Clinical Coordinator
Valerie McGuire
Valerie is passionate about fitness and believes movement serves as medicine for the mind, body, and soul. She enjoys a daily routine of building strength and endurance, spending quality time with her husband, and serving as her daughter’s biggest cheerleader. She graduated from National University in 2007 with a Bachelor's degree in Multimedia Design, and the Marine Corps University in 2018 with a Master’s degree in Military Studies. She and her husband, Greg, made their first move to the Lowcountry in 2009 while both were serving in the Marine Corps and, upon Valerie’s retirement in 2020, decided to make Bluffton their forever home. Valerie’s goal at Athlete’s Mechanic is to continue being of service to others by providing compassion and attentiveness to clients and assist them in navigating a pathway to wellness.
