Mount Hood can be seen above the Portland, Oregon skyline from our 7th-floor
facility.
We believe that KAYS is presently the
only U.S. public company engaged in securing an Oregon Health Authority
("OHA") license to open a psilocybin treatment center, aiming to
create a setting that is unmatched by any other facility and providing access
to relief from treatment-resistant mental health conditions, including
depression, anxiety, additions, and eating disorders.
Approximately every 40 seconds
someone in the world commits suicide.Psilocybin may soon be available as a
mainstream medical treatment for treatment-resistant depression (TRD) and other
mental health diseases, potentially providing a new lease on lifefor millions
worldwide for whom current medications do not work.
Our
Treatment Model
A recently published report on
psilocybin treatment prices in Oregon showed that Initial prices for one
facility range from $300 for a group microdose session to $3,500 for an
individual high-dose session, with another facility pricing first-time
full-dose treatments at $15,000 (these prices do not include the cost of the
psilocybin, which can run from $300 to $500).
KAYS expects its planned model
facility to offer a superior setting, broader activity and treatment options,
integrated cultivation and processing, and accessible pricing, thereby enabling
us to deliver a superior treatment experience at a much lower price than the
competition, while still achieving profitability.
The Sacred Mushroom™ has
approximately 11,000 sq ft. and will provide visitors with access to our
microdosing café, private treatment rooms and group session areas, and activity
zones with yoga, listening stations, journaling chairs, and art expression for
distinctive, effective, and positive psilocybin treatments.
Timeline
KAYS expects to complete its initial license application within the next 30
days, and subject to OHA approval, intends to bring the facility online within
90 days. KAYS plans to operate The Sacred Mushroom™ as part of its Fifth
Dimension Therapeutics, Inc. subsidiary ("FDT"), which also plans to
work cooperatively with select pharmaceutical companies to maximize the
curative potential of psilocybin.
