Encapsulation:

I struggled a lot after the birth of my first child – low milk supply, PND symptoms, etc – and I heard that placenta encapsulation had the potential to help with these issues.

My recovery and milk supply were 100% better with this birth than with my first birth! In part, this had to do with my shorter labor and the time of the birth. But I’m certain the capsules also gave me more energy, helped me be more balanced, and increased my milk supply.

I would definitely recommend it. Placenta encapsulation made the recovery after my second birth so much easier than the recovery after my first birth.

Lori

It meant a lot to my partner and I to have Mel in our corner the entire time. During labor, we kept getting new nurses and new midwifes, while Mel provided much appreciated continuity of care. The frequent bodywork while in labor helped tremendously. Bodywork is my favorite healthcare modality and I am sure I would have been in a lot more pain and stress without her healing touch. Mel is full of knowledge and experience regarding pregnancy and labor, so it was great to use her as a resource whenever something came up.
