Wellness retreats featuring spa treatments and yoga classes have long attracted travelers.<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

But now a new trend is emerging: psychedelic retreats. These retreats are often structured travel experiences in which participants use psychedelic substances<\/a> such as psilocybin (magic mushrooms), ayahuasca or other plant-based medicines.<\/p>\n

Hadas Alterman, a psychedelic medicine attorney in Washington, D.C., told Fox News Digital\u00a0she’s seen a rise in the popularity of these retreats.<\/p>\n

HOT TRAVEL TREND HAS PEOPLE PRIORITIZING WELLNESS, PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES: ‘KEEPS ME MENTALLY SHARP’<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“This paradigm could signal that the hard line between \u2018clinical intervention\u2019 and all other uses \u2014 spiritual, personal growth,\u00a0recreational \u2014 is giving way to a spectrum, where psychedelics serve people who aren’t in crisis but aren’t merely thrill-seeking either,” she said.<\/p>\n

The retreats are usually led by facilitators, shamans or therapists. They take place in destinations in which certain substances are legal or culturally accepted.<\/p>\n

“Legality varies wildly across the globe: Psilocybin truffles are sold in the Netherlands, ayahuasca is protected cultural heritage in Peru, and Jamaica has no restrictions on psilocybin,” said Alterman.<\/p>\n

“Popular retreats<\/a> operate in these permissive countries as well as in Oregon and Colorado, where supervised psilocybin use is now legal under state law,” she added.<\/p>\n

Celebrities and athletes have hopped on the trend \u2014 with NFL star Aaron Rodgers<\/a>\u00a0even attending a few psychedelic retreats in South America and Costa Rica.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the\u00a0Psychedelic Science 2023<\/a>\u00a0Conference in Colorado, Rodgers, who has credited ayahuasca with helping him with his MVP Awards in 2020 and 2021, was enthusiastic about his experiences.<\/p>\n

“We have the opportunity to change the conversation by dispelling these archaic myths about the dangers of them or the negative side effects or whatever might be and start\u00a0to share the actual wisdom and truth about it,” said Rodgers, as the New York Post<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n

“I think that\u2019s how we move this conversation forward \u2026 More people [need] to be out there [and] comfortable talking about their own journeys. Their spiritual journey, their medicine journey, their ceremonies. So we can bring this to people who need it,” he also said.<\/p>\n

A report published in JAMA Psychiatry entitled, “Essentials of Informed Consent to Psychedelic Medicine,” relayed concern about the use of psychedelics<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Psychedelics have unique properties that complicate the informed consent process. They often produce intense subjective experiences that are difficult to explain, predict or comprehend, especially for psychedelic-naive individuals,” the authors wrote in the 2024 report.<\/p>\n

The report added that patients may not truly understand what they\u2019re agreeing to when using psychedelics, and that there are seven risks involved.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Researchers say the risks are “the possibility of short- and long-term perceptual disturbances, potential personality changes and altered metaphysical beliefs, the limited role of reassuring physical touch, the potential for patient abuse<\/a> or coercion, the role and risks of data collection, relevant practitioner disclosures, and interactive patient education and comprehension assessment.”<\/p>\n

The authors added, “These effects can include profound perceptual changes or hallucinations, mood disturbances, paranoia and an altered sense of self and reality.”<\/p>\n

Tom Feegel, founder and CEO of Beond \u2014 an ibogaine treatment clinic network focused on addiction, PTSD, depression and anxiety, primarily in Mexico \u2014 told Fox News Digital that retreats have grown in popularity as people search for treatments that work for them.<\/p>\n

“What\u2019s emerging is a fully licensed and medically supervised approach to help the brain and body<\/a> create lasting change \u2014 delivered by physicians and nurses in a way that feels both rigorous and deeply human,” he said.<\/p>\n

“Mental health<\/a> is now core to how people think about performance, relationships and longevity,” he said. “There\u2019s a growing openness to approaches that don\u2019t just maintain the status quo, but help people actually move forward. People no longer want to \u2018numb\u2019 or manage symptoms with medication \u2014 they want real, lasting change.”<\/p>\n

San Francisco Bay area-based Feegel said demand is increasing for something that can “create meaningful, durable change, ranging from people who haven\u2019t found satisfactory relief in conventional care to high-performing individuals and professionals focused on optimization.”<\/p>\n

Feegel said the wellness trend<\/a> represents a shift “from managing symptoms to restoring function, resilience and a sense of possibility.”<\/p>\n
