People LOVE us!

​Shawna is amazing, I never had the pleasure of meeting her in person but my husband and her organized everything to have my placenta encapsulated and the cord made into a beautiful heart, all while I was in the hospital recovering. Thank you Shawna, here's to hoping we meet in person one day. You rock!!!!! 

To future clients: don't look any further and stop thinking about it, best decision you can make for you and your little one. I felt one with the earth and so proud of my body."

I had a great experience with Shawna. I went into labor before I even had a chance to contact her regarding encapsulating my placenta. I was able to make all the arrangements on her website and via email while in triage the night my water broke. She was very patient and accommodating while coordinating the pick-ups with my husband.  The artist rendering image of my placenta was a wonderful surprise.  Beautiful and I will keep that forever."

​I wasn't sure whether I wanted my placenta encapsulated, but after talking to Shawna I'm so glad I did!  Shawna is very knowledgeable, experienced, and makes the process super easy.  Her turnaround service was very quick, as she dropped off the pills a day earlier than I expected.  The placenta pills were great.  I definitely felt a boost in energy after taking them.  Thanks Shawna!"

Why Placenta Encapsulation BLOG
Jena University Research Video on You Tube (English Subtitles)
​Placenta Encapsulation has not been evaluated by the FDA. The person who gives birth to the placenta is the person that the placenta is intended for. There is a lot of anecdotal evidence about the benefits of placenta encapsulation and a little bit of research. It is up to the client to research their options and to make a choice that this is what is best for them upon hiring Bay Area Placenta Services.
