Placenta encapsulation

Placenta encapsulation

Nature’s birth recovery remedy

During pregnancy, your body grows the placenta, an organ with unique genetic properties, in just three months. It gives your baby oxygen, nutrition and protection against harmful substances, and produces hormones to support you. 

Once your baby is born, the placenta still holds your personal mix of hormones, nutrients and minerals. 


This balance is unique to you, and can’t be replicated in any supplement. That’s why placenta remedies can provide a powerful healing effect post-birth, including stabilizing your hormones.


Why mothers choose placenta remedies

  • Faster postpartum recovery
  •  A daily energy boost
  •  Increased milk production and flow 
  •  Restoration of iron levels in the blood
  • Reduced risk of postnatal depression 
  •  Stabilization of hormonal fluctuations
  •  Faster healing of internal wounds


Are placenta remedies safe?

Absolutely – as long as they’re prepared safely. Kim van Galen is trained to do this by APPA (Association of Placenta Preparation Arts) and meets gold standard safety requirements for placenta preparation.

Placenta remedies

Did you know that the placenta can be processed in various ways? Each method offers its own unique benefits and applications. A popular choice is having placenta capsules made, but you might also consider a nourishing placenta smoothie, a tincture, or even a soothing balm.

The following is included with every placenta order:

  • Phone consultation
  • Placenta capsules
  • A cool bag with a closeable bucket, instructions for use and storage, gloves and an instant ice pack.
  • Dried umbilical cord as a valuable keepsake
  • Picture of the placenta

Placenta smoothie

(2-4 portions, only available in combination with capsules)


Placenta smoothies are made with coconut water or almond milk as the base, with fruit and spices for flavor, and a piece of raw placenta. Smoothies are perfect to bridge the time until the placenta capsules are ready.


The benefits other moms have noticed are:

  • An immediate, much-needed nutrient boost 
  • Reduced postpartum bleeding
  • Faster return of strength and balance
  • Hormone rebalancing, and reduction in 'baby blues'
  • Stimulation of milk production

The smoothies are made shortly after birth, and you’ll have two more pieces of placenta to keep in the fridge to make smoothies for the following days.
