How does it work:
The Placenta is a baby’s life force during growth in the womb and is a means of nourishment, energy, love and hormones from mother to baby, which is usually seen as a waste product, however research and thousands of years in other cultures have shown that ingesting the placenta supports the new mother with increased energy, nourishment that is well needed after being depleted at birth, has been known to prevent or decrease baby blues and post natal depression, replenishes iron levels, helps with pain and healing after birth, provides ongoing essential hormones including oxytocin (the love hormone) and helping milk supply. Every placenta is unique, and will make different amount of pills, I have had them range from 120-300 pills. It is sacred work for me, bringing back ancient traditions and love for birth and women. The placenta is such an amazing organ, it does whatever it needs to, to filter all that goodness to grow your baby. . I allow four days from delivery if fresh to return, if frozen 7 days to allow defrosting times. I use vegetarian, corn free capsules, if you have any allergies please specify.
Does it matter if its fresh or frozen: You can encapsulate either way, fresh is good if you have had pre conditions of post natal depression, low milk supply, or if you have had a rough labour and a lot of blood loss, a raw placenta smoothie straight after birth is best for this. If you cannot get it to me in three days I would suggest freezing as soon as possible, then it can be delivered to me at a convenient time for us both. Freezing doesn’t make the placenta lose its potency; it is more of if you cannot get to me in the three day window. It is then slowly dehydrated no higher than 40 degrees to keep the goodness alive, I don’t believe in ‘cooking’ the placenta as it destroys all the nourishment as done by raw foodists. It will be a dry powder than processed into capsules. (However if you wish to have your placenta Steamed like Traditional Chinese Method, please ask. This will incur an additional fee).
PLACENTA TINCTURE AND VIBRATIONAL ESSENCE:
Placenta tincture and vibrational essence is an added bonus that can be used to and long after the capsules are gone.
TINCTURE:
By tincturing a small piece of placenta in a high grade alcohol, you can increase the length and benefits of your placenta for both mother and child. The tincture can be used in any time of trauma, transition, emotional distress and for females, moon flow (period), and menopause later in life.
The tincture takes 6 weeks before use then posted to back you. If kept in a cool, dark place and looked after, the tincture can last for many, many years. You will receive a mother bottle and then a remedy bottle with instructions on how to make more remedy yourself for future.
VIBRATIONAL ESSENCE:
Is made with alcohol, apple cider vinegar or vegetable glycerin (depending on choice). The vibrational essence can be used in times of trauma and stress like rescue remedy, stimulates bodies life force and healing, transition, emotional disharmony, give to baby in times of distress, boosts immunity, helps females during their hormonal times in life.
Please contact me through the contact page to go through a brief health questionnaire and then book in your approximate encapsulation date.
The placenta must be either delivered to me within 3 days if refrigerated and up to 6 months if frozen can be longer but no guarantee will inspect once defrosted and asses whether it is well enough to be encapsulated. Any older placentas can be made into a vibrational tincture as the placenta doesn't touch the liquid: its vibrational essence is captured into the mixture.
Pick-up may be organised upon application and for an extra fee.
Most placentas yield between 120 –150 capsules, a 2—3 month supply if taken twice daily.
PLAENTA CREAM, BALM OR MASSAGE OIL:
Your placenta powder can be mixed into many different types of creams and emulsions to make an excellent skin healer. Placenta creams have been used by the rich and famous for many years to combat signs of aging. Healing properties of placenta cream/balm, massage oil: helps with c sec scars once dressings have been removed, hemorrhoids, perineal trauma, cracked or blistered nipples, eczema, sun burn, nappy rash, skin irritations, face cream, stretch marks and more. Balms are made with a beeswax base and creams are made with a calendula oil, rosehip oil base emulsion. Massage oils have a base of sweet almond oil or apricot kernel oil, can change if have allergies. Essential oils crystal essences and homeopathics can be added on request, made from placenta powder, tincture or vibrational essence (you choose).
LOTUS BIRTH ENCAPSULATION AND KITS:
What is lotus birth? Lotus birth is the practice of leaving the umbilical cord uncut, so that the baby remains attached to placenta until it naturally separates at the umbilicus as a cut one does, this happens between 3-10 days after birth. This prolonged contact can be seen as a time of transition, allowing the baby to slowly and gently let go of his/her attachment to the mother’s body. The placenta has to be carefully washed and dried properly to be able to encapsulate or made into a tincture, as you don’t want it to go off. If this does happen a vibrational essence can be made instead. If carefully prepared there is no reason you can’t encapsulate this amazing organ. After washing and draining placenta, you can start to prepare for the drying stage, by using ground up herbs and salt if you choose you coat placenta well (this gives it a yellow appearance due to the herbs used as in picture below), sometimes this needs to be done a few times a day with old mixture being dusted off, (depending on climate). You wrap it and place in placenta bag for easier carrying, these kits with all you require can be purchased through me by request $85 plus postage, order on contacts page, I will get back to you with colour preferences etc…

TESTIMONIES:
*I used Kasey's services and am extremely impressed with all her expertise. As well as being my doula, Kasey guided me through Lotus birth and care of placenta in preparation for encapsulation.
She prepared the herbs and salts to dry for the time during lotus attachment, and then encapsulated the placenta using raw dehydration methods (not steaming or cooking it - so as to retain as much of the nutrients as possible). The products I received in the end were:
prints of the placenta and cord in the form of a "tree of life",
a dream catcher made from the cord using crystals beads and feathers,
150 placenta capsules,
tincture,
vibrational essences,
and placenta balms. SO GOOD!
It is the best medicine I could have had after the birth.
I noticed how much the caps and tincture help when I didn't take them.
*Thank you Kasey, for all your assistance in my journey through the birth of my baby and beyond. Thank for being an exceptional Doula, healer and friend, and above all THANK YOU for my incredible placenta medicine!! I feel fantastic.
You truly are a gift to all soon to be, been and being mothers.
So much LOVE!
