Placenta Encapsulation & Use

The placenta is an organ that develops in the uterus during pregnancy. It provides oxygen and nutrients to the baby and removes waste products from their blood. After birth, there are a number of things you can use this amazing organ for!

Traditional Encapsulation:

The Placenta is gently steamed. It is then dehydrated and ground into a powder and put into capsules.

RAW Encapsulation method:

The placenta is dehydrated from its raw state, ground into a powder and put into capsules. People who follow a raw food diet may prefer this method however there is no research proving it holds more nutritional value than the traditional method.

Placenta Prints:

A print is made of your placenta showing the "tree of life" right after birth. Your baby's name, weight and birth date are then stamped onto the page and can then be framed.

Tinctures:

A small piece of placenta is placed in a bottle with 150 proof grain alcohol. It can be kept for many years to be used in times of transition or stress. Great for menstruation and menopause.

Keepsakes:

Your baby's umbilical cord can be dehydrated in different shapes, depending on its length.

Some people choose to display it in a shadow box. If no cord keepsake is wanted, the cord can be included in your capsules.

Some folks choose to plant their entire placenta or a part of it beneath a tree.
