As a Primary Care Practitioner for over 24 years, Dr. Lorraine understands the importance of her patients obtaining balance “with- IN” so that “dis-ease” does not present itself either physically, mentally or both.  Her quest to learning how this “balance” can be achieved, has lead her to over 28 years of continued study in numerous alternative and holistic practices of energy medicine, including indigenous shamanic medicine, ancient vedic healing arts, ayurveda, herbology, sound vibration, meditation and martial arts.  In addition, she maintains daily research on exploring the most innovative conventional medicine findings in nutrition, neuroscience and biology of the body.

This evolution of continued study has lead her and Rich Brodeur to create Aquarian Medicine®, the Aquarian Medicine Shamanic Practitioner™ and the Aquarian Medicine Wheel. Through the practice of Aquarian Medicine® and Kundalini Yoga, Dr. Lorraine continues to help her patients’ discover their capacity for self-healing and higher consciousness naturally.

“In a world with increasing pressure and multi-dimensional stress, energetic balance, meditation, yoga and proper nutrition are no longer luxuries of time, but necessities of survival”
