Prepared safely at home with strict sanitation protocols.

Placenta Encapsulation is a method of intentional preserving, processing, and consumption of the placenta by the birthing person. There isn’t substantial published scientific research surrounding the benefits of this practice, but there isn’t much clinical evidence that it can pose any risks either. There is also something significant to be said about the long-standing anecdotal and historical evidence supporting the benefits of placenta consumption postpartum.

Some benefits include:

• Improved milk supply

• Decreased chance of postpartum depression / mood improvement

• Hormone balance and iron restoration

• Support with postpartum physical recovery and bleeding

• Deepened spiritual and emotional connection to the process of birthing your baby

Terms that may render the service unviable: placental infection at birth, mishandling of placenta by medical providers between birth and pickup, and significant placental separation (around 25% or greater of the placenta retained or separated).
