About HPM

HPM is North Carolina’s integrated performance health practice — a coaching-led, clinically supported system that unites exercise, medicine, physical therapy, and nutrition under one multidisciplinary model.
We work with anyone committed to improving their health, performance, and longevity — from active individuals and executives to those recovering from injury or managing chronic issues.
We’re based in North Carolina, with in-person and virtual services available across the state.

We bridge the gap between fitness and medicine. Coaching is at the center — guided by exercise science and supported by clinicians, including PCPs, DPTs, and RDs — to deliver complete, coordinated care.
Your performance coach, physician, physical therapist, and dietitian all collaborate behind the scenes to create one cohesive plan designed around your health and goals.
No. Our physicians complement your existing care, focusing on performance, prevention, and optimization rather than reactive treatment.

Begin with an HPM Consult Call to discuss your goals, health history, and lifestyle. From there, we’ll design a personalized assessment and integrated plan.
We evaluate movement, strength, metabolic health, and other key metrics to build a data-driven baseline for your personalized program.
Yes. While we’re based in North Carolina, many of our services — including coaching, nutrition, and some clinical consults — are available virtually.

Memberships vary by level, but all include personalized coaching, program design, and ongoing communication. Higher tiers integrate physical therapy, medical oversight, and nutrition guidance.
Our multidisciplinary team includes:
- Performance Coaches
- Primary Care Physicians (MDs)
- Physical Therapists (DPTs)
- Registered Dietitians (RDs)
Frequency depends on your plan and goals. Most members have weekly coaching contact, with assessment and clinical visits scheduled as needed.

We operate on a direct-care model and do not bill insurance. However, many services may qualify for HSA or FSA reimbursement.
Memberships are customized based on your needs and level of integration. During your consult, we’ll review options and pricing transparently.
Yes. You can adjust, pause, or cancel your plan anytime with notice.

No. We are a performance health practice focused on proactive, long-term wellbeing — not emergency or acute medical care.
Yes. Depending on your membership tier, we may coordinate lab panels, VO₂ max testing, metabolic assessments, or movement screenings.
We track key metrics like movement efficiency, VO₂ max, strength, metabolic health, blood biomarkers, and body composition to show measurable progress over time.
