The Placebo Effect
$6.19About The Placebo Effect
PLEASE READ. IMPORTANT: This app is not a substitute for medical treatment! We are simply embracing a proven effect of the mind. We're advocating using this app instead of supporting pseudoscientific alternative medicine (homeopathy anyone?!) that preys on gullibility and relies on spending huge amounts of money. If you have a medical issue, we advise seeing your doctor in the first instance because placebos can only do so much. We've priced the app to ensure that the user is aware they've paid something for it (so it works better) but hopefully without breaking the bank :-)
(If you don't believe our word on any of these claims then please visit http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Placebo_effect or just have a look yourself online for more details)
Do you have anxiety issues? Need help with an ailment? Are you a victim of IBS or depression? Maybe you suffer from stress, are wanting to stop smoking or just need motivation at the click of a button? The Placebo Effect can do all of that and more and without all the nonsense that surrounds the alternative medicine industry! Science has proven that placebos do work, even if the patient knows it's a placebo and they're actually more effective if they cost a little more!
On top of treating some problem you may have, we also recommend trying to use it as an anchor. This is a proven psychological technique where one associates an emotional response with an event - kind of like when you instantly feel better upon hearing your favourite song or when a certain colour reminds you of a person. To harness that response, use The Placebo Effect when you have a strong feeling e.g. if you're extra motivated at that moment and then when you're lacking in that particular emotion (to stay with the same example, maybe you've got an important exam coming up but you're stick of studying for it), just open up The Placebo Effect and follow the instructions below.
How to use as a placebo or anchor? It's easy: Remind yourself of what the placebo/anchor is helping with, click the button and watch the progress bar load. The effect can be repeated multiple times if necessary
