Please note:
TCM Method is recommended if the mother experiences an infection during the birth.
On some occasions, it is not possible to encapsulate the placenta. For example,
- if the placenta is heavily stained with meconium
- if the placenta has not been properly handled and stored after birth
- if the mother has a blood borne virus such as Hep B, Hep C or HIV/AIDS

Placenta Smoothie $100
This is an add-on service where I come and visit you soon after the birth to create your smoothie in the birthing suite. A small piece of placenta is used and combined with fresh fruit such as strawberries and bananas. This is blended together with water to create a delicious smoothie that can help you to feel energised and refreshed. AÂ completely new blender is used for each client, which you keep afterwards.
