This service offers a variety of options for each person. Different packages are offered including placenta encapsulation, flavored capsules, pictures of your placenta, a placenta print, cord keepsake, and placenta tincture.
Placenta encapsulation is to have your placenta processed by cleaning it, cutting it, drying it, and encapsulating it in powder form for consumption. This method is used to turn the hormones, trace elements, stem cells, vitamins, and other placental nutrients into gentle postpartum support. This is not FDA approved or regulated in any way and no medical guarantees or claims can be made. Generally, individuals who choose to do this do so with the intention of helping balance their hormones after birth and improve their overall healing. Placentas are potent in hormones and are made specifically tailored to you and your baby each pregnancy. If you are unsure what to do with your placenta check out my placenta options document under helpful documents. Feel free to also do your own research.
After you finish taking your placenta capsules, generally around 6 weeks post-birth, you could begin taking your placenta tincture. A placenta tincture can be taken daily or as needed in times of stress. It can be taken when your menstrual cycle returns for the first time or even monthly. Weaning from breastfeeding is another huge transitional period where women tend to feel the effects physically, mentally, and certainly emotionally. Your placenta tincture is like your own multi-purpose tool that has a long lasting shelf life when stored away from direct sunlight.
Placenta Encapsulation is processed by cleaning it, cutting it, drying it, and encapsulating it in powder form for consumption using unflavored or berry flavored capsules in a glass jar.
Placenta Tincture is made by taking a small chunk of your placenta and placing it in a jar with a high potency alcohol and letting the alcohol extract the medicinal constituents through the process of osmosis, resulting in a concentrated liquid.
Placenta print or placenta art print are made by stamping a piece of paper onto your placenta to preserve the unique shape and tree of life pattern your placenta has. The placenta print is done with the blood for a pink/red hue dried and the art print is made with colorful natural food colorings.
Cord Keepsake (Based on each length of cord given and typically is a heart shape or love written out)
3 Photos of your placenta (Top tree of life fetal side, amniotic sac view as able depending on what is given, and maternal side of the placenta). These will be sent to you via text message and are non-professional.
Pick-up and Delivery included any location within my service area and a tour of your placenta upon pickup if desired.
We strive to provide high quality ingredients and organic where possible. We also use glass amber jars or bottles for our products for better preservation and longer storage. Our cord keepsakes come in a padded jewelry box wrapped with emerald satin ribbon. Our placenta art comes in a black and glass picture frame. The photos of your placenta are sent to you through a text message. Your overall package comes in a lovely gift bag.
