Placenta Services
The placenta is a remarkable organ, grown to serve a specific purpose and released by the mother's body once it's intended function is no longer needed.
Many mothers are choosing to utilize the potential of the placenta by having it encapsulated for their consumption. Some mothers who have chosen to encapsulate have claimed:
It is claimed that the placenta retains higher oxytocin levels, hormones and essential nutrients that mothers may lack after birth and ingesting the capsules will help regulate these lower levels.
Placenta Capsules
Using traditional Chinese Medicine principles, I will process your placenta by steaming with lemon, ginger and peppers. After steaming, it will then be dehydrated and ground into a powder form to be encapsulated using vegetarian capsules. This process is said to be warming and replenishes the body.
You may also choose to have your placenta processed using the Raw method. Foregoing the steaming process, your placenta is dehydrated from the fresh raw state. This particular method is said to be more of a energizing boost.
Umbilical Cord Keepsake
The umbilical cord will not be included within the process of the capsules. Parents have enjoyed receiving the cord arranged separately in a keepsake pouch. I dry the cord in the shape of a heart, or a spiral (symbolic of fertility and birth). Few times, I have managed the baby's first initial.
Tincture
Using a piece of fresh placenta placed into a large jar filled with vodka or brandy, the mixture is
swirled daily for six weeks creating a tincture that can be used for many years to come.
Prints
Using the fresh placenta arranged in a eye pleasing way, prints will be taken using the natural remaining blood.
The prints often resemble a tree and the placenta has been referred to as the "tree of life"
Fees:
$200 pick-up and delivery to your home within 48 hours of receiving the placenta
$150 if someone is willing to drop off the placenta to me and pick up the finished capsules
