Some people might refuse to use the technique if they don't believe that chakras exist. But you can totally just use the technique without having any kind of belief about it. You could just take an area of your body that's hurt her and say, what does this part want me to know? Maybe you don't get anything, but then you just kind of feel the pain and you, or the tension or whatever it is, and you say, or if this pain could talk, what would it say? And you see what comes up. It's interesting how often that ends up being insightful.
