2/3. Healing. There is no evidence that healers have any special powers, yet their patients seem to recover. In search of a reason, Kathy Sykes attends a rally by spiritual healer Benny Hinn , whose patients claim to be cured of conditions such as back pain and cancer. She then meets doctors who have invited healers into their surgeries, but it's in the US that she makes an amazing discovery. Patients who underwent a fake knee operation - no actual surgery took place - recovered as well as those who had the real procedure. Could each of us have a potent self-curative mechanism that healers have found a way to manipulate?
