Why is there a health screening process?

At Synthesis, safety is our number one priority. Although the retreat experience can be beneficial for many, for some it’s not appropriate to consume truffles containing psilocybin. These include people who have medical contraindications relating to their physical and mental health.

Our health screening process aims to mitigate the risk for our participants during and after retreat. We have a dedicated screening team that assesses each application with careful consideration and takes into account the latest research and guidelines to inform our safety protocols.
