Earseeds:

Ear seeding is a health practice that involves acupressure on the ear. The “seed” or metal ball in many cases is held against the skin with a piece of tape, thus pressing the seed into the acupoint. The ear is innervated by the vagus nerve (otherwise known as the wandering nerve) which also innervates the heart, lungs, and digestive system. The vagus nerve to ear connection is what is thought to be responsible for the efficacy of auricular (ear) acupuncture for conditions involving different areas of the body since the ear is a microsystem in Chinese Medicine. Because of this, there are points in the ear that can be used to help with any condition- from back pain to allergies!

Ear Seeding Points Example: Shen Men, Heart, Kidney, Liver, Sympathetic

Since a young age, Melody knew that she wanted to be a healthcare practitioner to help others on their journey to health. She attended Rochester Institute of Technology and studied Biomedical Sciences. After her Bachelor’s degree, she discovered acupuncture and loved that the paradigm is about treating both the root and the branch of the illness. She later enrolled at the Finger Lakes School of Acupuncture and New York Chiropractic College. While in school, she discovered not only a passion for Traditional Chinese Medicine but also what acupuncture could do for her patients.

After graduating, Melody took a particular interest in the life cycle and in the transitions we make as we go through events such as birth and death. This led her to pursue her certification in Hospice and Palliative Care Acupuncture as well as her DONA training as a Doula. Melody is continuing her learning constantly in order to stay up to date and provide her patients the best care possible.

Melody has taken continuing education in Fertility, Treating Endocrine Conditions with Acupuncture, Pregnancy and Labor Practice, Pelvic Floor Dysfunction, Microneedling, Facial Gua Sha, Placenta Encapsulation, and Childbirth Education.

Zach Osgood

Zach is a Certified Expert Sound Healer, Reiki Master, Certified Cacao Facilitator and Trauma-Informed Practitioner. His aim is to bring balance to his clients' vital energies and provide an enhanced sense of relaxation and wellbeing. Zach believes that the body is naturally designed to heal itself when given the right conditions.

Since Zach was a child, he has been able to see colors and shapes much like wavelengths around people. As he learned more about Chakras, he was able to take notice of the color correspondences and their ties to emotion and physical ailments as well as the things that a person’s aura could tell him about them. When he attended FLCC, he took a course called Therapeutic Touch and that course really inspired him. He then learned about Reiki and the effects that it can have. After he received his own Reiki healing, he came to a deeper understanding of this gift and feel compelled to share it with others.

Zach took his Reiki training and attunement in September of 2021 and has followed it up pursuing his Reiki Master designation in 2024. He started his Sound Healer journey in 2023 and has completed his Level 1, Level 2 and Expert Certification. He has been working closely with his wife where they combine his sound healing and spiritual gifts with her acupuncture talents- both in private sessions as well as in group settings.

Zach completed a Cacao Ceremony Facilitator course in 2024 as well and he has been hosting Cacao Ceremonies- in combination with sound baths and AcuSound since 2024.

When he is not tuning chakras, he likes to spend time with his wife, son, two cats and dog. He loves learning more about the natural world around us and tending his garden, foraging for herbs, nerding out about mushrooms, and playing his guitar.
