OC Placenta Encapsulation

Very pleased with my placenta encapsulation by Courtney! Even though my baby came 3 weeks early she still met us at the hospital the very same day no questions asked! Once I had the pills I noticed the difference immediately! Highly recommend Courtney!

Courtney has encapsulated the placentas from both my girls and each time the experience has been great! She’s super sweet and very professional plus she delivered the caps to my doorstep! I haven’t yet had the chance to meet her in person but I’m so grateful for her and her service! If you’re considering encapsulation of your placenta, call Courtney!

Courtney was amazing!!! She met us at the hospital and dropped off the pills at our house right after the birth. I would totally recommend you use OC Placenta Encapsulation. The pills give you energy and help your hormones adjust to the changes after birth. 5 stars all the way!

I had my placenta encapsulated by Courtney and was so incredibly pleased with the results. First off, she had everything done in a timely manner and is so sweet and friendly. Seriously though, comparing to my first birth in which I didn’t encapsulate, the differences were night and day. During my postpartum period with the capsules, I had so much energy, never felt down or blue, made tons of milk, and slept well when baby slept. I am pregnant again and have no doubt in my mind that I will be using Courtney, I would never go through another postpartum without them. Courtney is a complete professional and I always know that I am getting a clean and quality product. I highly recommend Courtney!

As a midwife, there is no one else I trust when it comes to the safety, quickness and professionalism with Placenta Encapsulation that Courtney Ellis. She is so skilled at what she does and my clients reap the benefits of this ancient medicine.

I used placenta encapsulation for both my births and I never felt any «baby blues». In fact, if I did feel any sort of emotional roller coasters coming on, I could take 1 – 2 pills and ward it off. Courtney is wonderful to work with. The whole process is very easy. I 100% recommend placenta encapsulation with Courtney Ellis.

Courtney encapsulated my placenta with both pregnancies. She made the process (which the first time around was a little crazy sounding but I was up for anything that would help my recovery after the birth!) easy and quick. She is kind and professional and really care about the mamas she works with.

I just had my third child and for the first time I got my placenta encapsulated! I was so impressed with the care and quality Courtney provides… I truly believe it helped with my recovery. I really noticed a difference in my postpartum depression. I had energy and felt very level headed. Thank you Courtney for the great service.

Thank you Courtney for an awesome service! Truly appreciated how easy you made it for us!
Courtney was readily available to pick up the placenta at the hospital (was able to come down within half an hour of my contacting her), and delivered the capsules to our home 48 hours later (and on the weekend).
She is passionate about what she does, and it shows!
I would absolutely recommend Courtney and OC Placenta Encapsulation.
Thank you :)

I’ve used Courtney twice now to encapsulate my placenta. She’s so great to work with! She came to me within hours of notifying her and delivered the capsules with instructions to my house. She’s so responsive and helpful and just a sweet person. In those days after delivering my babies, it was always a comfort to have her stop by. And as a mom of 3 kids under 5, I can’t say enough about the placenta capsules. They’re like magic. Energy and mental stability in pill form — truly amazing!

My midwife Courtney encapsulated my placenta and I had it back within two days! I am so glad I had my placenta encapsulated because it really has made a huge difference! Using OCPE was affordable and quick and Courtney is also an amazing midwife for anyone looking to do a home birth!

If I could offer *any* advice to a soon to be Mama — it would be to hire a Doula! Wether or not you have a homebirth or a hospital birth, a doula is a steward that will be with you through the journey of your baby’s delivery. I did my research up front and knew that in addition to my amazing midwife, I wanted a doula to be there to support me and my husband. I didn’t need to look very far however — because OC Midwifery (see my other reviews) is partnered with OC Doulas. I hired Courtney Ellis immediately after meeting with her. Her contract was simple and straight forward and I knew that wherever my impending birth was to occur, her support would follow wherever I needed to be. Her pricing is very reasonable and some insurance companies might even reimburse you for these services!
During my labor and birth, Courtney was at my side. She provided me the space I needed — and the support that I so very much wanted. Having taken a Hypnobabies course, I was prepared as I could be going into the birth of my first child. However when practice goes into real life birthing — you NEED someone to help guide you back on path when you’re venturing into uncharted territory. Courtney provided massage to my neck and back, cooling cloths for my forehead, nourshiment and fluids for my (and my husband’s) journey, as well as copious support to the midwife team. During the delivery, Courtney captured photos and videos of my daughter’s birth that I will forever cherish. She aided me in my noviceness to breastfeeding — immediately helping my daughter & I forge this special connection just minutes after birth. As I basked in the glow of my new daughter — Courtney prepared to take home my placental for encapsulation. She even made a print of the placenta for me (see photo) that i will forever cherish. It reminds me of a dandelion!
The 2^nd bit of advice I’d offer to any new natural mama is to have your placenta dehydrated and encapsulated. You won’t regret how great this thousand year old practice makes you feel, not to mention the littany of positives you derive (increased breast milk, hormone balancing, no PPD, you can even save the extras for when you enter menopause!) I received my dehydrated placenta less than 2 days later — with a keepsake bag containing my daughters precious umbelical cord wrapped and dried into a heart for her baby book.
If my family is blessed with a second child — Courtney will be on the list of my first calls!
OC Doulas and OC Midwifery feel like family — and that kind of bond is exactly what I want with my birthing team.
