the principles, methods, and detailed instructions for using the Cayce CARE home handbook to better health—for I have found this the key not only for healing the sick, but for building and maintaining a buoyant, energetic, and productive state of vibrant health capable of prolonging a youthful joie de vivre into the middle and golden years, free of disease. No matter what trials and tribulations life holds, one is better equipped to handle them in good health than in sickness.

      To me, the Cayce readings are as alive today as when Cayce was living. In the years since he died (1945), I have continued to use many of the same therapies and remedies with repeated success. The main difference is that when Cayce was alive one could get definite suggestions for individuals. One could even find out by a series of questions the reasons why different suggestions for treatment were given to various people who seemed to have had the same disease. Often even the formula for a massage ointment was specific and detailed as to the amount and the timing, and in many cases he even predicted the results that one could expect. A distinctive characteristic of the Cayce work was that each human being received an individually orchestrated composition of therapies designed to restore the harmony of the body, mind, and spirit. At other times, he just sent patients to me and left it to me to decide what they needed.

      We no longer have Cayce as a personal source of information. Now it remains for those who have had the experience, educational background, scientific training, and wisdom of correct interpretation to use the readings in the best possible manner to heal the sick and to make the knowledge available to those who are well so that they can maintain their health throughout life.

      The Cayce therapies and remedies are timeless—reaching back into the past over the centuries and often projecting into the future, anticipating by many years discoveries of science and research to validate them. Cayce was tapping “universal sources of intelligence” and receiving from them the natural laws of the universe. The wisdom Cayce received recognized the God-given ability of the human body, mind, and spirit to heal themselves. This is why it works as well today as it did when Cayce was alive, if interpreted properly.

      The infinite wisdom contained in the Cayce readings must be continually researched, applied, and explored for the possible remedies contained therein. There is still much to learn from them that we do not fully understand, that has yet to be used. But with study, experience, and the clinical research of some forty-five years, it has been possible for me to deduce from the advice he gave to individuals certain general principles that I have found, in clinical experience, can heal the sick and serve as a guide to better health for all.

      I have selected those procedures, therapies, and remedies that are suitable for home use, provided you observe the parameters described for each one and you have consulted your own or a Cayce-oriented doctor for a diagnostic analysis. As Cayce himself said, his work would first teach individuals, then groups, and finally the masses. It is our hope that The Edgar Cayce Handbook for Health Through Drugless Therapy will teach the fundamentals of glowing health, youthfulness, weight control, disease prevention, sexual fertility and fulfillment, and a long, happy, productive life.

      The Cayce therapies and remedies are timeless—reaching back into the past over the centuries and often projecting into the future, anticipating by many years discoveries of science and research to validate them. Cayce was tapping “universal sources of intelligenceand receiving from them the natural laws of the universe.

      Working with Cayce

      You will give a physical and mental reading for this body, with suggestions for the improvement of either, and you will answer the questions which I will ask you regarding these. (5439-1)

       I had never heard of Edgar Cayce, but I assumed him to be one of the hundreds of medical doctors, osteopaths, dentists, chiropractors, or naturopaths who were making regular patient referrals to us for physiotherapy treatments.

       —H.J.R.

      Edgar Cayce came into my life on a raw wintry day in January 1930. At the Reilly Physicians’ Service we were in the middle of our usual post-holiday rush. Clients were dashing about, working hard to shed their guilt and pounds to undo the damage of Christmas and New Year partying. My sister Dorothy, one of the five who worked with me, was paging me over the intercom. I was very busy and I brusquely asked her if our brother Dr. Pat couldn’t take care of the matter. She was insistent that I come to the reception room.

      “I have a Mrs. L.S. here with some papers for you to see. She says Edgar Cayce of Virginia Beach sent her.”

      I had never heard of Edgar Cayce, but I assumed him to be one of the hundreds of medical doctors, osteopaths, dentists, chiropractors, or naturopaths who were making regular patient referrals to us for physiotherapy treatments.

      At that time we were located at 1908 Broadway, in New York City, on the second floor of a wooden building on the northeast corner of 63rd Street. It wasn’t a fancy place—nothing like the plush Reilly Health Service in Rockefeller Center that was to become famous in later years. But it was a well-equipped gymnasium and health spa with plenty of space indoors and on the roof for exercises and a handball court. We had one of the city’s most elaborate hydrotherapy departments—European-spa baths, Scotch douches, sitz baths, a variety of steam baths, massage rooms, electric cabinets, and electrotherapy equipment—everything needed for a complete physiotherapy service.

      When I entered the reception room, I found an attractive, red-haired woman examining the pictures of business tycoons, labor leaders, politicians, and opera, theater, and radio stars that covered our walls, all of them inscribed to me with appreciation or a similar sentiment.

      Mrs. [5439] had an air and bearing that made me think of the theater and star quality. I asked if she were an actress. She smiled a little and looked pleased. She told me that her great love was writing, especially for the theater, and that she hoped to write a good play one day. She looked much younger than her age, which I discovered was forty-two.

      The man who is (or was) president of the Physiotherapists of [New York State] and who has been familiar with the readings for a number of years—who is also now using the green light—is: Dr. H.J. Reilly, R.C.A. Bldg., 1250 Sixth Avenue, N.Y.C.

      I hope you get a chance to go into his office and see him. It would give you an idea of the type of place you are to seek in your vicinity—in case he does not have one to recommend that is a member of his association, I mean.

      —Gladys Davis Turner (in letter accompanying reading 3008-1)

      “Edgar Cayce of Virginia Beach sent me here,” she said, holding out a sheaf of papers. “He said I was to have massage and electrotherapy.”

      “I never heard of him,” I replied. With the arrogance of youth I casually accepted the fact that he had heard of me, whoever he was. “Let me see what you have there,” I said.

      The sheets of paper she handed me were headed:

      This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his office, 115 West 35th Street, Virginia Beach, Va., this day 11th of January, 1930, in accordance with request made by self—Mrs. [5439] (then the woman’s full name was given).

      Next, it read:

      PRESENT—Edgar Cayce; Mrs. Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. The Time of Reading 4:00 P.M. Eastern Standard Time. Mrs. [5439] of Central Park West, New York City.

      Then it went on with the following instructions to Edgar Cayce given by Mrs. Cayce:

      You will give a physical and mental reading for this body, with suggestions for the improvement of either, and you will answer the questions which I will ask you regarding these.

      At first I thought this was some kind of joke, or that Mrs. [5439] and Cayce were crazy. Yet I was curious enough to go on reading. I was not totally hostile to the idea of a referral from a psychic, because over the years we had had a number of astrologers, psychics, palmists, numerologists, and
