At the end of this service some traditions will open the Gospel and the person (I have also seen two) is placed over the afflicted's head. You might also see the book moved in the sign of the cross. These services are returning to many places in the US so ask around if you are interested in seeing this service performed. Also, SVS Press has an excellent book on the topic (see my review here). Be aware that the service can stretch beyond two hours in length, so wear some sensible shoes.
