Welcome to Will & Wellness
It is the belief of tribes, communities, villages and nations of people, and even in the instinct of primal animals of this world, that the placenta is the gift given back to the mother to strengthen & heal her after the birthing process. In many cultures, and for thousands of years, the placenta has been honored and treated as sacred. In many 'untouched' or 'uncivilized' places, the placenta is medicine, as it is meant to be.
Zi He Che (the placenta) is listed in the Materia Medica (Chinese Herbal Database) as a vital life force that holds healing properties. It is used to strengthen and tonify the Liver, Kidney, & Lung Qi, to regenerate the body's Qi (Energy or Life Force), Blood, and Yang. In traditional Chinese Medicine, the placenta augments the essence. In other words, it makes ones vital force stronger.
Your placenta is a perfect remedy all in itself, nourishing your baby, through you, from the inside, out and back in again.
