Welcome to Buoyant Bodywork!
My name is Erin McVey and I began practicing manual therapy in 2010. As a young woman, I wanted to understand the physical mechanics and energetic aspects of myself. Over the years, I have honed my skill set to treat the tangible physical body alongside the subtle energetic and emotional bodies. In my experience, these aspects cannot and should not be separated. My ultimate goal, is to support a sense of coming Home. My passion, skill and knowledge coupled with my quenchless curiosity and deep compassion for our shared human condition is a recipe for transformation. I look forward to exploring with you!
