Traditional Chinese Medicine Method
The Traditional Chinese Medicine Method (AKA “warm processed”) The belief is that a woman’s body is cooled significantly during the process of birth and benefits from the warming properties of the steamed placenta.
This method of preparing the placenta for encapsulation involves steaming the placenta gently with herbs. Ginger, lemon and cayenne pepper are used in the steaming step. Putting the herbs in the steaming process is believed to bring out the placenta’s natural healing properties. Lemon is thought of as an antiseptic and helps to distribute the placenta throughout the body. Cayenne and ginger are warming herbs and thought to lend their properties to the placenta. The ginger specifically acts as a facilitator for energy and good blood flow. Then the placenta is sliced into small pieces and placed in a dehydrator. The amount of time it takes to fully dehydrate is really dependent on the size of the placenta. It can sometimes take over 24 hours. Once dehydrated, the pieces are ground up into powder form and packed into capsules.. The average number of pills is 90-150.
TCM is believed to have toning, healing, and warming properties. Since TCM is most associated with warming, it is recommended to avoid it when your body is “heated” from an infection such as mastitis, flu, or other illness resulting in a fever. Encapsulating your placenta can be a great addition to your postpartum healing and recovery. It’s benefits include and are not limited to:
Prevention or lessening of postpartum depression by balancing hormones

Increasing energy and pain relief
