Postpartum Support Services
These services are available to any new mother, whether or not I attended your birth.
Placenta Encapsulating
Heated Method-Your placenta is prepared and put into vegetarian capsules using the lightly steamed method. The placenta is not cooked all the way through and retains many nutrients and vital hormones. The Basic Heated method of placenta preparation warms the mother's body. Warmth postpartum is essential to replenishing and moving blood, balancing the Qi and energy and removing obstructions.
Raw Foods Method -Your placenta is prepared and put into vegetarian capsules using the Raw Foods Method of preparation which uses lower temperatures and no steaming. This method of placenta preparation yields a higher,more potent capsule.
Disclaimer:Hands of Gaia placenta services have not been evaluated or approved by the FDA. Placenta capsules are not meant to prevent or treat postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, low milk supply, inefficient healing or other physical ailments. Placenta capsules are a nutritive supplement and do not replace medical treatment. Purchase is for preparation services, not placenta capsules. Placenta capsules are intended for mother's own use ONLY.
Placenta Tinctures-A tincture is a substance that has been fermented in alcohol to extract the nutritional substances. When using placenta, we are taking a small portion of potent, raw placenta and fermenting it for 6 weeks in high proof liquor. Placenta capsules are mainly meant for the first 6 weeks postpartum and have a maximum 2 year shelf life if stored properly.
Placenta tincture is the most effective way to preserve your placenta for long term use. It can assist with hormonal changes, dips in milk supply, boosting the immune system, helping with menstrual cycles, transition, menopause and thyroid issues. Both the grandmother of the placenta owner and child of the placenta owner can benefit. I use 100 proof high quality spirits.
Raw Placenta Smoothies-Utilizing the placenta, raw, directly after birth is becoming an extremely popular and important step in a new mothers' postpartum healing. Using different variations of regular green or fruit smoothies, you can add a small piece of raw placenta to lend the mother the immediate benefits of placental consumption while she waits for placenta capsules. Taking raw placenta directly after birthing is a great alternative to pharmaceutical means of controlling bleeding.
Offering berry, green and mango smoothies. Can be made dairy free or vegan.
Herbal Yoni Steam-Vaginal herbal steam baths referred to as chai yok in Korean or Bajos (pronounced ba-hoes) in Spanish, have many health benefits, restorative qualities and offer superb self-care. These steam baths nurture a woman's most sacred area: her vagina. The steam brings heat to the womb, encourages and maintains healthy fertility, helps to relieve painful menstruation, uterine fibroids, uterine adhesions, cysts, scar tissue internally and externally, uterine weakness and uterine or cervical prolapse. It restores the suppleness to the outer vagina while cleansing the inner.
Herbs are added to the steam water to lend their properties to the process. The steam draws the herbal remedies into the vaginal tissues, which are extremely vascular and directly into the bloodstream, allowing for immediate healing to begin. Vaginal tissue is the most absorbent tissue in a woman’s body, so it makes perfect sense to focus there to support the reproductive system. The traditional assembly of bajos is to give direct access to the vagina, which cleanses the uterine membranes and vaginal tissue and helps to get rid of stagnant or incomplete emptying of menses during each cycle. You do not want to wear under garments when doing a vaginal steam. It is normal and healthy to have discharge and brown or pink bleeding after treatment. It can also be used to encourage regular menstruation.
A gentle blend of self-care herbal satchels. Includes 3 satchels (3 yoni steams).
