Placenta Encapsulation
he placenta contains your own natural hormones and is perfectly made for you, by you. Experts agree that the placenta retains hormones. Reintroducing them to your system is believed to ease postpartum and menopausal hormonal fluctuations. Your baby's placenta, contained in capsule form, is believed to: balance your system, replenish depleted iron, give you more energy, lessen bleeding postnatally, increase milk production, help you have a happier postpartum period, hasten return of uterus to pre-pregnancy state, can be helpful during menopause. **Clients also have the option to add on Placenta Tinctures.
