Ellen Kamhi Ph.D., RN, AHN-BC, RH(AHG) interviewed Dr. Tia Trivisonno ND, L.Ac about the pursuit of better health education for individuals and their families.

About Dr. Trivisonno

Dr. Tia Trivisonno is a naturopathic physician and acupuncturist. Dr. Tia’s passion for naturopathic medicine was born out of love while processing grief from the loss of  her father.  He suffered from complications associated with kidney disease and high blood pressure, and the surgeries and medications he was prescribed failed to deliver a solution.  Dr. Tia remembers when her mother wished someone could intervene who knew how to TREAT THE WHOLE PERSON.  It was at that very moment that Dr Tia became dedicated to the pursuit of better health education for individuals and their families. She is the President of the New York Association of Naturopathic Physicians (NYANP) and is deeply committed to a paradigm shift to more cooperative system of healthcare. She guides patients in two integrative clinical settings on Long Island, New York, Transformational Healing Solutions and Rejuvenation Health.

Ellen Kamhi PhD, RN, interviews Maggie Martakis of Maggies Holistics NY.

Who is Maggies Martakis?

The founder of Maggie’s Holistics, NYC, Maggie is a holistic healer, certified in Reiki and Kundalini yoga with a degree in the Sciences and Art History. She is also currently studying Ayurvedic Medicine.

Dissatisfied with conventional treatments while trying to heal her son’s health issues, as well as her own, Maggie Martakis sought a holistic approach. She discovered that we are exposed daily to radiation, fluorine, chlorine and bromine chemicals, as they can be found in many of our foods, soft drinks, toothpastes, pools, water, air and household chemicals. These chemicals and heavy metals accumulate and get stored in our body interfering with thyroid function, the endocrine glandular system and can cause calcification of our pineal gland (aka third eye) lowering our IQ.

Healthy levels of iodine help prevent toxic build up of these chemicals and with proper diet assists our cells to take in the proper nutrients and minerals. Additional health benefits include increased energy and weight loss. Using this knowledge enabled her to successfully tackle her family’s health issues holistically.
