Another patient who received relief from a longstanding condition was E.D.G., a fifty-year-old man who lived in Massachusetts. He had suffered ill effects from working in very cold conditions, making hive equipment in the dozen years he had been a beekeeper.

“I think I eventually got a permanent condition of cold in my back and this seemed to have considerable influence on my bearing,” he wrote. Besides backaches, he suffered affected heart action, breathlessness, headaches, and loss of memory. A medical doctor’s treatments had taken care of the trouble for two years, but the man was apprehensive that it might return, so he appealed to Cayce.

Cayce prescribed hydrotherapy treatments, including mild, dry heat, then a fume bath, preferably with witch hazel, followed by thorough massage and at least two colonics two weeks apart.

The patient came to New York so that I could get him started on the treatment and help him to locate a fume-bath device for home use. His wife wrote Cayce, “We are now carrying on the treatment the best we can at home, and we are delighted with the good results even in this short time.”
