PLACENTA ENCAPSULATION
We are the leading placenta encapsulation service in North Queensland. Servicing families in Cairns, Innisfail, Mareeba, Mossman, Cooktown, Atherton Tablelands and other local areas. If you are not local but can get your placenta to us, we can encapsulate for you and then post to you.
The placenta has nourished your baby during the womb time and once your baby is born your placenta can be ingested to nourish you. There are many ancient cultures that have used the placenta for nourishment physically, emotionally and spiritually.
Having your placenta encapsulated is a simple way for you to incorporate this nourishment into your postpartum time. Let us take care of the preparation, so that you can focus on getting to know your new baby.
Placentas can be processed to encapsulate using 2 methods….. Raw, or Cooked (TCM – Traditional Chinese Method, steamed).
Your Placenta will be washed, either sliced raw and dehydrated, or steamed, sliced and dehydrated for 12-14hours, ground to a powder and then encapsulated.
The number of capsules your receive depends on the size of your placenta. Usually somewhere between 80-200 capsules. Raw encapsulation usually gives more quantity than TCM.

Testimonials
Thank you to Jillian for taking great love and care during the encapsulation process of my placenta. My milk supply was fantastic and great energy postpartum. The packaging was eco friendly and the little gift of the dried our cord was lovely keepsake. Shellie
I had my placenta encapsulated by ZaMama doula and birth keeper. I ordered half raw and half TCM. I gave my placenta to Jillian two days after I gave brith and received my pills the next day. I started taking the pills three days after my son was born. I had an emergency caesarean after having a 12 hour labour. So I was scared that due to the caesarean and the trauma my body was put through, I might have a longer recovery and that my milk would not come through as quickly.
But since taking the placenta pills my milk came through day 4, I did not suffer from the baby blues and was out and about taking slow walks on day 5. I was on a high, my energy levels were up and my body felt amazing. I also noticed that my hair, skin and nails are all really healthy and strong. I did not have any side effects from the pills and was able to take them easily everyday.I would highly recommend ZaMama, she is professional, helpful and it truly is a fantastic service she provides.
