1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief of this body; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [3082].
3. As we find, in many respects conditions are very good. But the administrations that have been made for the reactions through the nerve center to the head, when the body has these convulsions, are gradually building a bad condition through the activity of the alimentary canal - as well as the reflexes in brain, to the activity of glands relating to the pineal.
4. These, then, are conditions as we find with this body:
5. In some time back there was an injury to the side of this body, in the right side below the liver, where a lesion has formed in the lacteal ducts - through a portion of duodenum and through the alimentary canal.
6. The lesions affect, especially, the emunctory and lymph centers that control these in the area just at the lower edge of breast bone.
7. When these reactions come - which are gradually builded as bursa, and then as a flow through the congested area - a contraction is caused to the center at the base of the brain, where the lymph and the sympathetic and cerebrospinal center activities enter the brain.
8. Thus we have loss of memory, as a reaction, and then a contraction of the muscular forces about the head and through the upper portion of body.
9. First a tremor is caused through the body. At the time a very cold spot may be found at the lacteal duct - the main lacteal duct center. Also there may be found then a cold spot at the hypogastric center.
10. Thus the contractions are caused, as there is the flow of this lymph through the congested area - or the creation
3082-1 Page 2
of the bursa and the attempt to eliminate same through the system.
11. As we find, there should be the application of heat, followed by a gentle massage to these bursa, to break up the lesion in the lacteal duct center. This is about a hand's breadth from the navel center to the right, and two fingers up on the body from that point - that is, the congested area.
12. Of course, this has something to do with the lack of proper digestion, at times, and the over amount of food that is required at times.
13. Also the assimilations are being affected by the sedatives that are a part of the administrations in the present.
14. These may be materially aided, in the relaxings, through the means of a NEUROPATH who understands how to follow these nerves along the frontal portion of the body, as well as along the centers where cerebrospinal and sympathetic coordinate in the spinal area. This would be not so much on the spine itself as at those centers indicated - the 1st, 2nd and 3rd cervical, 4th cervical, 1st, 2nd and 3rd dorsal, and the lumbar axis, and the coccyx center - especially on the right side of the coccyx areas. These areas relaxed, we should prevent these contractions occurring again in the body - especially when the lesion is removed, or when the bursa are released - and kept released - in those areas indicated.
15. About every other day, then, we would first relax the body by applying wet heat, as from heavy toweling or the like wrung out of hot water and applied over these areas, until there is a thorough relaxing of the body - followed by the neuropathic massage, you see, as indicated. After the body is thoroughly relaxed, these applications may be made once a week, until those periods every two or three months, or three to four months apart, when these bursa fill.
16. Ready for questions.
17. (Q) What causes severe headaches and stomach ailment which follow and precede these attacks? (A) As indicated, it is the filling of those bursa, and then the pressures on the nerve system at such times. Do these things as we have outlined.
18. (Q) Does the climate have any effect? (A) The climate is not the cause.
19. (Q) Does strain of the eyes have any importance in occurrence of a convulsion? (A) This, of course, tires the body, but is not a cause.
3082-1 Page 3
As indicated, the cause is a lesion in the lacteal center - that causes the bursa in the ducts through the areas indicated to become filled. Do these things, and we will bring bettered conditions for this body, [3082].
20. We are through with this Reading. Two copies to Self (one for the Neuropath, or a doctor versed in following the nerve ends from their source) Copy to Ass'n file (Please let us have the name of the doctor you choose for carrying out these instructions. If you will tell us where ... is - near what large place - we will tell you whether or not we know of a physician in the vicinity who has had experience with following Mr. Cayce's Readings.) .)
