                            "Women’s bodies have their own wisdom, and a system of birth refined over 100,000 generations is not so easily overpowered."  -Sarah Buckley

                            Placenta encapsulation is the process of preparing the placenta into capsules for the mother to ingest after the birth of her baby.  It is believed that ingesting the placenta returns the perfect hormones and  nutrients lost during childbirth back into the mother.  Each placenta is tailored perfectly for that pregnancy and postpartum period and helps to prevent “the baby blues” and post partum depression, increase breast milk production, shorten healing and bleeding time, give you more energy, and can even be helpful during menopause.

                            I prepare placentas in my home as many do not want to see this done.  I will pick up your placenta, prepare it, and deliver the finished pills back to you within 36 to 48 hours in most cases.

                            The total fee is $200.  $100 and a signed contract is due when I pick your placenta up and the remainder of $100 is due upon drop off.

                            "I am so thankful that I had my placenta encapsulated!  It was wonderful to be able to receive all the benefits of ingesting it without any of the 'ick' factors (I'm a little squeamish when it comes to stuff like that).  I was pleasantly surprised that the capsules had no taste or smell, they were just beautiful!  They worked amazingly well for me in the first few weeks when I was having a difficult time with breastfeeding.  I feel like returning all the nutrients from my placenta to my body helped me heal faster and balanced out my hormones during some challenging times.   I have the leftover capsules in my freezer and I'm about to begin taking them again (at 8 months postpartum) to cure my winter "blahs".  Thanks, Michelle!"
