When it comes to healing the sick, is it done through the Priesthood (Authority), Power (Faith) or Placebo (in our mind)? In the 21st Century, we use Consecrated Oil (Pure Olive Oil) and Anoint the Head of the Sick. What did they do historically in the LDS Church and in the end, does it matter how it is done?
