===With people flocking from hundreds of kilometres away under the impression that it could cure them of their sickness, many human remains excavated from burial mounds. The bodies of the people have shown signs of injury or illness, while chemical analysis of teeth have revealed that they came from as far afield as Ireland, Wales, and northern England.===

===Archeologists Geoffrey Wainwright and Timothy Darvill said the content of graves scattered around the monument and the ancient chipping of its rocks produced amulets which indicates that Stonehenge was the primeval equivalent of Lourdes which is a French shrine that supposedly cures the sick.===

Summarising all this I think that since this theory is backed up with quite a lot of information and evidence that this theory could be one of the more reasonable theories for why Stonehenge was used.
