The Art and Science of Placenta Encapsulation Workshop

Placenta Caps

Birth Ways International Doula Training offers a hands-on intensive workshop that prepares you to provide placenta encapsulation to clients. We present a balance of evidence-based science and traditional wisdom.

The workshop is open to anyone interested in placentas. You are welcome whether you plan to encapsulate or just wish to enjoy the workshop and sharing! Topics include a ‘placenta tour’, respectful and safe handling. There will also be a discussion of making placenta prints, drying the cord, and safety and sanitation.

Attendees will also learn OSHA guidelines and special circumstances. You will also discover the steps involved in preparing, dehydrating and making capsules, as well as tips on placenta smoothies. Navigating hospital policies will also be discussed.

Glove up! Cut, dry and encapsulate real placentas! You will see the entire process and practice it using real placentas, under the guidance of instructors that have processed hundreds of placentas.
