The Aima approach
"Your symptoms aren't an inconvenience to be silenced.
They are a language your body is asking you to learn."
- Lara Brown
What I work with
The conditions
women are told to
just live with.
Whether you've had a label for years or you simply know something isn't right - we work at the root, not the symptom. Functional testing, mitochondrial support and effective nutrition that fits your real life.
PCOS & PMOS
Move beyond the pill and metformin. We identify your unique PCOS / PMOS driver - insulin, inflammation, adrenal or post-pill - and address it at the root.
- Insulin & blood sugar work
- Inflammation mapping
- Cycle restoration
PMS, Acne & Cycle Confusion
Whether you're a teenager or an adult, if you have hormonal acne, cyclical anxiety, painful or absent periods, this isn't normal, and together we can solve it.
- Estrogen metabolism
- Liver & gut support
- Skin-from-within protocols
Thyroid Conditions
Hashimoto's, hypothyroid, sluggish conversion. We look beyond TSH to the full thyroid picture and the nutrients, stress and gut terrain underneath.
- Full thyroid panels
- Nutrient repletion
- Autoimmune root work
Infertility
Often what's called 'infertility' is a body that hasn't been given the conditions to ovulate. Missed cycle signs, years on the pill, quiet nutrient deficiencies, under-sleep, over-stress. And before we look at any of that, up to half of cases involve sperm health. Real, resolvable causes, without immediately turning to pharmaceutical intervention.
- Ovulation confirmation & cycle tracking
- Nutrient, stress and lifestyle foundations
- Male fertility considered too
Meet Lara
I built Aima Health for
the woman I used to be.
Years of being handed the pill, dismissed by GPs, and told my blood tests were "fine" while I was anything but, led me into functional medicine and circadian health. What I learned changed my life. Now I sit with women through the same fog, and we find the clearing together.

The name
What does
Aima mean?
Aima is a name inspired by its meanings across cultures and languages. Take the Greek for blood, aíma - αίμα - the sacred life force of the womb from which life is created. Blood, so often associated with harm or aversion, is something women are intimately connected to from puberty to menopause. It contains vital health signals and is now being studied for its healing stem cells.
In Sanskrit, Aiṃ - ऐं - has meanings ranging from the divine wisdom of nature to a mantra for expression and communication, historically denied to women. In Arabic, aima carries meanings of noble, blessed, leader, and source of life. In Nigerian cultures, it is associated with life itself. In Spanish, alma, a paronym, means soul, echoing mind-body integration.
The Hebrew Ima (אמא) means mother. Whether or not a woman bears children, she belongs to the collective feminine from which life emerges. Every human is born of a woman, though women have long been repressed by the very societies they sustain.
