In this episode, I talk with Dr. Ashley Shrum of Calibrated Physical Therapy. She shares her lofty goal of preventing 100,000 overuse injuries in youth volleyball by 2030, why these injuries occur, her strategy to accomplish this goal and educate coaches and athletes, and how you can be a part of this goal. We also talk about deceleration and landing mechanics, why coaches should track growth spurts in youth sports, and the gap between when physical therapy ends and when return to competitive training and competition begins.
Dr. Ashley Shrum, PT, DPT, is a volleyball movement specialist and the owner of Calibrated Physical Therapy. Her mission is to prevent 100 thousand unnecessary youth overuse injuries by the year 2030. She helps educate volleyball coaches on injury prevention and safely reintegrating athletes to the court after injuries occur.
