Supporting Postpartum Wellness: Our Partner Spotlight on Hampton Roads Placenta Encapsulation
At Transitions Midwifery, we’re honored to walk alongside families during one of the most powerful and personal times of their lives—pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum transition. We believe in building a circle of support for every birthing person, which is why we love highlighting trusted local resources that help nurture healing and wholeness. One of those essential resources in Hampton Roads is Hampton Roads Placenta Encapsulation.
🌿 What is Placenta Encapsulation?
Placenta encapsulation is the process of preparing the placenta after birth—typically by steaming, dehydrating, and grinding it—then placing the powder into capsules for postpartum consumption.
Families who choose placenta encapsulation often report:
Improved mood and energy
Increased milk supply
Reduced postpartum bleeding
Hormonal balance support
Faster physical recovery
While research continues to evolve, many clients share positive experiences, feeling more supported during the early postpartum period.
