I am 100% dedicated to giving you the best quality care and service you deserve. Placenta encapsulation has many benefits that include less of a chance of postpartum depression, increased milk supply, higher energy levels and more.
Birth Doula & Placenta Encapsulation
I have always had a passion to work with mamas and babies for as long as I can remember. Being a mother myself, I know every mother's experience is different. I am here to help support you and your family in any way you may need during labor, delivery, and up to 2 hours after delivery. If you choose to encapsulate your placenta, I will take it with me when I leave the hospital. If I am not your doula, I will pick up your placenta from the hospital after delivery. Once finished I will hand deliver your capsules to you.
Forms of Placenta Encapsulation
There are two methods of placenta encapsulation. The first one is the traditional Chinese method (TMC) where the placenta is steamed before it is dehydrated. This causes the placenta to shrink resulting in fewer capsules. It also has lower levels of hormones than the Raw method. This method is known for having a smoother mood and hormone transition as well as a stronger milk supply.
The Raw method (Not steamed) is dehydrated at a food safe temperature. This method contains more capsules as it is not steamed before the dehydration process. It has a higher level of hormones which can result in feeling anxious or overwhelmed. Symptoms can be managed limiting the capsules consumed.
