Psychedelic therapy in Belgium
Psychedelic therapy is currently not allowed in Belgium and we expect Belgium to remain conservative and continue the ban for at least a few more years. In the meantime, research into the positive effect of psychedelics on the psyche continues, mainly in the United States, United Kingdom and the Netherlands. Due to various reports in the Belgian media, in particular about magic truffles and mushrooms (active ingredient psilocybin -> psilocin), legalization in Belgium may come sooner than expected.

Lots of truffle sessions and ceremonies for Belgians
Recently there has been a relatively large amount of media attention in Belgium for the healing effects of psilocybin. Especially after Selah Sue's story, many Belgians come from Belgium to the Netherlands for psychedelic ceremonies as it is illegal in Belgium. Another factor is of course that here in the Netherlands we have had much experience with the use of these psychedelic substances. We regularly hear from our customers that doctors in Belgium suggest our services 'off the record' as an alternative to regular care, which is then inadequate. In the first quarter of 2022, approximately half of our customers came from Belgium!
Most Belgian customers come to the Netherlands in small groups of 2-4 people and use our Psychedelic Loft space in Schiedam. After the session, they spend the night in Schiedam before returning home.

Open truffle ceremony
It is also possible to participate in an open truffle ceremony. During an open truffle ceremony, the group is not closed and there are a maximum of 5 other participants present. It is good to consider what you like. Some customers find connecting with strangers an advantage and others prefer more privacy and personal attention.

Nominate a location yourself
We also come to locations within the Dutch borders. It is therefore possible to rent a holiday home, Airbnb or a hotel room and do the session there. This way you can see for yourself whether there is a particular place that suits you well.

Other countries
Wherever you come from, you are of course welcome. The spoken languages are Dutch and English. If you do not speak these languages, you can bring your own interpreter. We also recommend booking the day after the session as a recovery day and if this is the day of the return flight, make sure this flight is not too early or postpone the return flight a day.
What do you want a psychedelic experience for?
Do you have a spiritual or therapeutic reason to participate in a psilocybin session? Or are you curious about the effects and do you want a safe setting? In any case, we have a lot of experience when it comes to therapeutic reasons and we therefore offer personal preparation to get the most out of the session.
