So these wouldn't be things to try unless you are *very* adept at energy work- and very sensitive to those who come to you for help.
I'll list the different techniques separately. These mostly have to do with auric work.

First, if there is an auric tear. These are not physical wounds, but are auric wounds, usually for the astral travellers and warriors. They can manifest physically as a weakness or discoloration of an area, or as an actual wound. Normally energy flow in the area is weak, and there is a possibility of energy leaking.
So these need to be sutured.
Just like physical surgery, auric surgery must be handled with care. If the tear is relatively thin, there are options.
A patch can be applied either from replacement energy or from the wounded's own energy. Be careful where you take it from if so. It is best to have them generate their own patch if capable, because then there is less chance of rejection.
Also, you can suture a wound using threads that you spin from your own energy or threads spun from energy from a healthy part of the wounded's astral body. Suture the wound delicately, as the threads will help it to heal but if thin enough will eventually be rejected by the astral body and dissolve.
If the wound is jagged and a patch cannot be applied (long cut, etc) you can also pull the areas together and fuse them, as in cauterization. Be warned that this is not the best situation, and might cause physical pain for the recipient. It might also cause energy flow around that area to be disrupted and the scar might take longer to heal. Only use this method if the wound is leaking substantial amounts of energy and resists other methods.
NOTE [glow=red,2,300] All of these methods manipulate the astral body and should be used with care and only if absolutely necessary![/glow]

Removing foriegn objects
Just like a physical body, objects can become lodged in the astral body from forcibly removed links, certain astral predators, or a variety of other reasons. These intrusions must be removed because they cause damage to the energy flow and sometimes prohibit healthy flow altogether, if large enough.
The procedure is delicate, as in removing a tumor from the physical body. All traces must be removed with the smallest intrusion possible.
Manifest an astral knife or scalpel like tool and make an incision in a safe nearby area. Avoid like the plague all areas where energy flow is high or you could cause a lot of damage from energy leakage. Each situation is different. In as many cases as possible, you should manifest what you need to pull out the offending body whole. However, in cases where the body is large or lodged in a strange manner, you might need to incise it in half or quarters. Do this precisely and carefully as to leave no trace of the body.
Once assured that the body has been completely removed, assess the damage you have caused in removing it, and treat it as you would a wound. The gap in energy will fill itself eventually, but you must take care to leave as clean of a removal as possible, and to later close the wound so that it does not leak energy.

So either of the above are extreme methods for extreme situations... The average auric mess fixes itself. So if you don't do much of this kind of work, wait it out and see if it will just arrange itself for the better. It's good, if you do a proceedure like this, to keep your patient alert, hydrated, and if possible, have an assistant to apply energy should they lose a lot, and also to keep them awake, because you don't want them losing consciousness- a large amount of energy loss is a good way to put someone into a coma. Just in case there are random otherkin (mostly) or warriors out there who get hurt in the line of duty.
