The placebo effect is a psychological phenomenon where a person experiences a perceived improvement in symptoms or outcomes after receiving a treatment or intervention that has no active therapeutic effect. The effect is believed to occur due to the individual's belief in the treatment's efficacy, leading to changes in subjective experiences such as pain perception, mood, or overall well-being.

Belief shapes reality. The mind’s power can heal—or deceive—when expectations meet perception.
