They overlooked what is clearly the most rational explanation:

A subset of humanity has psychic healing powers, and some of these were included in the group of prayer-givers. Of course, their powers are weak and untrained, so having them keep the patients "in mind" has about the same effect has having them throw tiny bottles of penicillin at the patients. What is needed is a Charles Xavier to show these folks how to make it work.
