Placenta Encapsulation

Placenta encapsulation is the answer to postpartum struggles that many women face, but few speak about. Growing a baby takes a lot of energy and resources out of the human body, and placenta encapsulation allows a woman to restore some of those lost nutrients in a sanitary, manageable way. You take your placenta capsules along with your daily vitamins and since it is made of your own hormones and nutrients, it is lock and key for your body. If you would like to learn more about the reported benefits and what it takes on your part, there are many reliable studies and we are always happy to answer your questions or to fully explain the process.

​

Lafayette Placenta Encapsulation has extensive experience in safe placenta encapsulation, and when you choose to hire us, you will discover that everything has been considered. First, you register for our service through an easy, online form and we will email you with a quote and service agreement. Then, we provide you with a specially-designed placenta transport kit, mailed to you about a month before your due date, that you will pack in your go-bag for the hospital or birthing center. Let your midwife or doctor know that you will be saving your placenta in this kit—they will understand. Call or text us and we will be by to pick up your placenta and deliver it to our annually board-approved placenta lab to turn your placenta into capsules.

 

Measures are taken every step of the way for safety. Then we deliver your encapsulated placenta to you and answer any questions you may have about use in a consultation either in person or by phone. We are also available to you after the fact at any time for questions, concerns or simply for encouragement or further resources to support you in your postpartum.
