Volleyball Injury Clinics in Canada
Shoulder and knee overuse injuries dominate volleyball rehab in Canada.
Volleyball's combination of overhead attacking, repetitive jumping, and hard floor landings creates chronic overuse injuries in the shoulder and knee. Beach volleyball adds lower back and ankle injuries from sand surface instability. Rotator cuff impingement, patellar tendinopathy, and finger injuries from blocking are the most common reasons Canadian volleyball players seek physiotherapy.

Volleyball Injury — Frequently Asked Questions
Why do volleyball players get so many shoulder injuries?
The overhead attacking motion in volleyball requires extreme shoulder external rotation and generates high forces on the rotator cuff with every spike. Over a season, this repeated loading causes rotator cuff impingement, labral irritation, and shoulder instability. Early physiotherapy and rotator cuff strengthening prevents these from becoming serious injuries.
How is volleyball knee pain (jumper's knee) treated?
Patellar tendinopathy in volleyball players is treated with heavy slow resistance training focused on eccentric loading of the patellar tendon, combined with load management during the season. In-season management differs from off-season treatment. An experienced sports physio will tailor the approach to your competition schedule.
