Placenta Encapsulation

Tracy Osborne- Encapsulator
Consuming the placenta pills after your baby is born has been shown to give many moms a natural way to rebalance their hormones after birth.  This natural process has been around for many centuries in many different countries.  Many mothers who have taken their placenta pills have reported less incidents of post-partum depression and increased milk supply.

I am a trained Placenta Encapsulator through Full Circle Placenta.  I use only the highest safety standards when encapsulating your placenta so you know you have a high quality product.

Where do I prepare your placenta?

NOVA Placenta Pills in Hands
I provide in-home placenta encapsulation.  I consider my services to be a full-service to my client, not just a  product.  The first few days in your baby's life are so important, and can be filled with so many questions.  By having me come into your home to prepare your placenta you receive the following:
  • Comfort in knowing you can see the process if you like, or not if you would prefer not to.
  • Full transparency with my safety and sanitation protocols.
  • A trained birth professional to see you in those first very important days to see if you need help with baby care, breastfeeding, or anything.
  • Ability to see the process and know your placenta is being treated with the up-most care.

What do I need?

All I need is a small amount of kitchen counter space and your sink.   I will fully sanitize the work area before and after I process your placenta.  The placenta will be prepared for dehydration on the first day, which typically takes about 1 hour to complete.  The dehydrator will be left on your counter overnight, and should not produce a smell.  After 24 hours, I will return to finish the process and your placenta pills will be ready within 1-2 hours! 

What do I need to do now?

All I need is for your to fill out the placenta contract, send in a deposit, and we are all set!  I will contact you with more information on what to do as time gets closer.  Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have.


Is placenta encapsulation safe?

Picture
YES!  I use every precaution to make sure you have a safe product.  I make sure to use all proper blood borne pathogen and food handling procedures.  When you have your placenta pills, you can be sure that you have 100% pure placenta from you with nothing else added.  I also explain how to store your placenta capsules for long term use, safety, and freshness.  While formal studies are still catching up,  consumers are reporting on a daily basis how safe the placenta pills have been for them.  There are also few indicators of not being able to use your placenta.  If you have any questions about the use of your placenta prior to deciding to encapsulate, please contact me!

Does it matter where your placenta is prepared?

Picture
It does not matter in the least where the placenta preparation occurs, as long as your encapsulator follows all safety procedures.  So why do I only prepare placentas in my client's homes?  I do not have a dedicated space away from my family and pets to be able to use for these purposes.  I also view encapsuling a placenta as a whole service.  I understand that the first few days following your baby's birth can be challenging sometimes.  Having a professional be able to come into your space who can help with common breastfeeding problems, questions about baby care, or how to balance your new life is important.  Placentas can be safely prepared in either your home or in a professional's space, but you may be looking for more than just a product.
