  ...it's possible that the weird psychospiritual probing you mean it to connote by medical analogy won't come across at all to anybody, which is probably marginally OK, because individual words the reader can sort of skip over and not get too bothered about, but there's no sense in pressing your luck and hammering on palpate over and over again).
