Her set up was impressive, impeccably clean and organized, we just needed to provide the space. She talked me through the entire process, explaining each step and answered all my questions. She even got the umbilical cord dehydrated in the shape of a heart - amazing and beautifully unexpected!
What is Placenta Encapsulation?
Placenta encapsulation transforms your placenta into easy-to-take capsules that may support your postpartum recovery. Many of our clients report increased energy, improved milk supply, and a more balanced emotional transition after birth.
Is Placenta Encapsulation Right for Me?
Placenta encapsulation may be something you choose to incorporate into your postpartum routine if:
- you would like a smoother postpartum recovery.
- you are concerned about energy, mood changes, or milk supply.
- you value natural, personalized support for your healing.
How Placenta Encapsulation Works
At Blissful Birthing, safety is not simply a standard – it is the foundation of our practice. By adhering to the industry’s most stringent safety protocols, established by OSHA and the Association of Placenta Preparation Arts (APPA), we ensure your placenta is being treated with the highest level of professional care.
Secure & Thoughtful Handling
Upon reserving your due date, you will receive our curated transport kit with detailed instructions for proper storage and handling following birth. By personally transporting your placenta from the hospital to your home, you maintain total control over the integrity of your placenta, ensuring the highest standard of care and eliminating the uncertainties often associated with third-party shipping.

Our In-Home Process
We exclusively offer in-home placenta encapsulation, affording you the peace of mind that your placenta is safely prepared and remains exclusively yours. Our certified placenta encapsulation specialists process your placenta in the familiarity of your own space – it is never transported to or processed in a shared facility.
Whenever possible, we utilize single-use materials. All non-disposable equipment undergoes a three-stage sterilization process: a high temperature cleanse, a 20 minute immersion in a sanitizing solution, and a final thermal rinse.
Your Placenta Encapsulation Specialist will wear full personal protective equipment (PPE) to ensure the highest standards of hygiene and safety during handling. This includes: hair covering, protective eyewear, face mask, isolation gown, nitrile gloves, and shoe coverings. Before and after preparation, all work surfaces are sanitized using hospital-grade disinfectants. This meticulous approach ensures a controlled, contamination-free environment at every stage.
We invite you to observe the encapsulation process, allowing you to feel fully connected to each step of your placenta’s transformation. Our experienced placenta encapsulation specialists are happy to explain the process in detail, answering any questions you may have. This personalized experience ensures you feel informed, supported, and confident throughout.
Our process is minimalist and pure. Over two consecutive days, your placenta is gently steamed, precisely dehydrated, and ground into a fine powder. We add no fillers or herbs – only your placenta is contained within the vegan capsules. Flavored capsules are available upon request.
*Placenta encapsulation has not been evaluated by the FDA and is not intended to diagnose, treat, or prevent any medical condition. Clients assume full responsibility for their own health and are encouraged to make informed decisions regarding the use of placenta capsules.
What You Will Receive
Each of our packages is curated to honor your placenta and provide meaningful keepsakes while supporting your postpartum wellness. All packages include:
