Placenta encapsulation services

Nourish your body. Restore your energy. Honor your journey.

Your body just performed a miracle–now it's time to replenish and heal. We offer placenta encapsulation services designed to support you during the essential first weeks after childbirth.

Why choose placenta encapsulation?

This centuries-old practice has been embraced by cultures around the world. Today, many mothers turn to placenta encapsulation as a way to promote balance, restore energy, and support emotional well-being after birth. Those who take placenta capsules often report improved mood, increased energy, and a quicker return to feeling like themselves.

Your birth and postpartum journey is unique. Placenta encapsulation is one way some families choose to support recovery and overall well-being after birth. At The Nest, we honor this tradition with thoughtful intention, care, and a strong commitment to safety.

Which encapsulation method is right for you?

We offer two preparation methods, so you can choose what best aligns with your body and preferences:

Traditional Chinese Method (TCM)
A gentle approach where your placenta is steamed with lemon and ginger–herbs traditionally used to support warmth and healing.
– A calming option for those seeking a gentler hormonal transition
– Recommended if you’ve tested positive for Group B Strep (GBS)
– Prepared with care, then dehydrated and encapsulated just for you
Raw Method (Inspired by Japanese practices)
This method skips steaming to retain more of the placenta’s natural hormonal content.
– Often chosen for its stronger energy boost and emotional support
– The placenta is sliced, dehydrated, and encapsulated
– Dosage can be tailored to your body’s unique needs

Both methods are prepared with intention, care, and within safety guidelines informed by the Association of Placenta Preparation Arts.
