Why Placenta Encapsulation?

Placenta encapsulation is a nourishing way to support your body’s healing process after birth. Many mothers who choose to encapsulate their placenta report benefits such as:

  • Increased energy and mood stabilization

  • Faster postpartum recovery

  • Enhanced milk supply

  • Replenished iron levels

  • Reduced risk of postpartum depression

What’s included?

Every placenta encapsulation service includes:

  • Professional pick-up of your placenta from your birth location or home

  • Preparation using the TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) method

  • A clean, safe environment for processing

  • Placenta encapsulation into easy-to-swallow capsules

  • A beautifully dried umbilical cord keepsake

  • Delivery of your finished placenta products to your home

How it works

  1. Pick-Up: I coordinate with you to pick up the placenta from your birth location (home, hospital, or birth center) or directly from your home if already stored.

  2. Processing: Your placenta is processed with care and cleanliness in a dedicated, sanitized environment.

  3. Delivery: Your placenta capsules and umbilical cord keepsake are hand-delivered to your home, typically within 7-10 days.

  • Yes, when prepared properly in a clean, controlled environment, placenta encapsulation is considered safe for most people. I follow strict sanitation guidelines and use a dedicated space to ensure your placenta is handled with the highest level of care and respect.

  • While scientific studies are limited, many people report increased energy, improved mood, enhanced milk supply, and a smoother postpartum recovery. Every body is different, and I always recommend tuning in to how your body responds.

  • I use the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) method, which includes cleaning the placenta, gently steaming it, dehydrating it, grinding it into a powder, and encapsulating it. This process emphasizes warmth and nourishment to support your body’s healing during the postpartum period.

  • Each placenta yields a different amount, but most clients receive between 100–120 capsules depending on the size and condition of the placenta.

  • Many people begin taking their capsules within the first few days after birth. A common starting dosage is 1–2 capsules, 2–3 times per day for the first two weeks, followed by a gradual taper. I provide detailed consumption guidelines with your finished capsules.

  • Store your capsules in a cool, dry place—ideally in the refrigerator to preserve freshness. For long-term storage, capsules can be kept in the freezer.

  • In most cases, yes. However, if your placenta was sent to pathology or improperly stored, placenta encapsulation may not be possible. I’m happy to talk through your specific circumstances and help you make the best decision for your health and safety.

  • The placenta is processed in my dedicated, sanitized workspace—not in your home. This ensures that all placenta encapsulation services are completed in a safe, controlled environment that meets strict safety and sanitation standards. Processing outside of the home also allows your family to focus fully on bonding and recovery without disruption. All equipment is cleaned, disinfected, and sterilized between each client, and only your placenta is prepared at a time. Once encapsulation is complete, your placenta capsules and keepsakes are carefully packaged and delivered directly to your home to support your postpartum recovery.

  • Yes, absolutely! Delayed cord clamping does not affect your ability to encapsulate your placenta. Many families choose both—delayed clamping and placenta encapsulation—and experience the full benefits of both practices.

  • Placenta capsules are made with just one ingredient: vegetable cellulose (HPMC). They contain no preservatives, no additives, and are gluten-free, non-GMO, kosher, halal, and 100% animal-free. This clean and simple capsule material ensures your placenta is delivered in a safe, natural, and easy-to-digest form.

  • Yes! When choosing placenta encapsulation in Tampa, you have options for the type of capsule your placenta is placed into. By default, placenta capsules are made with vegetable cellulose (vegan) capsules. These are 100% plant-based, safe, and effective for masking the taste and smell of the powdered placenta—making them a great choice for families seeking vegan placenta encapsulation or those with kosher or halal preferences.

    For clients who prefer, capsules can also be made with beef gelatin upon request. Beef gelatin capsules are highly durable and contain natural collagen, which may provide added support for skin, hair, nails, joints, and digestion.

    Both capsule types work beautifully for placenta encapsulation. If you’d like beef gelatin capsules, simply let me know during your placenta encapsulation consultation so your preference can be accommodated. This ensures your placenta encapsulation experience is customized to your needs.

  • Yes! In addition to placenta encapsulation and umbilical cord keepsakes, I offer placenta tinctures. A tincture is a long-lasting remedy made by steeping a small portion of the placenta in high-proof alcohol. It can provide extended hormonal support and be used during times of stress, hormonal shifts, or even later in life. If you're interested in adding a tincture to your placenta package, just let me know during booking.
