Placenta Encapsulation
The placenta is a powerful connection between mother and baby, nourishing life and symbolizing their bond throughout pregnancy. Honored in many cultures, it holds deep meaning and potential for healing. Placenta encapsulation offers a way to continue that connection into the postpartum period, supporting recovery through tradition and care.

Placenta Encapsulation
The placenta is your baby’s first home—a vital organ that nourished, protected, and sustained life. Across cultures, it is honored as sacred, not discarded. We recognize the importance of this connection and offer families the option to continue that care through placenta medicine.
While birth education often focuses on labor and delivery, the placenta is rarely mentioned. Yet, more families today are reclaiming traditional postpartum practices, including consuming the placenta through encapsulation, tincture, or burial rituals. Placenta encapsulation is a holistic approach believed to support postpartum recovery by promoting energy, emotional balance, and milk production.
If you feel called to this practice, we offer placenta encapsulation using Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) protocols, with respect for both tradition and your individual healing journey.
Placenta Encapsulation Bundle – $350
Includes:
Pick-up and delivery of your placenta (within 48 hours)
Encapsulation following TCM protocols (steamed, dehydrated, and encapsulated)
Color print of the placenta
Dehydrated umbilical cord keepsake (when cord size permits)
We honor your right to choose what feels right for you—whether that means keeping, consuming, or ceremonially burying your placenta. We’re here to support you without judgment.
