The placenta is so much more than an organ — it’s a life-giving connection, the bridge that nourishes and protects throughout pregnancy. For many families, honoring the placenta after birth becomes a beautiful part of the healing and recovery process.
At Namaste Birth, we offer safe, evidence-informed placenta services that celebrate this connection while supporting postpartum wellness. Every placenta is prepared with care and respect, whether your choice is encapsulation, tincture, keepsake, or print.
🪶 Encapsulation
Placenta encapsulation is a gentle, traditional practice that transforms the placenta into capsules taken during the postpartum period. Many parents choose encapsulation to support mood balance, energy levels, and recovery during the early weeks after birth.
🌸 Tinctures
Placenta tinctures offer a long-term way to preserve the energetic and hormonal benefits of your placenta. A few drops can provide gentle support during hormonal transitions later in life — including weaning and menopause.
🎨 Keepsakes & Prints
Each placenta tells its own story. Placenta prints — often called Tree of Life prints — create a visual reminder of the connection between parent and baby. Cord keepsakes are another meaningful way to commemorate your baby’s birth, symbolizing strength, connection, and the continuity of life.
💛 A Sacred Process
Our process follows strict safety and sanitation standards. We combine modern food-safety protocols with holistic care to ensure each preparation honors your body and your journey.
Placenta encapsulation and keepsake creation can be a powerful way to transition from birth into parenthood — grounding you in gratitude, balance, and renewal.
