Placenta Encapsulation
I've encapsulated over 350 placentas in the Baltimore area in the last 7 years- it is one of my absolute favorite things to do. I even named my cat Placenta! I believe this organ is incredibly wise and sacred and carries tremendous healing potential to the new dyad postpartum. I am trained in the Traditional Chinese Method of preparing and encapsulating placentas- steaming the placenta with ginger and dehydrating it before putting it into pills. I also am able to encapsulate via the raw method- not steaming the placenta with the intention of preserving as many minerals and energy as possible. Please do your own research and let me know which method you prefer.
​
The tradition of ingesting one's placenta postpartum winds its way back through many generations and cultures, and is mirrored in nature. Every mammal consumes its placenta immediately after birthing it. I believe the placenta holds benefits for the physical body (it's said to be a postpartum "prenatal" vitamin) and the spiritual body of the newly postpartum parent. I am grateful to have witnessed its power to restore health and vitality to numerous postpartum bodies. I encourage potential clients to do their own research. This is not a magic bullet, one-size-fits-all modality.

At this time I am encapsulating all placentas in my home, picking up and dropping off at client's homes directly. I ask my clients to commit to consciously communicating with me about their unique birth and postpartum needs. If you are interested in working together, please send me a message through the portal below. Please include your estimated date of delivery, address, and any lingering questions you may have.
