Also called: Placenta Encapsulator
Turns a new mother's placenta into capsules at her request, a postpartum service that is popular but has little scientific evidence behind it.
Picks up a chilled placenta from the hospital or home after a birth, then works in a dedicated clean workspace: steaming, dehydrating, grinding and filling capsules under strict food-safety and bloodborne-pathogen rules. Most also work as birth or postpartum doulas. The CDC has warned about infection risk, so careful hygiene is the whole job.
Estimate; usually a part-time side business charging about $200-$400 per client.
Approximate: anchored on Bureau of Labor Statistics data for a broader job group.
Certificate, about 0.25 years after high school. Short private training course plus bloodborne-pathogen and food-handler certificates.
Ways in: Certification, Self-taught. Training cost: Under $15k.
Growing slowly. Small niche that rises and falls with wellness trends.
Low risk for 10 years. Handling tissue and earning client trust is in-person work; AI only helps with scheduling and social media.
Classes: Biology, Health science, Business.
