What is placenta encapsulation?
Placenta Encapsulation is the basic service of preparing the placenta to be ingested in capsule form. The placenta is gently rinsed and drained, then steamed to food safe temperatures. After steaming, the placenta is thinly sliced then fully dehydrated. It is ground and put into capsules. Women who encapsulate and consume their placentas often report boosts in energy, feelings of wellness and balanced moods, quick and smooth postpartum recoveries, and sometimes a boost milk supply.
What is a placenta tincture?
A Placenta Tincture is created from steeping a small piece of placenta in 100 proof or higher alcohol, generally a gluten-free vodka. The placenta steeps for 6 weeks in the alcohol and can be removed from the liquid or left in. Drops are taken orally (usually in juice or water) by the mother after her capsules are complete. A tincture is thought to be a shelf-stable, long term resource for the mother to have for continued placenta benefits.
What is a placenta print?
A placenta print is made by placing the fetal, or “tree of life” side of the placenta on a piece of thick, acid-free art paper before the placenta is rinsed of blood. You generally get the “tree of life” image of the placenta with the cord placed in a spiral or a heart. If the mother wishes, color prints can be done with a plastic barrier and food-safe dye (like a baker’s dye). A print can be a great addition to a baby book or nursery, with advanced notice for color preparation, prints can be done to match the child’s nursery.
What is digital photo art?
Digital photo art consists of arranging a rinsed placenta on a white background (a single-use food quality disposable cutting board). The umbilical cord can be arranged in a heart, spiral, infinity symbol, or even an initial depending on the length. A few photos are taken of the “tree of life” side of the placenta and filters are used to edit and create different looks.
