Placenta Medicine

Grays Harbor Placenta encapsulation
As we feed and nourish our babies, our babies can feed and nourish us.  Our babies grow their placentas, which are so rich with vitamins, minerals, iron, protein and beneficial hormones.  All of these elements can help ease the transition from pregnancy into the postpartum. Almost every mammal eats their baby’s placenta after birth.  In Chinese Medicine, the placenta has been used medicinally for thousands of years for its restorative properties. 

What are the Benefits of Placenta Medicine?

Placenta Services

You may choose if you would like your placenta to be dehydrated raw, or if you would prefer to have it steamed with healing herbs beforehand.

Here at Natural Birth Services, we are happy to provide you with the following services:


  • Raw Placenta Encapsulation        $120
Many people believe that steaming the placenta destroys some of its nutrients. If you choose this option we will clean, dehydrate, ground and encapsulate your raw placenta.

  • Herbal Steamed Placenta Encapsulation        $140
This form of placenta encapsulation is inspired by Traditional Chinese Medicine, in which the placenta is cleaned and gently steamed with fresh lemon, ginger and chili, then dehydrated and put into capsules

  • Placenta Tincture        $30
Creating a tincture out of a piece of your placenta is a great  way to preserve your placenta medicine for long periods of time. Placenta tincture can stabilize your homones in the postpartum period, during your menstrual cycles, and during menopause. 

  • Placenta Art Prints and Cord Keepsake        $20 or free with purchase of encapsulation
Commemorate your pregnancy with a beautiful print of your placenta and an umbilical cord keepsake.
