This is a technique I teach in my Threshold Reiki 3 class.  The first time I used this was when I learned it in my first Reiki 3 class, and it was called Psychic Surgery (I later changed the name when I met a true psychic healer a few years alter.)  My teacher (Elizabeth) was a graduate of William Rand's "Center For Reiki Training" and she gave out his manuals for the class material.

In talking to one of my classmates I learend that she had a pain in her back that had been there for 25 years.  It was her main reason for learning Reiki.  During practice time in class, another student and I (Stephen) were paired with this lady since there was an odd number of students.  Amazingly, we managed to remove the pain using this technique.  When the lady returned over the following 2 days for the master class, the pain remained gone.

I next used it a couple days later on a friend (Jo) who was in town from New Zealand.  I used this along with the master level healing attunement technique.  Her target area was a discomfort in her abdomen.  At the time we seemed successful with this as her pain subsided.  She returned home and 2 weeks later wrote me that the scheduled surgery she had anticipated was cancelled when the pre-surgery scan showed that the cysts and fibroids in her uterus had somehow disappeared. Neither my wife nor I had known she was to have surgery or what the original abdominal discomfort had been.  We were both suprised but relieved for our friend.

As if that wasn't experience enough, shortly after all this my 2nd oldest daughter (9 years old at the time) had another episode of growing pains, and as usual, they occurred in one part of her legs, and always in the middle of the night.  She slept in the top bunk bed and so I would have to stand on a chair and give to whichever leg was affected, Reiki for half an hour, before the pain would go away and she could fall asleep again.  This particular time, I had her sit up and being sleepy myself, I just asked her a few questions (part of the method) and then began the pulling.  Right away she noticed something moving.  Within a few minutes, surprisingly the pain was gone.  And for that portion of that leg (the calf area of her left leg)  it never returned again (this had not been the case before.)  In the following months when the other 3 areas (calf and upper leg) of both legs had the pain, I used aura surgery on them with success.  After the last time she never had the problem again.  It still amazes me how this kind of focusing can help someone

These successes made me decide to teach the technique in my own Reiki 3 classes.
