I've done something that's called Network Chiropractic here in the US. It was pretty good.
First off, it's not the traditional chiropractic. If you take your thumb and gently brush it on the table, that's the most pressure NC uses.
As the NC practitioner explained to me, when our bodies store bad memories, the body processes what it can, then sends the rest down the spinal cord to the nervous system which files it away somewhere until we're ready to deal with it. By using very light pressure on a patient's back, the practitioner is bringing the patient's awareness to whatever memory is being stored in that area the touch is being applied. And the body, in this awareness, takes from that area what it can process.
For me it was like talk therapy, without the talking. My body just dealt with stuff without me having to dig it out through talking and exploring. It was amazing. Sometimes therapy can be a lot of work. This wasn't as much work. Sometimes mind exploring physical stuff can get so wrapped up in thinking rather than feeling. NC sort of cut out the middle man. I could feel it and let it go. Marvelous stuff.
