About Placenta Encapsulation

Placenta encapsulation is the process of preparing a birthing person's placenta after delivery — dehydrating and grinding it into a fine powder, then placing it into capsules for postpartum consumption. Many families choose encapsulation as part of their postpartum plan, and at Womb Within Collective, we're committed to providing the safest and most beneficial encapsulation methods for our clients.

Every encapsulation is completed in a dedicated space reserved for this purpose, and we wear full personal protective equipment (PPE) to safeguard both our clients and ourselves throughout the process. We use single-use items whenever possible and follow sanitization protocols that exceed food safety standards, so you can feel confident your placenta is being handled with the utmost care. Jess is trained and certified through BEST Doula in placenta encapsulation. We use the Traditional Method, in which the placenta is steamed to an internal temperature of 160°F before being dehydrated, ground, and encapsulated for you to take home.

Benefits of Placenta Encapsulation

Some of the numerous reported benefits of placenta encapsulation include: 

  • Increased milk supply

  • Increased energy

  • Improved mood

  • Replenished blood loss from birth

  • Support & replenished hormones

  • Improved quality of sleep

  • Increased libido

These benefits are based on testimonials from moms and NOT to be taken as medical advice.

Quick Turnaround: Your placenta products are ready within 48-72 hours once I receive the placenta.

Placenta Encapsulation: These are used in that immediate postpartum time. You’ll get between 75-150 capsules based on the size of the placenta. Encapsulation involves two days of processing.

Day one: Starts with cleaning the placenta, making a placenta print, steaming the placenta to a 160° internal temperature, and placing into a dehydrator for 12+ hours.

Day two: Make the tincture, then blend the placenta into a powder, encapsulate into vegan 00 capsules. Deliver or have a family member pick up from the Womb Within Studio.

Placenta Tincture: A placenta tincture is made with high quality organic gluten-free vodka and is allowed to steep for at least 6 weeks. You can then use the tincture from the bottle or you can filter it. A tincture has an indefinite shelf life, making it a great resource to prolong the benefits of your placenta to be used during premenstrual, menopausal, or other hormonal times.

Cord Keepsake: The cord that connected you to your baby while she grew inside you, can be treasured through umbilical cord dehydration.

Placenta Print: The print is made using the natural blood of your placenta and made on watercolor paper.

Service & Privacy: Includes being on-call for your birth, pick up (or family/friend can drop-off), preparation and delivery with complete privacy & discretion. Once I have picked up your placenta, I transport it according to food safety standards, ensuring proper refrigeration and storage.

    If you have any questions or concerns you can contact me anytime

  • It can still be encapsulated! We will start with a consultation call ensuring the placenta was stored correctly and safe to be consumed.

  • I don’t have an additional fee for multiple placentas. You’ll already be paying double or more for baby items.

  • When I receive your placenta, I will send an invoice to collect payment before delivering your placenta pills.

  • If for any reason you decide not to move forward and have already paid, I will offer a full refund. This applies only as long as I have not yet picked up your placenta.
