Placenta Encapsulation Services
Why should I consider consuming my placenta?
Dried placenta powder was recognised as a potent medicine in Europe for centuries and used to treat and cure many ailments, mostly those surrounding birth. However, since the late 19th century, most natural birthing methods have been replaced by modern birthing techniques, losing along the way many valuable traditions practiced for centuries.
Many women believe that consuming the placenta after birth may have improved energy levels, increased breastmilk production, and slowed or stopped postpartum haemorrhaging, thus supporting a healthier postpartum recovery.
What is so special about my placenta?
The placenta has long been thought of as a magical part of the creation of a baby.
This incredible organ is uniquely designed for your baby and is an integral part of your pregnancy and birth.
The placenta physically connects you to your unborn baby, feeding essential oxygen, nutrients and vitamins.
During and after birth, women lose 1/8 - 1/10 of their blood supply from the bleeding wound left inside the uterus, where the placenta was attached during the pregnancy.
When the mammalian placenta is consumed, it is suggested that it helps to make up for this loss by giving the new mother essential fats, proteins, iron and essential hormones to heal wounds and aid the body in self-recovery after birth.
Will placenta capsules help prevent the baby blues and/or postpartum depression?
The baby blues’ are a known symptom of birth and mothers are told that they may feel sad, anxious and very emotional around the third day after the birth, usually when the milk comes in. These symptoms can sometimes develop into post-natal depression.
Studies have shown that the symptoms of post-natal depression can be linked with the severe lack of essential nutrients such as vitamin B6 and hormone CRH (our stress reducer hormone), both which are of high supply in the placenta.
Consuming the placenta in raw smoothies or in capsules is thought to nourish the mother, replacing lost essential nutrients and hormones following birth and may entirely prevent the baby blues and post-natal depression.
Can I encapsulate and also keep some placenta to bury?
Yes! We are strong supporters of burying your baby's placenta and connecting your baby to the earth. If you would like to bury some of the placenta, and encapsulate the rest, this can definitely be arranged.
