A short flight from Seattle and San Francisco, and less than a 2.5-hour drive from Portland, Silo\u2019s first Oregon retreat will allow qualifying participants to experience Ketamine-assisted wellness benefits alongside nature. \u201cWhile ketamine clinics are a convenient and necessary choice for many, psychedelic-enhanced therapy depends a lot on mindset and setting,\u201d said Silo medical advisor and AIMS Clinic of Seattle co-founder Sunil Aggarwal, MD, PhD, FAAPMR. \u201cTraditionally, however, the natural setting has been preferred for those experiencing non-ordinary states of consciousness.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Silo has engaged experienced ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=rndjX1PPTxcmT9XHm1cEP7lkESdkZagpGB7U7-UhKhmOg7HUN9vRlDkez4znPCL3n2SNTt2KklPLfPKkcw8u9w==\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">clinic<\/a> operators Drs. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=bgooEGZ8H_Gnvy3QYCRx2-v7RvjyvtedUDmDimmimnTKPXQSz-8ixqj5qbehURzZfsodRaHMqng_LBwHvTAGjQ==\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Aggar<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=GYOF8MeFfnXA-pQ0Lby-Cc1laFZGMKJMHOhtIBIdAXKXP_sNK4FUkzeHSFnywbpdjiD9_pNqTPKKyLa36D5oQA==\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">wal<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=jjHXHzdu30qpBAsB9_fucSGZIWiXMes6Rp_hk4f4M7Xh-TfXJSX2ebkhi--s9EXzmDlM1iyBP1z1UydgTrB9S_vWrr1MedwOoRN9_rXGEco=\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Leanna Standish<\/a>, ND, PhD, LAc, FABNO to help develop the screening, retreat agenda, and protocols, as well as research outcomes.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">&#8220;We welcome the opportunity to activate on this aspect of our business,\u201d stated <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=K4pA3Bbzr_JegPPkqf6LqhU8u7Lzyuot9E04ucZOWTbDpYa2p09CDBRK7AK0TA5g1nG2EHkDtKpsMwolGJ1w57UcTsNt3k-ETFUqKC9YLLE=\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Douglas Gordon<\/a>, Silo\u2019s Chief Executive Officer.\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cSilo moved early precisely to be in pole position to deliver on these types of experiences and with the passing of the bill last week, we are both excited and motivated by the opportunity to help patients and validate our business model.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Oregon Attorney Mike Arnold, founder of Silo Wellness, stated, \u201cWe are very excited about the opportunity that Oregon, being the first state to legalize psychedelic mushrooms, presents Silo.
