*What's different about my process?
​
As I am a Chinese herbalist, I am uniquely qualified to add herbs to your encapsulation process that are suitable to your individual health situation. Therefore, my preparation is tailor-made to each individual.
​
​
​​
Process:
Wherever you give birth, be sure to have a cooler, ziploc bags, and emergency ice packs. Placentas need to stay refrigerated until dropped off for encapsulation. If drop-off is >3 days from birth, the placenta needs to be put in the freezer.

Capsules

Tinctures: can be used to help
mother with baby blues, lactation, and can also be given to the child to help with separation anxiety or prolonged illness. They stay good forever! -
