Traditional Chinese Medicine has been using placenta medicinally for thousands of years. One of the well-known TCM uses for placenta, or Z\u00ee h\u00e9 che, is to help with insufficient lactation as well as postpartum-recovery and the prevention of postpartum depression. In fact, in many traditional cultures, the placenta is revered for its great restorative capacities. According to TCM, placenta is considered to be a very powerful medicine as it is life giving and is a storehouse of Vital Essence for the baby. Placenta is often included in traditional medicinal combinations with restorative functions. As placenta is a completely natural substance, created by a woman’s own body, the therapeutic use of the placenta is definitely worth considering as part of a holistic postpartum recovery for every expectant woman.<\/p>\n
