Most treatment protocols are designed for bodies that respond predictably to stress and load. Hypermobile bodies don’t — and treating them the same way often makes things worse.
We start with gentle passive therapies to calm your nervous system before introducing any active rehabilitation. We progress slowly and deliberately, never pushing your connective tissue beyond what it can handle. And we plan for flares as part of your care — not as setbacks.
The goal isn’t just symptom relief. It’s building a body you can trust again.
Your first visit is a 60-minute consultation — no treatment, just conversation and assessment. We’ll review your health history, discuss your symptoms and goals, and take the time to understand how your body has been responding to daily life and previous treatments.
From there we’ll outline a clear care plan tailored to your presentation and walk you through what to expect going forward.
You’ll leave with answers, a direction, and a plan — not just another appointment scheduled.
Both use the same thin filiform needles and share overlapping mechanisms — the distinction is less important than how your body responds to needling in general.
Some patients respond beautifully to needling. Others — particularly those with hypersensitive nervous systems — do better with manual therapy and movement-based approaches. We assess this at your first visit and build your care plan accordingly.
There’s no wrong answer. There’s only what works for your body.
With HSD and hypermobility, there’s no honest one-size-fits-all answer — and we’d rather be straightforward with you than give you a number that doesn’t reflect your reality.
Our Foundations Program is a focused 4-month program with formal progress reviews every 30 days. If we aren’t seeing meaningful clinical progress at any point — we’ll say so and discuss whether continuing makes sense for you.
Most patients begin noticing changes within the first few weeks. What we can promise is that you’ll always know where you stand and what the next step looks like.
For patients who complete Foundations and benefit from continued care, we offer the Transition Program and Stability Program — structured pathways designed to maintain and build on your progress over the long term.
Performance DNA is currently out-of-network with insurance providers. We provide superbills after each visit that you can submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement — many plans offer partial coverage for acupuncture and integrative medicine services. We recommend contacting your provider directly to verify your benefits.
Our programs:
- Foundations Program — from $400/month
- Stability Program — from $195/month
Individual visits:
- Initial Consultation — $130
- Individual Treatment — $130
All programs include formal progress reviews every 30 days. If we aren’t seeing meaningful clinical progress together, we’ll discuss whether continuing makes sense for you.
