EXERCISE FOR THE TREATMENT OF
HEMORRHOIDS
Although the Edgar Cayce readings consistently recognized
the importance of regular moderate exercise for maintaining health, the
readings also sometimes prescribed specific therapeutic exercises to address
a particular condition. Many of the readings given for persons with
hemorrhoids recommended this exercise:
Take the exercise daily as we have indicated for
this condition: Standing erect, gradually rise on the toes, at the
same time, raising the hands slowly from the side, arms extended, until
they are high above the head. Then bend forward as if trying to
touch the floor with the finger tips. This done several times each
day, very slowly, will gradually lift the sphincter muscle and thus remedy
the hemorrhoid condition. (3678-1)
A very helpful exercise each morning and evening,
also, would be the BENDING exercise with the hands raised high above the
head, bending forward to bring the hands as close to the floor as possible.
Do this for two or three minutes morning and evening. (4873-1)
Each morning on arising and each evening before
retiring; stand erect - gradually rise on the toes (without any shoes
on) and at the same time gradually raise the hands directly above the
head, straight up. Then bend forward just as far as possible.
Do this three times, night and morning. These will bring better
conditions for this body. (3542-1)
