Welcome to CG Massage Therapy!
My name is Carroll Girard and I was born and raised in Plamondon, AB and am a fully Registered Massage Therapist. I graduated from Alberta College of Massage Therapy with a 2200 hour program in June 2025 and offer direct billing with most insurance companies!
What I love most about massage therapy is problem-solving and figuring out what's going on beneath the surface and how to help the body heal itself. I enjoy using assessments to uncover the root of discomfort and then create a treatment plan that works with the body. Easing a client's pain and dyscomfort and providing them with more range of motion and mobility is incredibly rewarding.
I don't shy away from working with areas that can be sensitive or often overlooked - like the deep abdomen, neck, TMJ (inside the mouth), and glutes. These regions can hold a lot of tension and contribute to chronic pain, and I'm comfortable treatment them with care, respect, and clinical precision.
My goal is always to create a safe space where you feel heard and supported, while addressing the root of the issue to help your body function at its best.
The Healing Power of Touch
Touch is one of our most fundamental forms of connection - and in massage therapy, it becomes a powerful took for healing. Skilled, intentional touch can calm the nervous system, ease physical tension, and create a deep sense of safety and support. It helps the body release stress, reconnect with itself, and activate its natural ability to heal.
In a world that often feels rushed and disconnected, therapeutic touch offers a grounding, human experience that speaks directly to the body, mind, and spirit.
Services Offered
Both relaxation and therapeutic services are offered.
Relaxation massage uses Swedish massage strokes aimed at melting away stress, easing muscle tension, and leaving you feeling calm, refreshed, and rebalanced. Whether you need a peaceful pause or a full-body reset, this massage is your invitation to relax and breathe deep.
Therapeutic massage provides a customized approach tailored to your specific needs. Whether you're dealing with chronic pain, muscle tension, or recovering from injury, this targeted treatment combines techniques like deep tissue, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, and joint mobilizations combined with relaxing Swedish massage strokes to support long-term wellness. It's more than relaxation - it's relief with a purpose.
There may be a short assessment at the beginning of the treatment in order to focus on the right areas and apply the most beneficial techniques. It's a small step that makes a big difference in the results you feel. Homecare is also offered to help you along with your recovery - whether from injury or postural imbalances.
