Faith healers are using a form of hypnosis to effect change in the body. Believe it or not, this can actually work in some cases. It has nothing to do with religion, but rather, has to do with the power of the subconscious mind and hypnosis.

Modern medicine is not against such methods if they can be proven. There is a movement among some nurses called "therapeutic touch" where they believe they can help healing with touch. Others have tried to demonstrate prayer as being useful with double-blind cross-over studies.
Usually, the test results show that these methods are not very effective.
However, chaplains are an important part of hospital care because there are emotional aspects of pain and suffering that must be dealt with.

Actually, there are licensed holistic healers that travel from hospital to hospital. Some nurses even incorporate holistic healing into their practice.
The reason it's not prominent is because it's still not a widely-accepted practice, yet. However over the years, it's been gaining in popularity.

I believe in faith healers, but you won't see a real one on TV. When Jesus sent out his aposltes he gave them the power to heal, among other things. He also told them to go forth and do good without asking or accepting any compensation in return. The guys on TV are quacks preying upon fools.

There are many quacks and people trying to get money but there are true men of God. We can only be healed as God heals us through the prayers of Godly men.
Try the spirit and do not let yourself be deceived. Jesus Christ bore 39 stripes to pay for our healing. He gave his life to pay for our salvation. It is left up to each person whether they accept him and believe him for their salvation and healing.
Have a blessed Easter.
