The Encapsulation Process
A simple, four-step process from labor day to a finished package delivered to your door.
- 01
Call or Text Me
When you go into labor, send me a call or text so I'm aware and on standby. Once baby has arrived, another quick message lets me know it's time.
- 02
I Pick Up Your Placenta
I collect your placenta directly from your place of birth and get to work — my typical turnaround time is 24–48 hours.
- 03
Traditional Preparation
On day one, I clean the placenta, remove the extra membranes and umbilical cord, then steam it with lemon and ginger before dehydrating, using the traditional Chinese method unless otherwise requested.
- 04
Encapsulation & Delivery
On day two, the dried placenta is ground into a fine powder and placed into capsules. I deliver your finished package directly to your home, typically within 3 days of birth.
