Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)
This is the oldest known & most commonly used for placenta encapsulation. The main difference between this method and Raw is the steaming process. The placenta is steamed with organic warming herbs per the principles of Chinese Medicine. Next, the placenta is sliced into thin strips and dehydrated. Once dehydrated we then grind the placenta. Finally, after the placenta is ground we fill the capsules with the powder.
Raw
This method is often used for those with a raw diet, clients who believe the heat will kill vital enzymes. Also, with the Raw Method some clients have reported a much higher burst of energy. The preparation for the encapsulation with this method is very similar besides the steaming. We skip that step and slice & dehydrate the placenta raw. Then, like the TCM we grind and fill the capsules with the dehydrated placenta powder.

The Process
Firstly, we recommend you speak to your doctor or midwife ahead of time to let them know you will be keeping your placenta so there is no issues and you are worry free the day of your delivery! If needed we have a waiver you can bring with your before your birth. If you are local we will pick up from the hospital or your home. We like to have a 24 hour turn around so moms can start taking their capsules as soon as possible. Especially our breastfeeding moms to give their supply that added boost! The fee is $250; half is due at pickup and the balance when we deliver. This covers us picking up your placenta, our equipment, returning your encapsulated placenta if local. If you are not local but still wish to have us encapsulate your placenta please contact us and we can work something out! We can next day mail pills if need be!
