Once you give birth, there is a flush of hormones and nutrients that leave your body along with baby and placenta. Your body starts going into overdrive trying to regulate hormones, nutrients, and milk supply for mom and baby - all of which are imperative for successful breastfeeding and recovery, both emotionally and physically.

Along with the warming properties the placenta is believed to possess, there are also many nutrients found in the placenta, which all aid in healing from the inside out. Three important hormones mom can benefit from are:

• Oxytocin, also known as the love hormone, a natural pain reliever that helps with bonding and milk supply among many other things.
• HPL, Human Placenta Lactogen, which promotes prolactin (a protein that helps to produce milk).
• POEF, Placenta Opioid Enhancing Factor, another natural pain reliever.
  

Placenta Encapsulation

Placenta capsules are a popular, powerful supplement to your postpartum health. Quicker recovery from birth, reduced chance of postpartum depression, and an increase of energy are just a few benefits you can experience from ingesting your encapsulated placenta. Further benefits include enhancing breast milk production and a better quality of sleep. These are all essential for you to be able to adjust to life with a newborn.

​The entire process takes under 72 hours. I will pick up your placenta from your birth place, ideally within 24 hours of giving birth. I start by cleaning the placenta and preparing it to be dehydrated. Once dehydrated, it is ground into a fine powder, placed into capsules, and personally delivered to your home.

Placenta encapsulation services include:

• Pick up from your birth place
• Drop off at your house
• 75-150 vegan capsules (depending on placenta size)
• Placenta tincture​
• Herbal sitz bath blend

I was looking for someone reliable and knowledgeable who could encapsulate my placenta in the Woodland Hills area when I came across Erica. After looking through her website, reading several reviews and speaking with her I knew she was the one. I texted her about 45 minutes after giving birth and she headed my way almost immediately. Once the encapsulation process was finished Erica dropped my capsules off personally at the hospital. She was absolutely stellar and made the process extremely easy and convenient, I can't imagine going any other route. Thank you Erica!"
