing the amount of

oxygen in the system and effecting, through that assimilated, a

different activity in the blood cells themselves.

Treatment consisted of activating the glands of the body, stimulating

the circulation without increasing the pulsation - either in the lymph

circulation or impulse of the nerve that makes for impulsive action

through the system.

Cayce advised Atomidine with preferably, the wet cell electrical

vibration that would be attached to the body in such manners as to

cause the reactions through those axes or centers where circulation

divides in the upper portion of the body with the liver circulation;

which would bring the proper distribution of absorption and

elimination of these hindrances in the system.

Diet should be, then, the eliminating of all animal fat, and only the

vegetables, fruits and nuts; the nuts supplying the fat and oils; the

vegetables and fruits supplying the sugar, and the nitrates.

Cayce said these, we would find, bring about a normalcy for the

physical reactions of the body.

Cayce said the wet cell battery should carry an element of charcoal

that would make for clarifying the solution in its activity. The poles

of the battery would be of different metals, so that the vibration

conforms to the circulation or electrical influence that is created by

the activity of fermentation and assimilation in a physical body.

Hence the positive pole would be of copper, while the negative pole

would be of silver and when attaching to the body, the positive anode

or plate would be attached first, to the 1st and 2nd dorsal center

(for here we have the brachial plexus, that effects the locomotion

both to the upper portion of the body and reflexly to locomotion in

the lumbar area - and coming through the larger center of the ganglia

of the sympathetic and cerebro-spinal nerve center at this junction).

The negative anode or plate then would be attached over the plexus

that is governing the activity through this same ganglion, both to the

lumbar area and the sympathetic cardiac area - or over the plexus, as

the glands of assimilation or the lymph ducts that direct the activity

of the fluids that are assimilated for the activity of the liver and

its circulation there.

This wet cell we would use for twenty minutes each day, preferably in

the evenings .

Cayce said the quantities of the Atomidine taken would be three to

five drops three to four times a day, rather than all at one time, the

activity would be much better with the system as related to the

assimilations. Hence the activity to the glands of the system (that

is, the thyroid activity, the adrenal glands, the caecum glands the

activities along the pineal, also the lyden) [Leydig?] is effective by

such an assimilation; for when less fluids of a digestive nature for

food supply are existent, there is more activity to the rest of the

system.

5433 female 65

Cayce found problems in the organs of long standing through pressure

and poisons created in the system by hindrances in the

eliminations.The pressure existed first; the tendency to produce

disturbances in the organs of system is produced from the pressure;

the poisons and acute conditions result from the combination of these.

Cayce found problems in the upper dorsals, the seat or the cause of

disorder, and is of a lesion in the nerve system, rather than clots in

the blood stream, as is indicated by the character of the disorders in

the locomotion of body, in the facial expression, and distortion.

These show the effect of a sympathetic cardiac plexus lesion. Hence

the excessive pressure brought about in the blood supply, the

clarifying of impulses so far as mental body is concerned - yet an

inability of the body to carry out impulses as received in system, or

for the organs of locomotion to function normally .Not wholly of a

sympathetic lesion, but only partially so. Cayce said this mostly is

indicated in the 5th, 4th and 6th dorsal area, or plexuses in same.

Cayce said that has been produced from a condition existent in a

greater period back, as may be found in the 2nd and 4th lumbar area.

Hence the disturbance in locomotion, more as a toto in lower portion

of body, and a reverse condition in the upper portion of the body, or

face, neck and arms. In the manner in which the poisons have

accumulated, these come from auto-intoxication, from the lack of

peristaltic movement of the intestinal tract, and from forcing of

activities in the upper portion of digestive system, making an

accumulation that has acted as a barrier to the body.

Cayce said sedative measures are necessary under acute conditions,

but- as we would find - were these changed from those of morphia to

those that will be more active with the whole of the respiratory

system, and with the eliminations as effective through the hepatic

circulation, assisting the kidney and the liver in a normal direction,

without producing counter-irritation - these would be more effective

and less harmful to the cerebro-spinal system, and less pain to the

body. We would take these, preferably, internally. This

as a dose, and after the third day, it will only be found necessary

to be given occasionally. This as a dose, under the supervision of

physician - in capsule form.

Eucalyptol, Oil of..............1 minim,

Rectified Oil of Turp.........1/2 minim,

Rectified Creosote, or

PREFERABLY Benzosol........1/2 minim,

Codeine......................1/60 grain.

Cayce said do not prepare more than three doses at a time, for they

will disintegrate after a few days, even though kept cool and in a dry

place. Do not give more than one dose during any twenty-four hours,

but the morphia may be eliminated and this is what it will do - the

Eucalyptol active with the respiratory system and a reducer in the

blood or heart's pressure; the Turp as an active force with the

digestive system, and especially active with the kidneys, as to

produce eliminations nearer normal in this direction; and those

of the Benzosol as a stimuli to the gastric forces of the

assimilating system; Codeine as a sedative in a nature that will act

through the PNEUMOGASTRIC, as well as HYPOGASTRIC nerve centers, hence

it will ease the body

Cayce said the eliminations, as related to the alimentary canal,

should be through that of the enemas, as will gradually relieve those

pressures in the colon and intestinal system, and aiding in keeping

the reduction in the heart's action and lower pressure; not below

normal in blood pressure.

Cayce said on diet, take more of those foods that will carry a food

value for the intestinal system itself. After the enemas, be sure

there are small quantities - three to four ounces - of oil used as an

injection, to prevent prolapsus of the colon proper; and that these

may also aid in reduction of pressure. Take, in the food values, those

- occasionally - that are intestinals antiseptics, in the form of

Glycothymoline - three to

five drops. In the foods for the body, these should carry more of a

replenishing for the blood supply -this will aid most materially. As

much olive oil, as the body will assimilate, taken in very minute

doses - quarter or half teaspoonful at a time. Do not take so much

that the body belches, or that there is regurgitation of same. In the

small quantities it will be assimilated. Beef juices (not broths)

will be helpful, taken in small quantities, and strengthening to the

body, as would cooled light wines or champagne - to give proper

stimuli to the system.

Cayce said Reduce by manipulative measures, gently - until the body

gains more strength and vitality, and use of self - those conditions

in the lumbar and dorsal region, equalizing the flow or pressure to

the head and neck through gentle massage, but not by too deep or by

corrective measures of the bones . While these must be accomplished,

for a permanent relief, these would come later.

When asked should any osteopathic treatments be given? Cayce said

this, as has been outlined - that, with the manipulations, these

should be given for the reduction of conditions in lumbar and dorsal,

for this will keep - or prevent a reoccurrence of a too full flow of

nerve energy and blood to the head, and reduce the blood pressure as

causes the tic.

When asked what is the seat of the paralysis of left arm and leg, and

the remedy? Cayce said this, as has been given - first condition

existent in the 2nd lumbar, 4th lumbar - this for the axis of the

lower limbs - then the pressures as brought to bear through the

intestinal system, and poisons and accumulations in system

making a pressure upward brought about the lesion in the upper dorsal

region, as signified in the 3rd, 4th and 5th dorsal area, as causes

that un-usefulness, or the pressure that prevents the use through the

brachial forces in the arm, reversing itself - as seen - in those of

the facial reactions; this coming to the right side of face, while

pressures in the cerebrospinal come most to the left side. Hence a

partial pressure is seen in the sympathetic system.

When asked is this permanent condition, or will it be followed by

other strokes?

Cayce said If we will remove these pressures, remove these conditions

- a nearer - not a perfect, but a nearer normal control of body may be

gained, and should not be followed by other strokes - for this is not

a clot, but rather poisons and accumulations and pressures on plexuses.

When asked how long will it take? Cayce said there should be - in four

to five days - a decideimprovement. In five to six weeks

considerable, and a great deal improvement. Then it would depend upon

general conditions and surroundings.

When asked what was cause of former facial paralysis? Cayce said the

same condition as we have given here. Poisons, pressures, from the

diaphragm region - which affected directly those of the secondary

cardiac plexus center; Not the cardiac centers as pertain to carotid

artery and the blood supply in heart itself - as governs that of the

cardiac plexus of the esophagus to stomach proper, but that more as

reflects to those of the central nerves to the face itself, through

the 5th dorsal center, as radiate through the plexus along the

cervical center. Pressure on the diaphragm produced same, raising the

heart pressure and producing it.

When asked has the former facial paralysis anything to do with the

present stroke? Cayce replied An aftermath of same, without the causes

being removed.

1305M 46 Cayce said Now as we find while conditions are very serious,

there are those hopeful indications also, for at least sufficient

recovery for an active service in carrying on much as the body has

outlined for self. Some changes naturally will be made, for it is

more than just material gains or more than just death to die.

Cayce said the conditions as we find in the present arise from a long

standing condition where pressures in the body to the blood stream

have overtaxed the system, until the thinning of the walls has allowed

a seepage that - with the pressure on same - has produced an

incapacitation not only of the physical functionings in almost all of

the activities as related to the sensory system and the locomotions

but to the mental forces and mental reactions of same; though there

are not injuries as yet to the central brain nervous system.

Cayce said. Poor assimilation naturally is a result, as well as other

disturbances.To relieve these pressures then, and to produce an

absorbent without leakages recurring, and to strengthen the walls even

of the artery and the vein circulation, is that to be accomplished.

Cayce said first we would prepare Balsam of Sulphur. This is a

combination of Sulphur and Linseed Oil boiled together, to be sure in

an enamel container in water - or else it may catch fire or explode.

Make about a pound of each; one is by weight, the other by measure,

and boil together.

Cayce said have the osteopath to use this along the cerebrospinal

system every other treatment that is given; not every one but every

other one. Use this especially in the 1st and 2nd - well, throughout

the whole of the cervical area and especially in the lumbar and the

sacral areas. Massage what the body will absorb of this each time it

is used. Set up drainages by the same stimulation.

Cayce said also use the enemas, not too high but saline solutions, to

remove poisons from and through the alimentary canal; so that the

pressures may be relieved and the assimilation and activity of the

other portions of the system may make for better coordination.

Cayce said begin in at least three to six days with the use of the low

electrical vibrations from the Wet Cell Appliance, carrying an

alternation of solutions - one time the Atomidine and the next time

the Spirits of Camphor. The vibrations from these solutions will not

only aid in the activity of the circulatory system but stimulate and

be a healing influence to the very walls of the intestines, the blood

stream, the canals, the flow of blood itself; also make for glandular

action, reducing the blood pressure, relieving the great

strain upon the body.

Cayce said keep the body quiet. Make these applications each day, one

day using the Atomidine, the next day the Spirits of Camphor. Remove

the connections from the solution after each using, rubbing them off.

Put the connections together for their use at least twenty minutes

before they are to be applied to the body, so that the charge takes

place in the solutions themselves, so that the vibrations in each

thirty-minute treatment from the vibratory forces are carried into the

system.

Cayce said. the first day the small plate would be attached first, to

the 4th lumbar axis center; while the larger plate - through which the

full commercial strength Atomidine passes - would be attached last,

to the umbilicus and lacteal duct and gall duct center. This is to

be kept very clean; close connections, though not too tight.

Cayce said the next day the small plate would be attached first to

the 3rd cervical plexus (vagus center - 3rd cervical plexus), while

the larger plate - through which the full strength Spirits of Camphor

solution passes - would be attached last over the same area as the

day before; that is, the lacteal ducts, the umbilicus plexus, the

gall duct area or the lower portion of same. This for thirty minutes

also.

Cayce said after each Appliance treatment, a massage is to be given

over the areas with oils - the areas where the applications of the

plates or anodes are made. The oils are to be equal portions of Olive

Oil, Tincture of Myrrh and Compound Tincture of Benzoin. Heat the Oil

to add the Myrrh; then the other

Ingredient. Shake the solution well before massaging.

To be sure, the body is to be kept quiet. Diet as already outlined

earlier.

When asked How often should the osteopathic manipulations be given?

Cayce said At least every other day, and at times every day. But it's

every other treatment that the Balsam of Sulphur is to be used.It's

every day that one or the other of the solutions through the

vibrations from the low electrical forces would be used.

Cayce said each day there must be an elimination through the

alimentary canal, whether it's little or much. Do not irritate the

body by too oft using same, but if the enemas are given properly

they only aid and do not weaken the body - as some would have others

believe!

As the Balsam of Sulphur is dangerous to combine, can you tell where

it may be prepared properly cayce repiled With the laboratory there -

plenty of them can combine it. It is a very old combination, but any

chemist - with the name of chemist - can combine same.

When asked what chance for body regaining speech Cayce replied He

should soon regain the activities of all his system, mentally and

physically. To be sure there will be some little halting in the limbs

and the arms for some time, but these should be overcome - if these

are followed.

Cayce said Do not give too many heart stimulants unless these become

absolutely necessary. But the osteopath here may accomplish a great

deal more than internal medicine.

When asked Any specific directions for the osteopath? Cayce said

These are generally known, and those that we would apply to any case

where there has been clot loosed by seepage in the whole of the blood

system, by overpressure, overtaxation.

5336-1 M 60

Cayce said, rather serious are the disturbances here. As we find,

there has already been the damage in the hemorrhage in the central

portion of brain. This may be prevented from recurring but as to

gaining control of the use of the body in these afflicted areas little

help may be had owing to the age and owing to this being the second

stroke. For the third very probably will not occur. But we may keep

this down by a daily gentle massage, all away from the head. Not

merely along the spine, but along either side of the spine where the

sympathetic nerves parallel at cerebrospinal, see? And this should

extend even on to the feet, down the backside of the legs. This

should be with the combination of two ounces of Peanut Oil and one

ounce of Olive Oil.

Cayce said when this has been massaged in, as much as possible, then

sponge this off with lukewarm water, and then apply the electrically

driven vibrator (sponge applicator) but always away from the head.

Don't let the body take any foods or strong drinks or carbonated water

or those which carry malt or hops in

Same. No heavy meats; a little fish and fowl may be taken

occasionally. This never fried. Vegetables and fruits are also well

for the body.

These will help, but these will not cure the body.

1103-5 M ADULT

Cayce said As we find, there may be material changes and help brought

to this body with the resistant and consistent applications of that

which will ABSORB those lesions formed by the breaking

of cellular forces in the lumbar and the lower dorsal areas. This was

produced by overstrain, caused by activity in the circulation by

acidity and thinning of the walls of the circulatory forces deep in

the system.

Cayce said use rubs and adjustments. The rubs would be away from

the body, not toward the body, with a combination in this manner:To 1

quart of regular or White Gasoline as the base, add – in the order named:

Oil of Pine Needles...........1/2 ounce,

Oil of Cedar Wood...............1 ounce,

Oil of Wintergreen..............1 ounce,

Compound Tincture of Benzoin....2 ounces (This makes it gummy, but it

will be cut by the next one, which would be),

Oil of Sassafras..............1/2 ounce.

Cayce said These will tend to separate if standing long, but these

should be used at least once every day, and take ten to fifteen

minutes in applying them. Begin at about the 4th dorsal, or just

below where the plexus begins which governs the arms - or the brachial

center. Rub down, along the spinal area. When coming to the axis of

the lumbar area, rub crosswise or to the top of the hips. Then down

the sciatic

center. Rub the toes just as much as you would across the back, but

always away from the body - see? These oils should be shaken together

and used each day.

Use the Wet Cell Battery in its usual way use and keep it charged at

least every twenty-six days.Do this consistently, and we will find in

sixty to ninety days - well, he can kick up his heels as well as ever!

Whean asked What causes, and what should be done for, skipping of

heart beat? Cayce said We begin at the 4th dorsal with the rub, you

see, which is the lower end of the secondary cardiac plexus - and is the

working of the circulation against the lesion that exists there.

This has caused the pressure upon the locomotories in the lumbar center.

Cayce said As the active forces of the wet cell are given to the

extremities, alter from one side to the other, you see;watching the

change in the circulation. This would be given not more than ten

minutes in the beginning, gradually increasing as the pulsation or the

heart's activity changes. For if a test would be taken it would be

found that - the skipping, as it is called - there is three beats

less in the lower extremities than that in the wrist or the temple.

This electrical application is to equalize it. Increase the period

gradually until thirty minutes may be given, by the time it is

charged the third or fourth time. Be mindful to keep the eliminations

well, and we will find we will have much nearer normal conditions.

Cayce said that the person should make up his mind to apply what has

been given

1407male following a stroke

Cayce found disturbing conditions are of natures that the causes

have existed for some time.

Cayce said Then with the reactions as brought about, incapacitation

by pressures segregating and producing specific taxation became

existent.Then as we find, it would be necessary to take both of these

conditions into account when administering that which which not only

help but - if the precautions are kept, and if consistent activity is

taken - bring many years of active service to the body.

Cayce said these should then not be dwelt upon by the body itself nor

those assisting in administering help, that there is little or no use

owing to the age of the body; but rather that there may be aroused

helpful influences. However, to be sure, owing to the age, these are

not as easily aroused unless the mental attitude can be brought to a

much nearer, much more normal constructive force in its outlook upon

conditions,

experiences of the body, as well as the activities of same.

Cayce said in the blood supply we find evidences of excesses of

poisons or accumulations through the system, until there is so much

activity or was so much activity along the arterial circulation as to

cause an expansion of same. Not a hardening but rather a dilation or

expansion. Thus the character of the reaction that has incapacitated

the body in the extremities to some extent is not as of a clot but

rather a plethora or expansion in the areas from which the

cerebrospinal system, as combined with the sympathetic or

vegetative, receives its impulse for activity through the extremities.

Cayce said the blood stream also indicates the low or slow activity of

the liver, the inclinations for long periods of inattention to the

body owing to or from constipation; and a little stomach trouble that

produced bad breath, with shortness of breath. Hence the reaction

first expected, or as spoken of, was a heart's reaction.

Circulation, but not an organic disturbance.

Cayce said the nervous system, we find the centers from which the

locomotories receive their impulse are affected; in the lower part as

well as to the upper, but more in the lower. They are the areas upon

or through which pressures are existent, and these are to be taken

into consideration when administering helpful forces for the body.

Cayce said the activity of the organs , as has been indicated, the

slowing of the circulation - with the congestion through the areas as

indicated - has slowed the step or the activity of the body; has made

the feelings or the appearances of not being sick but continuously

not feeling good. Cayce said Then, since the conditions that have

partially incapacitated the body, these while not so severe at most

periods, at

periods they are very severe; causing the body to find it hard to

navigate at times or move about; inclination to want to sleep;

inclination or desire for more relaxation.These arise from the

disturbances in the functionings of the organs as has been indicated.

Cayce said . Hence we find liver, spleen, pancreas all involved; yet

some sympathetic, some direct, but functional.

Treatment ,Cayce said To be sure, during the periods of such warm

weather, these will require not too severe treatments but continuous

or consistent; that is, once or twice a day there would be the

administrations of those things suggested. Not one day then leave

off; not two to three days and then leave off, but consistently.

These to be sure will be a little slow at first, but if there is the

consistent use of same, we should find help and relief for the body.

Cayce said First, change in those influences as used for the

activity through the alimentary canal. We will find First we would

begin with the use of Zilatone tablets. Take on Thursdays or Fridays

take one tablet in the morning just after the morning meal; in the

evening take two after the evening meal. Then do not take more of

these until Tuesday, when they would be taken in the same manner,.

Cayce said On Wednesday morning (after taking the Zilatone on Tuesday,

you see) take a level teaspoonful of Sal-Hepatica in a teaglass of

water; first dissolved in about half a glass of water and then the

glass poured full.These will tend to make for better eliminations.

These we would keep up in this way for two weeks, leave off for two

weeks, and then begin again and continue in the same manner.

Cayce said Also we would begin immediately with rubs, using an equal

combination of Mutton Suet or Mutton Tallow (dissolved or melted),

Turpentine and Spirits of Camphor. This should be massaged into the

body, all that will be absorbed. Do not bake same except when there

are very severe pains; then bake same by applying an electric pad or

hot salt in bags or the like, across the areas where acute pain may

arise.

Cayce said Give such a massage morning and evening. Begin in the

middle of the spine, gently massage along the spine to the centers

from which the locomotories receive their impulses - or at

the 4th lumbar. Then follow down each limb, especially in that area

just under the hip bone (from the back), along the ends of the

sciatic nerve at the knee, across the muscular forces of the lower

limbs and the feet. Then from the 9th dorsal or central portion of

the back, work upward; gentle circular motion, all the body will

absorb; under shoulder blades, extending to the hands, all the body

absorbs. Then sponge off with a little soda water.Do this in the same

manner in the evening just before retiring, and in the morning just

before arising.

Cayce said Also be mindful of the diet! This is the most important

precaution, BUT DO NOT TAKE ANY PORTION OF THE TREATMENT SUGGESTED

UNLESS ALL IS GOING TO BE ADHERED TO IN THE MANNER INDICATED! These

first:DO NOT eat white potatoes nor corn, either fried or boiled;

nor spaghetti or macaroni. An outline according to these, as we find

would be the better:

Mornings - fresh fruits or cereals and fruits.A little brown toast,

coffee - but not with cream! Sugar may

be taken.Noons - this should be the lighter meal, with all raw

vegetables! Lettuce, tomatoes, celery, onions, radish; anything that

may be eaten raw. Do this at least three days of each week. The

other days there may be taken gruel or vegetable soups or meat soups,

or the like.DO NOT EAT HOG MEAT OF ANY KIND!Evenings - preferably the

leafy vegetables, well-cooked. If meats are taken, let these be fowl,

lamb or fish. DO NOT EAT FRIED FOODS!

Cayce saidThese - if they are adhered to - will bring better

conditions for this body

3809-1 M 59 Cayce said As we find there has been a mild breaking of

the arterial circulation. Thus there is the tendency towards

inability for the full use of portions of the extremities; as hand,

arm, limb and the whole side that has been affected.

Cayce said This is not necessarily fatal if there would be those

administrations which would enable the body to absorb leakage and

prevent the pressures being such as to reoccur, or the activities such

that there are not adhesions or accumulations along the course of the

cerebrospinal nerves and blood supply, or in those areas of the

emuntory patches associated with the sympathetic and cerebrospinal

systems in their voluntary and involuntary activity.

Cayce saidDaily we would give a gentle massage with a combination of

oils following the application of hot towels wrung out of water and

witchhazel, the proportions being four ounces of witchhazel to the

gallon of hot water. Dip heavy towels into this and apply over the

whole area of the cerebrospinal system, from the 1st cervical to at

least the last of the lumbars and through the sacral area to the

coccyx. These should be applied twice, as warm as the body can well

stand. When one application cools, repeat.

Cayce said. Then, while the body is still warm and the pores open,

massage in a circular motion from the 1st cervical to the 9th dorsal

downward, especially on each side of the cerebrospinal system, with

this combination of oils:

Olive Oil................2 ounces,

Peanut Oil...............2 ounces,

Lanolin (melted).......1/4 ounce.

From the coccyx massage upward to the 9th dorsal.

Cayce said Following the massage give the body a gentle vibration with

the electrically driven vibrator; using the sponge applicator, not

the hard disc or the suction applicator.Do keep the better

eliminations through alimentary canal even though it may require at

times the use of colonic irrigations - but scientifically given.

In the diet as already outlined, keep to those foods that are easily

assimilated; Cayce said When giving the vibrator treatments, this

would be given also in a circular motion from the 1st cervical to the

9th dorsal, downward; from the end of the spine up to the 9th dorsal..

Do these and we will bring the renewal of activity and reduce the

pressures in the heart's activity, establishing a better equilibrium

in the metabolism.

When asked Will this treatment relieve stiffness and soreness in

fingers of left hand?Cayce said As indicated this will relieve these

tensions, for it will draw away from the arteries those tendencies

that have not touched the brain, you see.Let's keep them away, so

that they will be eliminated from the system by the activities of

these properties indicated to be used on the body.

When asked Unpleasant feeling in left eye and swelling in ther foot

?Cayce said All of these indicated will be relieved. Do this

consistently, persistently.

389-1 M 55 aversion of a stroke cayce said Now, as we find, there are

conditions that disturb the better

physical functioning of the body.While these conditions in the

present have not assumed such

proportions as to other than occasionally give distress and

uneasiness, unless there are measures taken to reduce the conditions

there may be expected a stroke to ensue.

Cayce saidThe conditions, then, are of a specific nature, and they

have thinned the walls of the blood circulation through those

portions of the system where the plethora in the colon is indicated,

and where the pressure in same makes for the dizzy feelings that come

over the body. And the poisons from same at times produce an extreme

high blood pressure. It is at present 168, and should not be more

than 148.

Cayce said The BLOOD SUPPLY indicates the character of the toxic

forces that disturb the body, for the pressures existent in the

transverse and the head of the descending colon cause a character of

indigestion. They keep a tendency of a deep internal circulation

with little superficial or capillary circulation, except when there

is the attempt of the body to adjust itself; when the walls of the

circulation in the arteries that supply the digestive area - as

through the colon area - are overflooded. Then we have the tendency

for a clamminess in hands and in extremities, followed or preceded

(dependent upon the cycle of circulation) by cold sensations in the

extremities.

Cayce said The manner of repression through the pressures here

produces in the circulation the low pulsation and high blood pressure,

for the pulsation to the extremities becomes slow; the body feels

sluggish at times, not resting as well as it should- feeling as tired

of mornings as, or more so than, when

retiring in the evenings.

Cayce said In the NERVE FORCES of the body, the pressures as indicated

in the left area of the body (transverse and head of descending colon)

make a pressure on the left side at the 8th and 9th dorsal center.

Hence the disturbances in the circulation, as to the reaction in the

right side of the body; for these (as seen and understood) CROSS the

cerebro-spinal plexuses in the various centers along the

cerebro-spinal system. Hence the right side of the body is the

greater disturbance in locomotion (from the left portion of the body),

or right leg, in the arm, in the face even at times - as of drawing,

by the pressure that is made there.

Cayce said The activities of the body, when not under this stress, are

good.Organs of the sensory system, in their functioning, show the

excess of nerve energy. Hence at times there are periods when there

is a blurring of the vision, an impediment in the speech, a reaction

to the auditory forces - so that the left

ear gives disturbance of not hearing so well; at others all of these

reactions are super-sensitive, and the vision - while far-sighted - is

GOOD; at others shows the diffusions, by the pressure in the nerve

system.

Cayce said Lungs, bronchi - good in their functioning.Heart's action,

as indicated from a deep circulation and a high blood pressure, tends

towards too large an organ. Not that it is excessive, as yet; but,

unless there is an equalizing of the circulation, it must eventually

ensue from conditions that exist in the present.

The digestive system, as indicated, is rather spasmodic in its

reactions; that is, there are periods when the body can digest most

anything; others when most everything disagrees with the body.

Cayce said Assimilations work with the digestive forces, in that at

times these are very good.The eliminations, through the drosses - or

alimentary canal, have long disturbed the body. While there has been

given an activity that has, in a manner, kept the body going, the

gradual dilation of the colon - and the clogging of the system, with

the poisons from fecal forces not eliminated, has produced, does

produce, the distresses with heart's action, the circulation, and the

excess poisons in the body.

Treatment Cayce said First, we would obtain an elevator syringe,

[Tyrrell's?] and - for the first three or four days we would, each

evening- evacuate the colon; GRADUALLY. Do not attempt to relieve ALL

the pressures at once, but by taking the high enemas we will reduce

the pressure to almost normal - and relieve these conditions.

Cayce said When the gallon and a half of water is put in the syringe,

let it be tepid - not cold, not hot. First we would take pure

castile soap and make the water not too soapy, but just so it shows

in the water - see? We would also put with this two tablespoonsful

(in the gallon and a half of water) of Glyco-Thymoline, as an

intestinal antiseptic.After the four days, then take the enema every

other day for about two weeks.

After the two weeks, take it about once or twice a week.By this time

we will have evacuated the fecal forces from the alimentary canal.

Cayce said We would also, to aid in this, about once each week use the

castor oil packs across the liver - and let them extend across the

abdomen, or just below the stomach, see? so they cover the area of

the upper portion of descending colon. The packs would be made by

using heavy flannel dipped in WARM not too hot - castor oil; wrung

out, but placed directly on the body, and let them remain over the

whole part for at

least an hour and a half to two hours once or twice a week, see, as

indicated.

Cayce said Also we will find that it would be well to use these as

eliminants (while all these others are being taken, see?):One evening

take a tablespoonful of Milk of Magnesia.. The next evening take a

tablespoonful of Milk of Bismuth.The next evening take an Alophen

pellet.Then rest three days. Then begin over again.

Cayce said We would also have an electrically driven vibrator to, at

least once each day, (and this preferably of a morning) give a

vibration along the whole of the cerebro-spinal system. It should

necessarily be given gently; yet stimulate these centers until the

soreness leaves the body - in the 8th and 9th dorsal area, in the 3rd

and 4th cervical area, and ESPECIALLY in the 1st and 2nd dorsal and

the 4th lumbar area.

Diet as already outlined Follow these conditions, or these

instructions, and we will find that in six to eight weeks the body

will be near normal in its reaction physically. Leave these off and

it'll be rather bad for the body.

When asked What causes the trouble in the side – right Cayce said This

is from those dilations in the colon, and is SYMPATHETIC - in the

caecum area. Hence, as given, in removing these pressures and washing

out the colon, do not do too much of it at first - see? but gradually

eliminate, and we will find all this will disappear. Follow these as

we have outlined, and these may be done by self - or at home, see.

But be consistent, and persistent.

When asked How long at a time should be vibrator be used?Cayce said

Fifteen to twenty minutes.

How soon should this treatment be started? Cayce said Of course, the

sooner the better. In the next day or two, but do not delay; for,

remember, these pressures and the activities are a strain on the body

- and a stroke AVERTED is certainly many years added to the life of

the body-physical!

389-2 said there were improvements cayce said True, there are the

tendencies for the body to be weakened at times by the excess in

eliminations, and the system being weakened by the attempt of the body

to create an equal balance under the strain.The body should not,

then, overtax itself physically; until there has been a considerably

better adjustment in the physical reactions of the body.

When asked Are all treatments being given properly?Cayce said) We

would give that there be more the manner of treatments, not as

something just to be gotten through with - but as something NECESSARY

for the correction of the physical conditions of the body, see? This

should be the attitude as the treatments or applications of every

nature are given.

When asked) Should anything be done when the specific distressed

conditions arise?Cayce said) Massage. Keep the blood away from the

head.When asked Is there still danger of a stroke?Cayce said There

will be until the blood pressure is removed, or until the circulation

has adjusted itself to the changes that are being brought about by

the application of those things suggested. As long as there's high

blood pressure, as long as there's a tendency for the cells - in the

change between the arterial and vein circulation so disturbed - to

overflow at times (which IS the actual production or actual condition

that produces pressure), under STRAIN there IS the possibility of a

blood clot or cell breaking or forming - a bubble, see?

..Cayce said When the reactions occur, RUB the blood AWAY from the

head. That means beginning at the base of the brain, or around the

head also - and face, massaging TOWARDS the central portion of the

body - see? In the applications, be consistent, be persistent. In

the applications, do not apply just to be gotten through with but with

the purpose, with the intent, with the desire, with the application

to ACCOMPLISH DEFINITE conditions for the body! and these will be

accomplished in this way and manner!

389-3 general improvements throughout the system were noted ,however

cayce said In the digestive system : As indicated, with the removal

of the fecal forces in the colon, there is the tendency for

regurgitation - or overactivity of the pancrean and liver ducts - to

produce, under a different environ (as it were), the gastric

activities from the glands in these ducts as to produce an

overacidity, or the reverse - as at times there has been indicated too

much of lactic fluids being backed into the duodenum and pyloric end

of stomach. This is a natural reaction, with gases forming from foods

that are hard of digestion, that are lacking in the necessary

elements for assimilation for the system.

Cayce said In the colon itself: Here we find conditions much

improved. Unless there is kept the tendencies for the keeping down of

the condition, of course, these conditions would form again - and

would raise the pressure beyond normal, and would make for the

tendencies at first of a feeling of some buoyancy, but would soon

produce disturbances in the circulation that would be more harmful to

the better physical forces of the body.

Cayce said We would continue with the suggestions that have been given

for reducing the engorgements in the colon area, and using with same

those properties given that will keep the better alkalinity throughout

the colon; both the alkaline reaction and the antiseptic.

Cayce said We would keep those vibrations along the cerebro-spinal

system as outlined for the body.

When there are the tendencies for nausea, or to create a normal

balance, we would take properties combined in this manner:Obtain 2

ounces of limewater and 2 ounces of cinnamon water, and 1 ounce of

10% solution Bromide of Potassium.

Cayce said When there is the feeling of the nausea, take about half a

teaspoonful of the limewater, half a teaspoonful of the cinnamon

water, with four drops of the Bromide of Potassium, in half a glass of

water.

Cayce said Once very day, or every other day, dependent upon the

condition of the digestive system, take a heaping teaspoonful of Milk

of Bismuth in which there would be put five drops of Lactated Pepsin,

with half a glass of water; or stir into half a glass of water.

This will make for a tendency for a cleansing, and for the relieving

of the tendencies for the lacteals to regurgitate through the

system.When the nausea arises, or the distresses in the colon - or

through the lower intestines before entering the colon, through the

lower jejunum, we would take the limewater compound as given.Rest

sufficiently. Give the body the opportunity to recuperate and to rest

from the strains that have been produced by cleansing the system. But

keep the cleansing! It is much like the reaction from an old sore

externally. When it has been cleansed it will be relieved, but if

there is irritation or non-dressing of same reinfection will certainly

occur!

When asked What causes intense pain in side? Is it the appendix, or

just a natural result?

Cayce said A natural result from removing the fecal forces that have

caused the pressure in the system. Necessary, then, that there be

kept the removal of the pressures in the colon, and that there be the

proper reaction in the digestive area. It would be well for the body

to at least once a week to take ragweed; and plenty of it grows around

the place! Strip the leaves and dry into a powder; or take the

ragweed green and

chew a good mouthful of it, swallowing the juice. Or, take that

known as Simmons Liver Regulator, the dry; a quarter teaspoonful in

water once a week. This will clear out all the disturbance.

Cayce said This does not mean that the enemas should not be taken.

They need not be taken so often, but - as indicated - they are

necessary to keep down the irritation.

When asked Is the body responding as it should to treatments? Cayce

said As outlined, it is responding WONDERFULLY!

389-4 more improvemnts followed and cayce We would keep, then, much of

that which has been outlined for the body, for the present.Keep the

vibrations, and the eliminations, when necessary. To be sure, do not

overtax system, but well that the fecal forces be kept cleansed from

the colon.

Cayce said We would add only this: Occasionally take internally a few

drops of Glyco-Thymoline before meals; not every day, not every meal,

but two or three or four drops occasionally will be helpful.

398-5 cayce said As we find, many conditions show improvement since

that we have had here

before, though there are the tendencies - from the age and from the

activities of the body - for the eliminations not to be COORDINATING

in the system. There are the tendencies for toxic forces that arise

from the incoordination in the hepatic circulation, or that between

the liver and the

kidneys; that has tended, as we have indicated heretofore, to make

for the unbalancing in the metabolism of the system; causing the

tendencies for the dizziness and fainting spell - or tendencies

towards same. Now they leave, as it were, more of the toxic forces in

the system; and unless these are kept intact or nearer normal in

their balance they must bring back much of that which HAS been eliminated

cayce said We would follow much of that which has been given, in

keeping the balance with the vibrations by the massage with the

electrically driven forces.But addingTake two quantities of Toris

Compound; make one with the simple syrup and the other with the

Spirits Frumenti. Then combine these together, you see, and take a

tablespoonful twice each day, mornings before the meals are taken and

in the evening before retiring. Each quantity would contain, to be

sure, the one ounce of Syrup of Sarsaparilla; but one quantity would

carry six ounces of the Simple Syrup while the other would carry the

six ounces of Spirits Frumenti. Then mix the two together.

Be very mindful that during the period these properties are being

taken there is not too great a strain of the body in lifting; nor that

there is too great a strain from getting too warm in the sunshine.

But the general activities outside are very good for the body.

Cayce saidDo not overtax the system, else we will find the properties

being taken would become too severe. Should this prove so, from too

great an activity through the alimentary canal by the tendency for

diarrhea, then reduce the quantity but continue to take same until the

whole quantity has been taken.

When asked What is causing pain in back?Cayce said The tendency for

the accumulations of the toxic forces from the poor eliminations, or

poor coordinations between the liver and the kidney activity. That's

why the application of these things as given. If the pains become very

severe, apply Epsom Salts packs - saturated solution of Epsom Salts -

across these portions, and they will relieve the pain. Do not use

these, however, unless the pains become very severe.

When askedWhat is cause and remedy for boils on back of neck?Cayce

said The eliminations, as indicated, should so clarify and purify the

blood as to make for better eliminations; and the incoordination in

eliminations, as indicated, is that which produces this tendency for

poisons to be eliminated by eruptions in the lymph circulation. Do

these things as we have outlined, and - as we find - we will bring the

better conditions for this body, [389].

398-6

problems from the pressure and other problems had caused semi

consciousness and the pains in head, side,and the inability of the

body in some directions to control the locomotaries - or the feeling

of the prickly sensation in a portion of the shoulders and face and

side.

Cayce said adhere to the eliminations that have been indicated for the

evacuation of the alimentary canal, just so that these do not

interfere with the applications being made. Where sedatives have

been administered, and where there has been the necessity of

stimulation for the heart's action, these are good in their proper

order, but the drosses from the system must be relieved.

Cayce said We find that it would be most helpful and beneficial to

massage over the lower portion of the head, the neck, and especially

over those portions of the body where there has been contraction in

the side and in the spinal area - as in the lower cervical, the upper

dorsal areas specifically, (always massaging DOWNWARD) with a compound

prepared in this manner:

To 1 quart of Kerosene, add:

Oil of Cedar...................1/2 ounce,

Tincture of Benzoin............1/4 ounce,

Russian White Oil................2 ounces,

Witchhaze1.......................2 ounces.

shake the solution well together before pouring out a small quantity

into an open vessel to be massaged into the portion of the body as

indicated.

Take as much of the Olive Oil taken internally as the body will

assimilate.

Cayce said Being in the open and exercising the mental and physical

would be well, but not too strenuous.

When asked What will relieve the terrific headaches when they occur?

Cayce said The better will be to rub the lower portion of the head,

or the upper portion of the neck and down the spine and away from the

head; rubbing the blood away from the head, you see, with those

properties indicated. Using the high enemas to relieve the pressure

here will relieve headaches, too.

A note from his son mention he was sticking to the remedies

consistently enough , but felt as good as ever.

398-7. improvements noted but cayce said As it is, the body is not

wholly relieved; yet a great deal of the heart disorder has

disappeared. There are still poisons in the system from the toxic

forces that arise from pressures in portions of the cerebrospinal

system; causing stiffness in the extremities, very severe headaches

and burning in the eyes, pressures on the top of the head, and dizzy

spells at times. Still, there is much improvement from that we have

had before.

Cayce aid As we find, we would change considerable from that we have

indicated heretofore as being better for the body, in the present.

Cayce said at least every other day or twice to three times a week,

until eight or ten treatments have been made, a full adjustment along

the cerebrospinal system; either from a GOOD chiropractor or - better

- by a good osteopathic manipulation, that we may relieve these

tensions along the cerebrospinal system. These are as HINDRANCES to

an equalized circulation.

Cayce said After the eight or ten treatments have been taken, then we

would begin with a period of eliminations in this manner, but not

until the osteopathic treatments have set up the drainages nominally:

After each meal for three days take a quarter teaspoonful of

Al-Caroid, first dissolved in a small quantity of water and then

stirred in a FULL glass of water.But on the second day of taking the

Al-Caroid (that is, after

it has been taken one full day), add the Caroid and Bile Salts

Tablets to same for the remaining two days; two tablets taken about an

hour and a half after breakfast and two tablets taken just before bedtime.

Then leave off both for three or four days; and then repeat the whole

procedure for the three days again.

Do this for about three or four rounds, with the rest period between each.

Cayce said Then we would take about three or four more adjustments or

osteopathic treatments.

By that time we should find a great deal of improvement still for this

body.

When asked What can be done about stiffness in fingers? Cayce said

Increase the eliminations as indicated; first by the adjustments so

that drainage's are set up nominally, and by the period of

eliminations so that when there are the reactions from the organs'

activity in the alimentary canal the drainage's will be naturally from

the superficial circulation to the other portions or organs of

activity in the eliminating system.

When asked should the electric vibrator treatments be continued? Cayce

said These, as indicated, we would leave off; taking those

adjustments, you see; six, eight or ten; then take the eliminants, you

see, leaving off the treatments osteopathically during that time, and

then have three or four MORE adjustments.

Not too great a quantity of sugar or starch, but keep the diet

well-balanced

Other complications started to arise with this person which were not

really relevant to stroke.

582 female48 cayce found problems the greater part are reflex

conditions rather than those of organic nature; though the organs of

the body are involved and at times affected by the condition. This

arises from an old subluxation in the cerebrospinal system, and this

has gradually produced the disorder; through the impulses created in

some directions by overstimulation and in others under-stimulation and

the cutting off of the activity in the assimilating and eliminating

system in some respects - as we shall see.

Cayce said the blood supply, here we find evidences of that which has

caused and does cause much of the distress; for the abnormal pressure

- as shown in the activity of the circulation, and the effect that

such activities produce upon the heart, the liver, the hepatic

circulation - is the effect of a subluxation in the upper dorsal area,

that affects directly the secondary cardiac plexus; thus producing not

only this slowing of the circulation between the heart, the lungs, the

liver, but causes that which prevents the elimination's carrying on

their proper activity in the system.

In the past the circulation had problems ; also from the slow activity

of the elimination's through the alimentary canal, or constipation.

This produced toxic forces in the system. These toxic forces

Produce the tired heaviness that occurs to the body at times, with

the specific character of headache, the heaviness in the lower limbs;

all produced from these toxic forces that have gradually built

themselves in this body.

Problems were found Through the pressure that exists in the secondary

cardiac area of the dorsals (which is between the 3rd, 4th, 5th and

6th in the dorsal area; the specific being between the 4th and 5th

centers or segments) there has been produced a circular lesion;

causing the pressure that has affected the body in this way and manner.

The problems to the organs of the body itself, here we find – as

indicated from the first - reflex conditions and not causes.. The

reflexes from the brain forces, or in the sensory system, are near

normal; while reflexes in the extremities - as in knee, elbow, hand

or feet - are subnormal. These make for the indications as to how

the pressure, through the nerve forces in the organic disturbance,

affects the locomotaries in both the lumbar and in the cervical or

upper dorsal.

In the throat, bronchi, lungs, larynx, a pressure at times produces

the shortness of breath. This, however, is more from other organic

disturbances or reflexes than any condition in the lungs or in the

heart's activity itself; though the pressure has existed for a period

sufficient that there is an engorgement in the organ itself - but not

ORGANIC disturbance, though this would be denied by some that are

judging from the effects rather than the internal causes.

Cayce said As to the activity of the digestive system, here again we

find that there is such an activity from the pressure - the lesion in

the 4th and 5th dorsal center - as to produce an abnormal effect in

the activity of carbohydrates upon the system. Not that it has

prevented the liver, the spleen and the pancreas from being active.

Cayce said In the area of the liver here we find the pressure in the

area of the cardiac being such as to cause a torpidity in a lobe of

the liver, with an enlarged portion in the other or right lobe of

same. This makes for those conditions which the body terms at times

as " spells " of dyspepsia, spells of indigestion, spells of - well, it

just hurts all over, across the pit of the stomach and down the right

side.

These, now, are effects, to be sure, not causes; though they do cause

the reflexes in portions of the system as to make for great distress.

Cayce said Then, as to the activities necessary for removing these

distresses and pressures, we find that the pressure may be reduced too

quickly to the detriment of the whole system; yet if measures are

taken in a sysematic manner and in a consistant way this may not only

be reduced but be corrected so as to give normalcy in pulsation, in

respiration, in heart's activity, and in the eliminations of the body

also.

Cayce said. begin with the high colonic irrigation, or colonics;

though this may be done by self if it is done in a consistent manner.

Remove the pressure by relieving the colon; not too fast, but

sufficiently that we may remove the causes of the pressures in this

area. The first week we would take at least two colonic irrigations.

The next week take only one, and the next week one. Then it should

not be necessary for more than one a month for two to three months.

Cayce said After the first irrigation we would begin with the use of

Castor Oil packs across the colon area, from the right side to the

left, all across the transverse colon area.After the packs have been

used for one day, then begin with corrections osteopathically of that

subluxation; especially in the upper dorsal area, as indicated. Take

at least sixteen treatments; at least eight of these should be

adjustments, while the others would be to coordinate the varied organs

affected by the correction.

Cayce said Also each day add the vibration from the Radio-Active

Appliance, but here apply same in a different order from that

ordinarily given. Make the first connection to the 9th dorsal plexus,

and the other connection the first afternoon or evening - to the right

wrist. The first application or first anode, you see, to the 9th

dorsal plexus, then the other one connected to the right wrist. The

next day connect to the 9th dorsal first, then to left ankle. The

next day connect to the 9th dorsal first, then to the left wrist. And

the next day to the 9th dorsal first and then to the right ankle. And

so on complete around, you see, changing the application each day as

given; and we would use it for at least thirty to sixty minutes each

day. This will create the balance for the circulation.

Cayce said and in six weeks we will have a normal balance and a normal

blood pressure, a normal heart activity, a normal lung expansion, and

the liver will be in a much more normal condition.

Cayce diet as already outlined.

582-2 few months later , improvements noted

Cayce said However, the irrigations have not reached sufficiently high

in the colon to overcome the engorgements in the colon that tend to

make for the increase in the pressure in the blood supply, through the

activities on the hypogastric plexus. These taken sufficiently, under

the present conditions, now, will the more easily remedy and make for

the corrections in this direction. These should at least reach not

only above the sphincter muscular forces but also to the beginning of

the transverse colon area; and these will make for the removal of the

conditions that cause the accumulation of those forces that make for

pressures in the blood supply; alleviating this mucus from the system

and allowing the reactions to become so as to keep the more alkaline

in the lower portion of the system, and not have regurgitation of the

hydrochlorics; thus making for better and better conditions.

3-4 more colonics were advised. Then later it may be necessary for

more, with the fullness - when there is any feeling of dizziness or

heaviness in the back portion of the head, fullness across the lower

portion of the abdominal area; they will relieve these pressures. Be

sure that the antiseptics are carried in the latter portion of the

irrigations, that there may be no irritating of the mucus membranes of

the intestinal or colon area itself. Keep using the radial appliance

Cayce said do these and, as we find, we will continue to make for a

[high blood pressure] reduction; for now it is only 188 - and it has

been 240!

Cayce was asked just what would be my normal blood pressure? Cayce

said 100 to the age, or - in the present - should be about 148.

582-3 F 50 2 yrs later approx

cayce said Some have become specific disturbances and the body has

lost a great deal of its strength, of its vitality, through the high

blood pressure PRODUCING a clogging and a clot that makes for the

inability of activity in the right portion of the body - and in those

portions of the extremities does this make for the greater

disturbance.-stroke

cayce said As we would find, though it will not cure, it would be most

helpful to use a combination as a solvent and as an aid to the

locomotion; it will reduce those tendencies for the pressure to become

more and more disturbing. However, it will be necessary to keep some

of the medications that are

being administered at times. Combine these:To 1/2 gallon of white or

clear Gasoline, add 1/2 ounce of

Camphor Gum. Let this stand and then shake it occasionally, until

it is thoroughly dissolved. Then add:

Pure Olive Oil..2 ounces, Compound Tincture of Benzoin..1 ounce.

Cayce said Use this as a rub about three times each week, especially

along the brachial center, out the left arm and to the fingertips on

the RIGHT hand, down the spine and on both limbs, but especially

across the lumbar area and the brachial area. The use of the colonics

will reduce the temperature and the pressure the more.

When asked How often should the colonics be taken?Cayce said

Sufficiently often that there is an evacuation of the colon area each

day. This is necessary, whether it is from the use of the colonics or

from medications that may be active with the circulatory forces as to

produce a higher activity in the peristaltic movement - as laxatives.

But do not use very heavy cathartics. Rather Castoria, Olive Oil,

Senna, Syrup of Figs, Syrup of Senna. Any of these are much

preferable to those that make for a great agitation or that

are so acid in their nature.

Although not specifically recommended by cayce spiritual healing has

the capacity to be very beneficial in all illnesses- see other pages

on this fascinating subject.

Where possible the patient is to do everything they can to help others

in whatever capacity they can. Cayce frequently mentioned that this

will bring faster resultsThis is a great ingredient in helping all

people to transmute their own karma. See other pages on this

particularly important treatment.

Tom, have you tried EFT?

Hello; my 2 cents

I was just reading an article about how " The B-Vitmains prevent

Stroke and other Cardiac disesase; I would go to the pharmacy a.s.a.p.

and buy a quality " Vitamin B-Complex formula by Solgar;Twinlab;or

Natrol; or any good brand (ask Pharmacist; then begin to take pill day

I will try to find the article and resend; B-Vitamins help Vertigo; A.

Thanks for posting. The cause of my stroke is known. It was blunt force trauma.

Do any of you know of spiritual healers you would recommend? I've already dealt

with a few who were experienced, but they said they'd never seen a situation

this complicated. That leaves me on a search for answers.

In that case, has EFT been part of your treatment?

Tom,

Have you used EFT (emofree.com)?Â On that website you can find a certified

practitioner, or email them.Â I know it works on just about everything,

physical and emotional levels.

The secret of making something work in your lives is, first of all, the deep

desire to make it work; then the faith and belief that it can work; then to hold

that clear definite vision in your consciousness and see it working out step by

step, without one doubt or disbelief. â€” Caddy

Re: new member / seeking answers: stroke, vertigo

Â

Thanks for posting. The cause of my stroke is known. It was blunt force trauma.

Do any of you know of spiritual healers you would recommend? I've already dealt

with a few who were experienced, but they said they'd never seen a situation

this complicated. That leaves me on a search for answers.
