It is totally woo woo energy work. For me, I lie on a table and the therapist (who is part of a chiropractic group and is also a chiropractor) does light touch or just puts her hands close to my body and she asks what I see and feel. There is not a lot of talking. But it helped me with anxiety so bad that I was literally shaking even though there was no reason for it and most recently it helped me get back on the motorcycle after my wreck. I was having some ptsd symptoms and the psychodynamic stuff was not helping even after a couple of months- the CS helped and after two appointments, I am back riding again. I have a couple of friends who see the same practitioner I do and their description of release of pent up emotion from CS is more dramatic than mine.
