Do not pass by the Edgar Cayce museum without stopping in & getting literature. Interesting fellow on the right track for foods. Great concept can be used today!

I went to see it and was quite impressed. My mother had been interested in his works so I went and frankly was surprised that I enjoyed myself.

Keep an open mind even if you are not a believer of mediums who channel, predict, and communicate with spirits.This is a special place and definitely worth a visit.

I visited the Edgar Cayce's A.R.E. for the first times last week. The 2 hour massage ( Joe ) and the Manual Lymph Drainage ( Ed ) were indeed transformative.

Four of us had 1.5 hour combination facials and massages at the Spa at Edgar Cayce Institute. The services were exceptional and we felt great when we left after all the pampering.

I'm not sure what I was expecting, but I must admit I was somewhat disappointed. I guess I expected more of a museum about the man and his work. It was interesting though it left me unimpressed. The price of admission was great, it's free.

Love the spiritual books, crystals, jewelry and fun items. I have sat in on two classes both very interesting and thought provoking. I go there occcasionally when heading down there for meditation on the beach. Good side visit.
