As there always existed a keen interest in human behaviour and mental health, Lorraine Stuyt pursued a BSc in Psychology with a minor in Biology and Chemistry at Wilfrid Laurier University. Utmost intrigue was then found in the study of Human Health. When the idea was presented of practicing a medicine that combined both body and mind she quickly found herself enrolled at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine. Lorraine became a licensed Naturopathic Doctor upon graduation from CCNM in 2005.

As a lover of the outdoors, Lorraine places great importance on environmental health in terms of the identification of heavy metal toxicity and chemical sensitivity and the implications of such on endocrine (hormonal) health, cancer, autoimmune conditions and the neurological system. Several specialized labs are employed in her practice that assess various abnormalities including hormone and neurotransmitter imbalances, heavy metal toxicity, gluten intolerances and food sensitivities among many others. She incorporates treatment modalities including, but not exclusive to, botanical medicine, supplementation according to functional medicine, acupuncture, hydrotherapy and mistletoe (HELIXOR) injections for cancer therapy.

Lorraine is an avid volleyball player, a member of PERC (Ottawa Peace and Environment Resource Cenre) and is a volunteer basketball coach with Christie Lake Kids. Look for her monthly newsletter "A Letter to Steward" that will be soon published in print and via e-mail.
