healing miracle
Supernatural cure event
A healing miracle is an extraordinary cure attributed to divine or supernatural intervention rather than medical treatment.
The term appears most often in religious contexts, where recovery from illness or disability is taken as evidence of God's power: Pilgrims travel to Lourdes hoping for a healing miracle.
The phrase can also be used loosely for any remarkable recovery that defies medical expectations.
