Nourish Your Postpartum Recovery

with Placenta Medicine

Placenta encapsulation is a time-honored practice designed to support new mothers during the transformative postpartum period. Using the Traditional Chinese Method (TCM), this approach focuses on restoring balance, replenishing energy, and promoting overall well-being.

What is the Traditional Chinese Method of Placenta Encapsulation?

Rooted in the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine, this method views childbirth as a time when the body loses heat and energy, requiring warming and nourishing support to restore balance. The placenta, rich in iron, hormones, and essential nutrients, is gently steamed before dehydration—an essential step that tempers its potency and ensures a smoother reabsorption process.

How It Works : The Process

  1. Steaming – The placenta is carefully steamed with warming herbs, which are traditionally used to support circulation and energy restoration.

  2. Dehydration – After steaming, it is slowly dehydrated at a controlled temperature to preserve its beneficial properties.

  3. Grinding & Encapsulation – Once dried, the placenta is ground into a fine powder and placed into easy-to-take capsules for daily postpartum support.

Why Choose the Traditional Method ?

  • Supports Energy & Hormonal Balance – The gentle steaming process helps regulate the placenta’s hormone levels for a smoother postpartum transition.

  • Eases Postpartum Recovery – Many new mothers report benefits such as improved energy, mood stabilization, and increased milk supply.

  • Honors a Time-Tested Tradition – This method aligns with centuries-old TCM postpartum care principles focused on warmth and nourishment.
