CENTER FOR PELVIC HEALTH
Welcome to the Center for Pelvic Health.
At Cray Physical Therapy’s Center for Pelvic Health, we proudly provide compassionate, expert care for individuals experiencing pelvic floor dysfunction. Founded by Dr. Shawn Cray, DPT, CSCS, our center delivers high-quality, personalized physical therapy to the South Shore community in a calm, supportive environment.
Our pelvic health team includes highly trained and compassionate physical therapists with a wealth of knowledge and a patient-centered approach to care. From your first visit, you’ll experience one-on-one attention and a therapy plan customized specifically to your needs and goals.
What We Treat
The pelvic floor comprises muscles, ligaments, and connective tissues that support pelvic organs such as the bladder, uterus, and rectum. When these structures become weak, tight, or imbalanced, it can lead to various conditions, including:
-
Dyspareunia (pain during sex)
-
Endometriosis
-
Pelvic organ prolapse
-
Pre- and postnatal dysfunction
-
Hip or abdominal pain
-
Urinary incontinence
-
Interstitial cystitis
-
Bladder and bowel dysfunction
-
Post-surgical care and scar management
These issues affect people of all genders and ages, though they are especially common in women during and after pregnancy.
Our mission is to relieve pain and restore function, confidence, and quality of life.

What Should I Expect?
A pelvic examination and evaluation are not unlike any other orthopedic physical therapy evaluation. Your appointment will include a detailed discussion of your symptoms, followed by an examination to assess posture, range of motion, strength, and movement. The difference between a typical orthopedic examination and a pelvic examination is the potential addition of an internal muscle and soft tissue assessment. Assessment and treatment often include both external and internal techniques. However, we always cater to your needs and comfort level. Together, you and your therapist will work to construct a suitable plan, and we will address both the physical and emotional components of your pelvic dysfunction.
