Traditional Chinese Method Package

Description

Placenta encapsulation in the form of the Traditional Chinese Method (TCM) is inspired by Traditional Chinese Medicine. These capsules are made by gently rinsing, preparing and steaming the placenta over an infusion of fresh lemon and ginger before the dehydration process. Lemon being a grounding remedy, which alongside ginger aids in circulation and the distribution of healing properties throughout the body. The theory of TCM is that new mothers are depleted of qi (pronounced “chi”, meaning vital life force) because part of her life essence is lost when giving birth, making her yin (cold) and yang (hot) imbalanced. The steaming of the placenta is said to restore this imbalance and bring warmth back to her body. The steamed method of encapsulation will yield fewer capsules due to the shrinking of the placenta, but the effect will be a softer/ less potent energy. Hormones and nutrients are still present but some vitamins such as vitamin C, B1 and B6 are destroyed. Recommended for mothers with a history of anxiety whose primary concern is PNA or baby blues.
