Your Placenta

The placenta has long been thought of as a magical part of the creation of a baby. This incredible organ, grown in your womb and uniquely designed for your baby, is an integral part of any pregnancy and birth. The placenta connects your body with your unborn baby supplying essential oxygen, nutrients and vitamins, all needed to grow your precious baby.


Many couples decide to honour the organ that has nourished their baby for nine months by burying it in the garden with a tree planted to mark the spot.
However it is possible for you as a new mother to continue to benefit from it’s properties.
I can make arrangements to have a small part sent to Helios Ltd. who can make it up into homeopathic remedies for use by both yourself and your children as they grow up.

As one of I.P.E.N’s encapsulation specialists, I am also now delighted to offer a Placenta encapsulation service. Your placenta is amazingly rich in iron( for anaemia), prostaglandin ( helps uterine involution), vitamins and oxytocin ( helps lactation) so it seems a shame for this to go to waste. Most mammals (including herbivors) instinctively consume the placenta. Encapsulation provides a palatable means of consumption and as well as helping to achieve balance following birth the capsules might prove helpful at the menopause. Studies suggest that it may play a crucial part in avoiding PND and aid milk production. I can also make an essence from part of your placenta, think of it as a personalised “rescue remedy”

For more information please look at www.placentanetwork.com where there is also information on hiring a kit for D.I.Y. encapsulation.

Creams and salves can also be made from your placenta, contact Hannah Kime for more information - www.hannahskincare.co.uk
