I don't claim to be an expert on negs, however I do recall RB writing somewhere that moving energy to the area(s) of an attachment weakens it to a degree relative to the amount of energy. I believe this is the logic behind the 'mole marking' method described in PPSD.
Now I'm not saying that was a neg attachment, and at this point I wonder if it matters. Either way, that area was helped by what you did.
As for the guiding of the 'poker', it reminds me of the method where you use a stick to locate water. In either case, I have no idea why it works, but as long as it does, who cares? That's my two cents on that
