Placenta ‘augments the Essence’ …in Traditional Chinese Medicine, this translates to “Placenta makes greater/stronger the vital force of a person.”
> benefits of placenta encapsulation <
encapsulation base rate is $230 beginning January 2025. I offer sliding scale options of $130-230. My rate changes depending on additional elements requested and travel fees. If you’re curious about sliding scale rates, please visit the COMMUNITY page.
I offer steam-prep encapsulation using warming elements like ginger and lemon (this can be customized based on individual needs). clients who choose this method often report a smoother emotional transition postpartum and a more stable milk supply. steaming the placenta tempers the hormones it contains and offers a softer reintroduction and reabsorption into the body over time.
encapsulation fee includes capsules, an herbal gift handmade by me, and a umbilical cord keepsake.
(I was trained in 2011 by Carrie Hankins, The Placenta Lady)

placenta salve without encapsulation still requires the placenta to be processed via steaming, dehydrating, and grinding into a powder. salve is customizable with oils and herbs. base rate is $200, additional herbs/oils $5+. I generally use olive oil, beeswax, vitamin e oil, and sometimes coconut oil. I do have shea butter, jojoba oil, and various other options as well.

warm river stones are placed in a bed of healing herbs, wrapped in a cloth of 100% Cotton Batik, gently warmed, and applied to the belly during early postpartum. the stones are also used during abdominal massage. grounding, soothing, deeply warming the core.

I offer a Meso-American traditional abdominal therapy technique that was taught to me by a student of Don Elijio Panti. it is a gentle and noninvasive modality. across many cultures, for centuries, womb and abdominal massage has helped treat menstrual issues, digestive issues, offered fertility support, assisted in healing postpartum, reduced scar tissue, addressed emotional distress, etc. the list of benefits is endless. sessions last from 60 to 120 minutes with an extensive intake process and a warm castor oil treatment. after our first hands-on session, I teach you self-massage on your belly, to continue your healing with your own hands, in your own time, in your own home.

I believe that offering my work at a sliding scale is an essential contribution to seeking broader economic justice and taking full account of the privileges and obstacles that allow us to access certain services, or prohibit us from doing so. It is my deep wish that my services be accessible to the people who want them. This sliding scale model is based on assessing the privileges and/or oppressions you carry with you, and deciding what to pay accordingly. Please visit my community support page for more information.
