We are seeing a rise in the return to natural remedies. People are becoming interested in old remedies, medicinal herbs, and natural healing methods.
Placenta Remedies are organ-based remedies that some still reject and view as undesirable. However, I have seen an increase in the use of placenta remedies by those who have given birth grow
more and more over my past eight years as a Certified Specialist. The taboos surrounding placenta consumption are decreasing. Many parents are rediscovering the healing power of the placenta. We are also seeing medical studies and research use placenta tissue, stem cells,
and the amniotic membrane to treat diseases, infections, and wound healing.
Placenta remedies, when used by the birthing person, come with additional benefits. The placenta does not contain foreign bacteria, and their composition is entirely based on the birth
person's health and particular needs. Placenta remedies are pure remedies that combine well with other medications and treatments, sometimes increasing their effectiveness.
When the primary role of healing and caring for the family was looked after by Healers, Midwives, Other Mothers, and Grandmothers, placenta remedies were truly treasured. We do not want the
wisdom of these healing remedies lost to Westernized medicine.
